Hydraulics is the technology that enables power transmission and modulation through a pressurized fluid, converting mechanical energy into hydraulic energy (pressure and flow rate) and back into mechanical work. It is widely used in industrial applications such as machine tools, presses, automation systems, construction machinery and mobile equipment.
The operating principle is based on three key stages: hydraulic power generation through volumetric pumps, control and regulation via valves and dedicated components, and final conversion into mechanical work through actuators and motors. The main advantages of hydraulics are high power density, precise pressure and flow control, and reliability even under demanding operating conditions.
