Hydraulic systems play a crucial role in the operation of heavy vehicles, enabling them to perform essential functions with power and efficiency. From dump trucks to bucket trucks, vacuum trucks, and other specialized vehicles, hydraulics are the backbone of lifting, dumping, and other mechanical operations. In this blog, we’ll explore how hydraulic systems work, their applications in different types of trucks, and maintenance tips to ensure optimal performance.
1. Understanding Hydraulic Systems in Heavy Vehicles
Hydraulic systems operate based on Pascal’s Law, which states that pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted equally in all directions. This principle enables hydraulic systems to generate immense force with relatively low input, making them ideal for heavy lifting and load management.
A basic hydraulic system consists of:
