Hydraulic Servicing During Summer Shutdown

mike — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 08:02:15 +0000

Our Service Engineers are available for servicing hydraulic equipment and systems during maintenance periods. The up a coming summer shut down period is approaching and we are scheduling our engineers time.

We have fully equipped vans and capable engineers who have a wealth of experience of proactive hydraulic system maintenance.

Leave it to us to manage your hydraulic systems health.

How much energy are you wasting using gear pumps instead of variable delivery pumps? We have done a quick analysis, which is detailed in the link below. We hope you find it of interest.

Hydraulic Systems & Power Packs

mike — Thu, 12 Apr 2012 10:57:05 +0000

We have manufactured bespoke hydraulic systems and power packs since we started the business. MGR get invloved in the difficult systems, because we have the knowledge and experience to provide a solution for you.

The link below gives you a flavour of some of our systems. If you think we can produce a solution for you then call 01926 420847.

New Hydraulic System Applications

mike — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 13:24:18 +0000

MGR Fluid Power has recently designed and manufactured two complete electrohydraulic sytems.

The first is a test rig for use in a University. The system comprised of a power pack, proportional valve , test frame and cylinder with and LVDT. The system was designed to control the speed and load on the cylinder.

The scond system was for use on a moving floor in a theme park. The system comprised of a power pack, eight cylinders controlled by eight proportional valves. The system worked in tandem with the ride control system to position a floor, simulating a lift system.

Two examples of our capability to design and supply electrohydraulic systems.

Leak Free Hydraulics

In the 1980′s British Steel Stainless produced a document outlining the cost of hydraulic leaks. We have updated the document reflecting today’s prices of oil. The link below takes you to our 2012 update. We think you may find it interesting and hopefully persuade you to be proactive about your leaks.

Standard Hydraulic Systems

mike — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 21:05:03 +0000

Prelaunch of our standard hydraulic systems range, with power consumption from 1.5 kW to 11 kW. You have a range of flows and pressures to select from and options on valves and controls. Our power packs are designed to be of a high quality, reliable and offer value for money. You could be pleasantly surprised with one of our standard systems.

Call 01926 420847 today for further details.

Hydraulic Data Logging – Case Study

mike — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 10:19:15 +0000

You can’t see inside a hydraulic system, the best alternative is to gather important information such as pressure and flow. Taking a trace of the pressure over a period of time can reveal problems and help you find a solution quicker and less costlier than by guessing. Data logging can also help with predictive maintenance; if you data log when the machine is working well then you have a benchmark with which to check your system against. Any degradation can be identified and action taken before it becomes a problem.

Our latest case study looks our data logging a real problem. Case Study – Hydraulic Data Logging

Standard Hydraulic Power Packs

mike — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 16:18:00 +0000

The Holy Grail of the Hydraulic Systems Builder?

Many have tried to design and manufacture the standard hydraulic system and many have failed. The problem is there is no such thing as standard and each customer wants different: valves, filters, instrumentation, reservoir size, cooling etc.

At MGR we are not trying to reinvent the ;we are looking to design systems, to reduce lead time and cost, whilst maintaining reliability, performance and safety.

We are introducing a range of power packs from 1.1 kW to 11 kW that will contain the basic components. You then tell us the non standard part and we will accommodate.

We will keep you up to date of the developments.

New Year – New Resolutions

mike — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 15:24:35 +0000

Treat your hydraulic machinery better this year with proactive maintenance. Your car runs better and more reliably with maintenance so why won’t your production machinery? Hydraulic systems can be very reliable as long as they are kept clean and run at a reasonable temperature.

Old hydraulic systems will run and run but they will be inherently inefficient due to internal oil leakage. New components have tighter tolerances and are more efficient but are less tolerant to dirt.

Treat your machinery to a standard service and get a more efficient, better performing and more reliable hydraulic system.
