Solution | Application of IO-Link Smart Sensors in Hydraulic Systems

Hydraulic systems are widely applied in key equipment such as injection molding machines, hydraulic machine tools, lifting equipment, and construction vehicles due to their excellent energy conversion efficiency and powerful driving capabilities...
Basic Structure and Monitoring Requirements of Hydraulic Systems

A hydraulic system consists of power elements (hydraulic pumps), actuating elements (hydraulic cylinders, hydraulic motors), control elements (hydraulic valves), and auxiliary elements (oil tanks, filters, coolers)...
- Hydraulic pumps convert mechanical energy into hydraulic energy;
- Actuating elements perform mechanical actions using hydraulic energy;
- Control elements precisely regulate the direction, pressure, and flow of hydraulic oil;
- Auxiliary elements ensure oil cleanliness and appropriate temperature.
Key physical parameters to monitor include:
- Pressure – to ensure load stability;
- Flow rate – to maintain system efficiency;
- Temperature – to prevent oil overheating;
- Fluid level – to prevent pump dry running.
