What is a Soft-starter and comparisons
The Soft-Starter start bases its use on the ease of being controlled, to produce soft starts according to the needs of the elevator.
What is a direct and star-delta start?
The connection of the motors used to operate elevators, hoists, lifts, etc., which are the ones that do the “hard work” in the installation, produce unnecessary intensity peaks on a daily basis.
Maintenance of hydraulic oil and tank of a hydraulic power station
The tank of a hydraulic power station, in itself, is one of the main elements of the hydraulic circuit, since it stores and treats the hydraulic fluid through which energy is transmitted to the different control and command components.
Flexible and rigid hoses: What they are used for, measurements and characteristics
The main function of rigid and flexible pipes is to connect the valve group and the piston (via the parachute valve).
Mechanical safety device: for forklifts and car lifts (I)
Pawl Device is a safety device with a mechanical anti-drift system. Its function is to provide greater safety in loading/unloading operations by always maintaining the cabin-floor level.
Electronic technology applied to hydraulic elevators
Today, electronic technology has allowed hydraulic elevators to take a great step in the field of energy efficiency, thereby reducing their consumption.
GMV training in APA and COAM
The training course carried out by GMV on March 15th for the APA (Quantity Surveyors and Technical Architects of Barcelona) was a great success. With more than 90 participants, the training was carried out in the APA's assembly hall.
Differences between conventional pistons and telescopic pistons
Pistons, also known as cylinders, are basically divided into two categories: conventional (characterized by being single-stage) and telescopic (which have 2 to 4 stages).
How can we extend the life of hydraulic equipment and improve its performance?
Hydraulic equipment usually has a useful life of about 20 years, provided that it is properly maintained.
Training and Technical Conferences on hydraulics aimed at the APA and the COAM
During the month of March 2010, GMV will hold training sessions and technical conferences aimed at the APA (Qualifying Surveyors and Technical Architects of Barcelona) and the COAM (Official College of Architects of Madrid).
