Valves, Actuators & Pump Control
BMG Hydraulics distributes a wide range of valves that withstands operation in rigorous applications, ensuring reliable and continuous performance in the most demanding industries.
“An important part of our business is in the supply and servicing of hydraulic valves. The company’s leading range of hydraulic valves, manufactured by Eaton Vickers, extends from simple shut off valves to precise directional control valves used in advanced motion control systems,” says Greg Lester, managing director of BMG Hydraulics, the newest member of the Bearing Man Group. “Hydraulic valves work in tandem with hydraulic cylinders, pumps and motors, to contain the flow and pressure of hydraulic fluid in hydraulic power systems. Typical applications are found in machine tools, mining, automotive, metalworking, power generation and construction.”
The company’s range consists of spool type directional control valves (from NG 6 to NG 32), proportional valves in directional, throttle and pressure control types, slip-in cartridge valves (from NG 16 to NG 80) and modular screw-in cartridge valves.
Vickers proportional hydraulic valves – with or without integrated OBE (on board electronics) – ensure optimum power consumption and improved machine operating time. These valves have a rated working pressure up to 350 bar and are designed to meet precise requirements.
Compact slip-in cartridge valves improve the efficiency of the latest hydraulic machines and equipment. New cartridge valve and system technology enhances the flexibility of the system; ensures reliability, offers greater resistance to contamination and eliminates external leakage.
Other valves in the BMG Hydraulics range include Galtech hand control valves, Pister high pressure ball valves, Bieri high pressure directional control and Oleoweb control valves, as well as Larzep high pressure equipment.
