What is a Hydraulic Motor
Hydraulic Motor: The decent of fluid from a higher to a lower level, through a properly designed machine, suitably regulated as to speed by the imposing of certain resisting forces to prevent the acceleration of the motion of the machine, may be made the means of furnishing certain pressures or working forces, acting at different parts of the machine, by whose action a steady or uniform motion of the machine may be kept up notwithstanding the presents of the resisting forces. In such a case the continuous overcoming of the resistances is said to be accomplished by fluid power, and the machine is called a hydraulic motor.
Increase efficiency and reduce space needed with the power of a hydraulic motor. You might need a hydraulic motor to solve torque, force, speed, or space problems. Sometimes the best way to produce the results you need is with a hydraulic motor; sometimes there is no other way to do what is required without a hydraulic motor.
See Types of Hydraulic Motors.
