Cartridge valve technology can help engineers accomplish the following:
-Reduce hydraulic “footprint” by reducing the space needed for hydraulics in the machine by
10 to 20 percent.
-“Lighten up” the machine by reducing weight as well as space
-Distribute and “right-size” hydraulic controls
-Prevent hydraulic leakage by reducing the number of leakage points and conserving hydraulic
fluid for a more “green” machine
-Streamline a system to reduce pressure drop through lines and pipes.
