Variable displacement axial piston pumps adjust the geometric delivery volume from maximum to zero. As a result they vary the volumetric flow that is provided to the loads. The axial piston pump type V30E is designed for open circuits according to the swash plate principle. It is available with the option of a thru-shaft for operating additional hydraulic pumps in series. The sturdy pump is particularly suitable for continuous operation in challenging applications. The range of pump controllers allows the axial piston pump to be used in a variety of applications.
