Hydraulic Schematic Motor Grader Caterpillar
The hydraulic system of a motor grader is a complex system that uses the hydraulic principle to control various machine functions. Motor graders are used in the construction and road building industry to level surfaces. Improve road surfaces and perform other work.
The main components of a motor grader’s hydraulic system include:
Hydraulic pump: This is a device that converts mechanical energy into the energy of motion of a fluid (hydraulic oil). The hydraulic pump creates the pressure that is needed to move the fluid through the system.
Hydraulic cylinders: These are cylinders with a piston inside that are driven by the pressure of the hydraulic fluid due to the action of hydraulic pumps. Cylinders are used to control the movement of various parts of the motor grader, such as the frame, blade, etc.
Hydraulic motors: These are devices that use hydraulic fluid pressure to create rotational motion. Motors can be used to drive wheels or other parts of the motor grader.
Distributor (valve block): This is the unit that controls the direction of movement of the hydraulic fluid. It has valves that open and close to direct pressure to the various hydraulic cylinders and motors.
This system of a motor grader allows the operator to precisely control various movements and functions of the machine. Such as raising and lowering the blade, tilting the frame, rotating the wheels, and other operations that help in leveling and improving the surface.
