About the Book
Rotary actuators are the muscle behind the rotary motions in industrial and mobile hydraulic systems. Information and data on hydraulic motors are spread in many existing textbooks and documents in the manufacturer’s domain. This paper attempts to present the information and data in one book in a simple and structured way.
The book presents the fundamentals and other essential technical information about hydraulic motors. The topics are logically arranged to progress from simple to complex levels of subject matter using the English system of units.
