Summary
The LC and KC Frame variable motors consist of five unique rotating groups with displacements of 20cc/r, 25cc/r, 30cc/r, 38cc/r, and 45cc/r. The motor is spring biased to maximum displacement and hydraulically shifted to minimum displacement. Minimum and maximum displacement can be set with fixed internal stops. The large diameter servo piston allows smooth acceleration and deceleration with relatively large circuit orificing.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main application of the KC45 Cartridge Type Motor?
The KC45 is specifically designed for wheel drive applications, intended to work seamlessly with planetary gearboxes in compact spaces like wheel ends.
What is the maximum pressure rating for this motor?
This motor supports high-pressure operations with a maximum rated working pressure of up to 400 bar.
Does the motor support different displacement settings?
Yes, it is a two-position variable motor. Minimum and maximum displacements can be set using fixed internal stops, ranging from 20cc/r to 45cc/r depending on the rotating group.
How does the motor handle acceleration and deceleration?
The motor features a large diameter servo piston which ensures smooth acceleration and deceleration, even with relatively large circuit orificing.
Are there optional features available for the KC45 motor?
Yes, optional features include a flushing valve for closed-loop systems and an integrated speed sensor for monitoring output performance.
What makes the cartridge design advantageous?
The cartridge design allows for direct connection to the gearbox, resulting in a very short and compact assembly that is ideal for space-constrained installations.
