Transition to Intelligent Hydraulic Systems: The Silent Revolution That Comes with IoT

Transition to Intelligent Hydraulic Systems: The Silent Revolution That Comes with IoT

Hydraulic systems have been the unsung heroes of our industry for decades. These systems, which work like muscle power in numerous areas from cranes to construction machines, from press systems to special machines, are now on the verge of a new era: They are digitalized with IoT.
But is this transformation just a matter of adding a few sensors? Of course not. In fact, this is a radical transformation that will change the entire way we do business.

"IoT" Is Not Just Technology, It's A Map Of Opportunity

IoT, or "Internet of Things", allows machines to talk to each other and to you. What does this mean in hydraulic systems? Real-time monitoring of parameters such as pressure, temperature, flow. Notifying you before malfunctions occur. Prevention of energy waste. Briefly; Control is now in your hands.

A Real-Life Example: Why Do You Need IoT?

Imagine, a concrete pump running on site suddenly stopped. Problem; Valve jamming due to contamination inside the hose. This stance is both a waste of time and serious financial damage.

If the pressure change and pollution level in the system were monitored by sensors; The fault could have been detected in advance. Maintenance could be planned, unplanned downtime could be avoided. The team could have continued to work in a safer environment.

This is where IoT makes a difference.

What do we do as Hidroman?

We combine the experience we have gained from thousands of systems working in the field for years with digital transformation.
Our Hydraulic Cylinder Disassembly Bench analyzes failure trends with its integrated sensors.
Our Ultra Clean Hose Cleaning Unit makes the cleaning process measurable and traceable. The mobile application we have developed offers instant support to technicians in the field.

And most importantly; We develop all these solutions with a human focus. Because technology only makes sense in the right hands.

3 Big Gains That Come With IoT

  1. Predictive Maintenance:
    Maintenance is performed with data-based prediction before a malfunction occurs. Thus, the risks of failure are minimized.
  2. Energy and Time Saving:
    How much load does the system under, at what times does it work, where and how much energy does it consume? With all this data, processes are optimized.
  3. Data-Driven Decision Making:
     Field data guides you not only to the health of the system, but also to make investment decisions.

So where to start?

  • First of all, get to know your system well.
  • Identify the critical points: Hoses, valves or pumps?
  • Start a small pilot project.
  • Collect and analyze data and continuously improve the process.

Remember, it's a process. But when you take the right steps, the hydraulic systems of the future will be waiting for you.

The Future Belongs to the Smart One

Digitalization is no longer a luxury, it is a necessity. Smartening your hydraulic systems is one of the shortest ways to add value to your business. As Hidroman, we are with you in this transformation.
