versatile hydraulic pump manufacturer

MontanaSo does anyone know the GPM of the rear pump on my 875 and how much GPM will the acessory drive handle off the rear,I now have a 17.5 GPM pump on a 855 I use for my 2320 cart and I hooked it up to my 1910 air cart and it only ran a few hundred RPM I knew it would be too small but wanted to see the end results. The two pump set up on the 875 from the factory would run the 1910 cart fine but then I would have to turn the fan off to raise the implement and then turn it back on when in the ground again pain in the butt ,but it works.I now have separated the two pumps and am using the front one for steering and implements with the addition of a priority valve and it works fine and the rear for the fan,but I can only get 3000 rpm at max engine RPM and I usually only run about 1900 RPM when seeding so I need to know how much torque will the rear drive handle if it could take a 25 GPM pump.This is on a 60 foot JD air seeder.I am assuming the rear is probably a 21 GPM?

Elevāt, a global IoT connected machines SaaS innovator, announced that Versatile, a division of Buhler Industries Inc., deployed the Elevāt Machine Connect platform across its entire tractor line for Model Year 2022. Since starting tractor production in 1966, Versatile has remained a leader for articulating four-wheel drive tractors.

“We manufacture all our tractors in our factory in Winnipeg, Manitoba. As the only Canadian agricultural tractor manufacturer, we pride ourselves on our leadership in manufacturing, assembly, and research and development,” said Erron Leafloor, Versatile.

“The team at Versatile came to Elevāt looking for a solution that would support remote diagnostics, predictive maintenance and deliver capabilities like over-the-air (OTA) updates, geofencing and geotracking, and proactive telematics reports. Also, advanced features like virtual technician support and command and control supported Versatile’s dedication to advanced innovation. They also wanted a fully white-labeled portal experience that aligned with the Versatile brand and delivered a customer experience that supported Versatile’s long-held commitment to customer service,” said Adam Livesay, Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Officer, Elevāt.

The company’s four-wheel drives and Delta Track are equipped with a standard 53 gpm (201 lpm) pump or an optional 106 gpm (401 lpm) high-flow pump hydraulic system. The closed-center, load-sensing hydraulic system provides ample capacity for implements that demand high hydraulic flow by providing pressure and flow on demand. When no hydraulic power is required, the system goes into low-pressure standby to conserve energy, providing more power at the drawbar.

Finger-tip controls manage the hydraulic functions and hydraulic flow can be increased and decreased using the monitor. Hydraulic settings can be displayed on the monitor for quick reference.

“Hydraulics are a critical power transmission system in our tractors, utilizing a significant percentage of our engine horsepower in some field applications. With the aid of telematics, we are able to better understand the power needs of our hydraulic system so that we can improve its performance, and the overall efficiency of the tractor, in the future,” Leafloor said. “We use electronically controlled valves and various hydraulic system monitoring sensors throughout our tractors. Current capabilities, along with future functionality, of our telematics system will allow it to track usage trends and fault codes from the entire hydraulic system to better support our customers with maintenance and service needs.”

“One of the biggest challenges for agricultural machines is they are often geographically dispersed and this makes routine checks costly and time consuming. Hydraulic systems are a critical system for the operation of tractors,” said Livesay. “Remotely monitoring these systems helps eliminate manual processes and saves time and money.

“Elevāt cloud-based IoT monitoring means sensors can be installed to monitor hydraulic systems from anywhere in the world. Once a data connection is established, minimum and maximum values can be set and condition alerts can be automatically sent. In addition, for manufacturers, the ability to customize the Elevāt  Machine Connect portal means they can provide a full customer experience that allows end users to track the data that is most important to their operation.”

Regarding hydraulics, we can focus on three basic principles: social, environmental, and economic. The sustainability message helps a company focus on the long term, increasing efficiency, eliminating waste, and providing a safer environment for employees while strengthening the company’s brand,

With existing hydraulic systems operating throughout the world there is always room for improvements regarding sustainable manufacturing. At the end of the day, for most companies it is about production, how many parts per shift and per day, and so forth. Changing machines is costly and may not make sense in the short term. Many companies are reviewing alternative options for new builds or upgrades and how to make them more sustainable.

For hydraulics, options available today include electromechanical actuators (EMAs). Some companies have tried EMAs with limited success. Many EMAs are not up to the hydraulic robustness or are not cost effective. Other options include techniques to make the hydraulic power unit more efficient, such as installing a timer to turn off the HPU motor when not operating for so many minutes. Or using a variable-frequency drive to control a pump motor or implement servo-controlled HPUs. The servo power unit is becoming popular; it minimizes or eliminates hoses and hydraulic connections and provides power on demand while offering more control capabilities.

What ifthere was a technology that combines the best features of hydraulics and the electromechanical technologies? And what if that technology also reduces the challenges? The Kyntronics

Environmental. The SHA is a self-contained hydraulic actuator that discharges no contamination, doesn’t leak, and uses a minimal amount of fluid. Even with a catastrophic tow-motor incident, a mop can clean up most spills.

Saving time and money. With the SHA, the hydraulic infrastructure design time is eliminated, as are maintenance challenges. The SHA is simple to install. Bolt it up, connect the wires, setup the parameters, connect the fieldbus as needed, and it is ready to perform.

The SHA is a versatile solution that combines benefits from established successful technologies while solving sustainability challenges. It meets current needs and will help future generations to meet theirs. The SHA is one small tool in a toolbox that can make a change.
