Hydrodynamic Drive and Braking - uses hydraulic pressures to start, drive and brake
the extractor. There are no disk brakes to wear out. As the extractor is being slowed,
The momentum of the extractor is absorbed by the hydraulic fluid. As the pressure of
the fluid builds, the pressure is transferred into heat. The heat is removed and the
extractor is stopped. The system is non-mechanical.
Why Bother?
High Usage Rates - No Limits on Starts Per Hour.
Reliability - Very Low Maintenance
Standard Hydraulic Motor - See below.
No Brake System Maintenance
No Belt Tightening
No Drag LInk Assembly
Eliminates Special Motors - Standard hyrdaulic motor vs. specialized electrical motor.
