Our powerful, single circuit hydraulic systems are ideally suited to operate a spreader or snow plough with all functions - including optional plough relief - economically and safely. On passenger cars, the system is driven by a belt drive approved by the vehicle manufacturer, and the electrical connection and disconnection of the pump drive is effected smoothly via a magnetic coupling. On trucks, the system is driven by a reliable belt drive or by means of a power take-off. The hydraulic power is available both when stationary and while driving. In order to provide the required flow rate at the nominal speed of the truck at any time, gear pumps are available in different sizes depending on the desired application.

A dual circuit hydraulic system allows a snow plough and spreader to be driven simultaneously. The optional plough relief is also possible here. Particularly noteworthy: The two hydraulic circuits do not influence each other, which means that both the spreader and the snow plough can call up their individually required output in every situation without restriction. The dual circuit hydraulic system is driven via a belt drive or via the manufacturer's specific engine power take-off. These are, of course, approved by the vehicle manufacturer concerned.

If an emergency vehicle is to be ready for maximum use, an LS hydraulic system is recommended. The basis of the system is a Load Sensing (LS) pump, with the help of which the various attachments and mounted implements such as front and side snow ploughs, spreaders, tippers, cranes, etc. can be driven and operated particularly efficiently. The LS pump is driven by the truck-specific power take-off. The special advantage of the LS system is the constant delivery rate, which is automatically adjusted to the respective requirements of the individual machines. If no hydraulic power is required, the LS pump automatically reduces to the lowest power. Thanks to this demand control of the optimum delivery volume, power losses are reduced to a minimum, and fuel consumption and the associated emission values are also significantly reduced.

If there is no possibility of a belt drive on the motor side, an electro-hydraulic system can be used to operate, for example, the mounted plough including optional plough relief or other attachments with low power supply. The system is characterised by particularly quiet running. The robust and modular hydraulic system consists of three compact components: the electro-hydraulic pump unit, the control valve block and the control panel.

All de-mountable spreaders can be driven by different systems. One of the solutions is the "Rotopower drive" where the drive power is taken from the wheel hub of the rear axle of the carrier vehicle. The Rotopower drive, which is very easy to install, is used to supply the spreader with oil. This is a robust and very flexible mounting solution, so that the vehicle's range of applications is not restricted and the carrier vehicle can be quickly converted from winter to summer operation.
