BAUER Maschinen GmbH has officially honored HAWE Hydraulik with the Supplier of the Year 2022 award.

Having the background of significantly improved profitability and balance sheet structure, HAWE Hydraulik SE has concluded a new syndicated loan agreement with a term of 5 years and a volume of EUR 130 million.

A new digital valve amplifier has been developed for the valve-controlled press brake systems from HAWE Hydraulik, which is precisely tailored to the requirements. With SIL3, this meets the requirements for machine safety for press brakes.

Potential savings for energy and resources are also in great demand in press brakes. With the servo drive in both the valve and speed-controlled press controls, HAWE Hydraulik offers a wide product range that meet these requirements. At the same time, they also enable an increase in the speed of the pressing cycle and thus the overall productivity.

Pitch controls and pitch drives are used to reliably adjust the blade angle to the wind in wind turbines. These are also a guarantee for the best possible energy yield from wind power and must work reliably over the entire service life of the plant. Current development trends show a continuous increase in pitch activity. At the same time, the functionality of the drives has a considerable influence on the service life of other components such as the tower and foundation.

In the event of an emergency or planned maintenance/service, the turning of the fast shaft of the gearbox in a wind turbine must be braked safely or kept safe after stopping. For this purpose, a disc brake is positioned on the shaft in medium and large wind turbines. This can be reliably triggered and operated by a hydraulic power pack with attached manifold. Depending on the size of the brakes, HAWE Hydraulik quickly and easily designs the right compact hydraulic power pack from the modular system.
