The2K Series hydraulic orbit motor is a type of low-speed, high-torque (LSHT) hydraulic motor designed for applications requiring robust power transmission, precise control, and durability under heavy loads. Below is a structured breakdown of its core attributes, technical specifications, and applications:
------
1. Technical Overview
• Working Principle:
• Based on thegerotor (orbital gear) mechanism, where an inner rotor (eccentric pin-driven) rotates within a fixed outer stator, creating multiple sealed chambers.
• Hydraulic fluid pressure forces the rotor to orbit, converting hydraulic energy into mechanical torque.
• Key Advantages:
• High Torque at Low Speeds: Ideal for applications requiring heavy lifting (e.g., winches, augers).
• Compact Design: Smaller size compared to gear motors for similar torque outputs.
• Efficiency: Typically 70–85% mechanical efficiency, reducing energy loss.
• Bidirectional Operation: Reversible flow enables forward/reverse motion without mechanical changes.

• Construction:
• Excavator swing drives, trencher rollers, and concrete mixer drives.
• Agriculture:
• Harvester reels, grain augers, and fertilizer spreaders.
• Mining & Forestry:
• Drill rigs, winch systems, and log splitters.
• Marine:
• Anchor winches, deck cranes, and thruster propulsion.
• Industrial Machinery:
• Plastic injection molding machines, conveyor drives, and hydraulic presses.

4. Key Features for Reliability
• High-Pressure Sealing:
• Advanced shaft seals (e.g., Viton® O-rings) prevent fluid leaks under high pressure.
• Corrosion Resistance:
• Nickel-plated rotors and stainless-steel shafts for marine/chemical environments.
• Modular Design:
• Swappable ports, valves, and brakes for customization (e.g., brake-integrated models for safety).
• Thermal Management:
• Optional cooling fins or external fluid circuits for continuous duty cycles.

5. Comparison with Alternatives
【表格】
Metric 2K Series Orbit Motor Gear Motor Piston Motor
Torque Density High (compact design) Medium Very High
Speed Range Low (50–500 RPM) High (1,000+) Medium
Cost Moderate Low High
Noise Level Quiet (orbital design) Loud (gear mesh) Moderate
Best For:
• Applications needinghigh torque at low speeds(e.g., winches, augers).
• Space-constrained systems where compactness is critical.
Avoid For:
• High-speed applications (e.g., fans, centrifuges).
• Budget-sensitive projects where gear motors suffice.

6. Maintenance & Troubleshooting
• Common Issues:
• Leakage: Check shaft seals, port gaskets, and case integrity.
• Low Torque: Inspect for contaminated hydraulic fluid or worn bearings.
• Overheating: Verify flow rates, pressure relief valves, and cooling systems.
• Recommended Checks:
• Bi-annual fluid analysis (ISO 4406 cleanliness standard).
• Annual inspection of rotors/stators for wear.
