Hydraulic Pumps with High-End Thrust Capabilities

Pressure? Flow Rate? Why the pump should get thrust? After all pump is only coupled to motor isn't it?

Thanks for your interest. I mispoke earlier, actually what I was trying to find out is the thrust on an hydraulic motor(s).

I would like to run four motors with one pump, two variable speed flow controls (to each pair of motors) with fuses to each of the four 'circuits'.

I am looking for small light (aluminum) motors, 4-12 gpm to run large fan blades (60") which will cause the thrust on the motors. This has been the design limitations (along with space required)

I will size the pump to the motors I find and hope to get speeds up to 2500 rpm.

thanks again

Thom.

Use an 'overhung load adapter' The motor bolts to it and it provides additional bearings to handle the thrust. Bailey has them.

Thanks for the reply,

I've already checked out these items, and they add another 5 inches into an already tight design.

I've been trying to find out if anybody makes a motor with tapered bearings already factored in for higher end-thrust problems.

I will check out Baileys and see if they have any tighter ones than Zero Max has, and again thanks for the tip.

I having nightmares about this one! lol.

Seems like someone could produce a motor with tapered bearings built right in. Oh well, just a dream...

Thanks again and good holidays. Thom.
