Without many people realizing that there are actually so many ways hydraulic pumps work that have been applied in everyday life. People who do not learn about the world of mechanics, may not know that their motorcycle shock breaker uses the working force of a hydraulic pump. 

Heavy equipment such as excavators also have a hydraulic pump. Then what is the function of the hydraulic pump on the machine that uses it? This hydraulic pump makes it easier for the machines to work, which means it makes human work easier.

Hydraulic Work Area            

So many uses for this hydraulic pump have made many companies engaged in the sale and maintenance of hydraulic pumps. 

The machines in oil palm plantations, heavy equipment that is widely available in coal, gold, oil mining areas, even in the construction of tall buildings, many use the mechanism found in the hydraulic pump.

For example, consider an excavator heavy equipment. The power of the swing uses hydraulics. 

The arms of the Excavator also use hydraulics. The power steering in a car that can be raised and lowered also has hydraulic power. 

This extraordinary utility makes children who are educated in vocational schools, especially for Mechanical Engineering, will learn about hydraulics as a whole.

This knowledge of hydraulics will make it easier for them to treat the machines they will maintain or even those they will build. 

Even children who want to work or create equipment in the automotive world should know about hydraulics. The automotive world uses quite a lot of hydraulic systems. Without this knowledge, it will be very difficult to get a job in this field.

How the Hydraulic Pump Works

The hydraulic work of this pump is based on Pascal's law. The law states that the pressure in an enclosed space will be transmitted equally in all directions. From this law, then Pascal's law principles apply. 

Pascal said that if a fluid equipped with a suction is moving, then the pressure at a given point is determined not only by the weight of the fluid on the water but also by the force exerted by the suction.

To understand the laws and principles intended by Pascal, children who are studying these laws will usually make special props using very simple materials. The ingredients used can be ice cream sticks. 

If you only memorize how to work with the law, you are usually less qualified. By seeing for yourself the equipment that uses Pascal's law, the knowledge and experience blend well. Understanding will also be better.

The same pressure that looks like going up and down is what makes the hydraulic pump work so that it can be used in many small and large equipment. 

The way this hydraulic pump works is that there is a manual one without a pump because there is already a lubricant circulation system like the motor shock absorber. 

While the automatic is the pump. The hydraulic media itself is in the form of gas and some is in the form of oil.

When humans had trouble getting water, they built hydraulic pumps. It turns out that Pascal's law is so influencing people to innovate and at the same time modify existing equipment. Basically humans are never satisfied. Every problem even makes humans more creative.

The hydraulic pump has become one of the most widely used systems with all its modifications. This system is very easy, efficient, effective, lightweight, easy to install, easy to learn, and easy to maintain and doesn't take much time and effort. 

If you use oil media, then what you pay attention to is the quality of the oil. Do not let any dirt get into the hydraulic pump.

This dirt will hinder the pump work. If there is too much dirt in the hydraulic pump, what happens is that the pump is not running or functioning optimally. 

For example, the swing power of the crane will be reduced. If the swing is not corrected, an accident may occur. Especially if the pressure is the problem.

Unbalanced pressure will make the machine run limp and even unable to support the support that has been making it work better. 

For this reason, in order to prevent damage and work accidents, the system in the hydraulic pump installed on each machine must be checked periodically.

The larger the equipment with which the hydraulic pump is attached, the greater the power supplied. 

Thus, maintenance must be carried out after the machine has done its job. Just a different sound must be suspected so that the cause can be immediately identified. 

The tightening of the bolts and nuts that keep the equipment in the pump must also be considered. Just one loose bolt or nut, this can make the fast pressure wobble and not function optimally.

Don't be surprised if the people in the Machine Maintenance Division get quite high wages. This is because they are the 'doctors' of the machine. If these machine 'doctors' don't do their job well, work accidents can happen.

Equipment operators who use hydraulic pumps also have to work very well with the machine 'doctors' so that even the slightest damage is repaired immediately. Prevention is ongoing. 

But humans still have limitations even though machine maintenance has been carried out with an integrated computerized system.

More About Hydraulic

Pumps This hydraulic pump is part of the hydraulic system components. The other components are hydraulic machines and valves. 

The definition of a hydraulic system itself is a transfer and control of forces and movements using liquid fluids. This hydraulic pump converts mechanical energy into hydraulic energy.

Learning how this hydraulic energy works and what its benefits are will increase the enthusiasm of students in making equipment that may be created from this system. 

Teachers who are able to challenge children to be able to work well, will be surprised when children with brains that are still so developed are able to create good works.

An example of how a hydraulic pump has helped the lives of many people can be given. For example, people who live in one area in Banten, Indonesia. 

They rely heavily on hydraulic pumps which are used to deliver water from a water source to houses and places of worship.

The existence of the water that is far away has made the government intervene and make hydraulic pumps that do not really require a lot of maintenance. The cost of making it is not expensive. 

This is one of the functions of having appropriate knowledge. If generations are properly educated while honing their conscience, they will always think what can be done for others.

This unselfish nature will increase the enthusiasm for work. If you don't think about other people, sometimes the enthusiasm to work is a little less. 

For this reason, the development of a discussion about how the hydraulic pump works needs to be encouraged.
