Swash Plate

Swash Plate Motor – Compact in Size, Fast Speed of Response.

Swash-Plate motors are similar to the bent-axis motors except that the swash plate inclination angle is varied instead of the cylinder block inclination angle. In order to vary the displacement of a swash-plate machine, a mechanism is used to vary the inclination angle of the swash plate. The greater the slant the further the pistons move and the more fluid they transfer.

In comparison to the bent-axis motor style, swash-plate motors are more compact, have a faster speed of response, but generate higher levels of noise.

These motors can be unidirectional or bidirectional.  Applications include excavators, cranes (crawler / rough terrain), crawler drills and pile drivers.
