What is Vickers and what do they make?

Vickers Hydraulics is a brand name that was once used by the Eaton Corporation, a global technology leader in power management solutions. Vickers Hydraulics was a leading manufacturer of hydraulic systems and components, including pumps, motors, valves, and cylinders, for a wide range of industrial and mobile applications.

Vickers Hydraulics was known for its advanced technology and innovative designs, which included features such as pressure-compensated flow control, electrohydraulic control, and cartridge valve technology. These designs provided precise control over hydraulic systems, improved efficiency, and reduced noise and vibration.

Some of the key products offered by Vickers Hydraulics included:

  1. Piston Pumps - These pumps were designed to provide high pressure and high flow rates for demanding applications such as machine tools, presses, and plastic injection molding machines.

  2. Vane Pumps - These pumps were used in applications such as mobile equipment, machine tools, and industrial machinery, providing reliable and efficient hydraulic power.

  3. Control Valves - Vickers Hydraulics offered a wide range of control valves for different applications, including directional, proportional, and pressure control valves.

  4. Cylinders - Vickers Hydraulics offered a range of cylinders for industrial and mobile applications, including tie rod, mill type, and welded construction cylinders.

Eaton Corporation has since integrated the Vickers brand into its broader portfolio of hydraulic products and services, but the legacy of Vickers Hydraulics continues to live on in the high-performance hydraulic systems and components that it produced.
