HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION
LES TRANSMISSIONS HYDROSTATIQUES
The article describes this type of transmission and examines its advantages: rigidity of this transmission; scope for mounting the pump and engines, which may be connected by means of flexible piping; small dimensions of the main elements. In addition, the possibility of readily obtaining a high and variable transmission ratio whilst keeping a high overall output ensures different applications ranging from the activation of circuit engineering powered units to the precision control of machine tools.
