Flow Control Valves

Vickers Flow Control Valves are precision-engineered hydraulic components designed to regulate the volumetric flow rate of fluid within a hydraulic circuit. They typically operate using an adjustable throttling mechanism, like a needle or spool, which varies the size of the internal flow orifice to control the volume of fluid passing through. By manipulating this orifice size, these valves accurately manage the speed of hydraulic actuators (like cylinders and motors), ensuring precise and consistent machine operation. Their primary functions include controlling the inlet or exhaust speed of an actuator, setting a constant flow rate regardless of load, and balancing the flow between multiple parts of a system. Ultimately, Vickers flow control valves are critical for achieving the desired motion control, timing, and synchronization in high-performance hydraulic applications.
