Hydraulic System Handles Higher Flow Rates

June 1, 2022
Komatsu's Joy Compak hydraulic system can be upgraded or retrofit to any PRS system.

Engineered to be durable and reliable in rugged environments, the Joy Compak system features corrosion-resistant materials on valve block assemblies, components and the main body. With a reduced number of components to lessen wear-and-tear, the spool valve in the system is engineered to handle higher flow rates, helping to reduce the risk of part failure and promote extended life. Providing flexibility to suit operational needs, the Joy Compak Next Gen hydraulic system can be conveniently upgraded or retrofit to any PRS system regardless of manufacturer.

The high-performance valve technology of the Compak hydraulic control system helps improve cycle times by up to 12%, compared to the previous model. Designed with operators in mind, this hydraulic system’s overall size and weight is reduced, making it easier to position while improving accessibility. Hosing position has also been conveniently located for better access.
