Nanostructured surface functionalization to improve efficiency in axial piston hydraulic pumps

Nanotechnologies improve efficiency

The project idea is based on the consideration that a significant part of energy losses in volumetric machines is due to friction between moving parts. The need to provide, especially at low speed, hydraulic lift for a correct lubrication is a...
