Hydreco Hydraulics, a leading company with a history of over a hundred years in designing, manufacturing, and distributing hydraulic and transport components, continues its growth journey after recently joining the Daikin Industries group, a colossal entity. The most significant new development showcased at Agritechnica in Hanover is in the joystick sector, which Hydreco had already introduced in various versions, including analog, On-Off, Pwm, and Can-bus, with programmable functions.

The novelty in preview is the proportional electric mini-joystick MHDC, known for its extreme compactness, reliability, ergonomic handle, reduced installation dimensions, and wide flexibility of output signals.

In Lower Saxony, visitors will have the opportunity to discover the latest innovations in the field of hydraulics and motion control from the company. This includes the MS series of open-center, six-way directional control valves with central bypass, designed in a wide range of configurations and options. Also featured is the multifunction ergonomic handle control MHC (Multifunction Handle Control) with a robust design suitable for demanding environments and applications where durability and reliable components are required.

Among other motion control solutions are their range of hydraulic and electric/electronic remote controls, CANbus-based machine control systems, bankable valves, and hydraulic cylinders. Additionally, you'll get to appreciate the most recent developments in external gear pumps and motors, produced at their manufacturing site in Parma, along with their cartridge valve series.

Katie McColl, the CEO of Hydreco Hydraulics and Continental Hydraulics, emphasizes that as part of Daikin Industries, Hydreco is strengthening synergistic collaboration with Till Hydraulik, a company based in Helmstedt, Lower Saxony, specializing in hydraulic cylinder production for mobile applications. This represents an extraordinary opportunity to combine the skills and strengths of the Duplomatic, Continental, Hydreco, and Till group of companies.
