Core Advantages

 

1. Integrated Structure Design - An Ideal Choice For Integrated Drive & Electrified Systems

Danfoss KC Series (KC38 & KC45) 2-position variable axial piston hydraulic motor features a premium one-piece leak-proof integrated structure, specially developed for integrated wheel drive and electrified hydraulic systems with open or closed circuits.

Diversified reinforced shaft configuration: This motor provides two mainstream output options, including 15-tooth spline shafts and standard straight key shafts. The high-strength shaft assembly can steadily withstand operational radial loads, and the use of flexible couplings is recommended to prolong the service life of the entire drive system. Seamless combination with planetary gearboxes: Designed as a professional cartridge motor, it can be directly mounted to planetary wheel drive gearboxes without additional connectors, becoming an ideal core component for modern electrified mobile hydraulic modules. Ultra-compact layout: The streamlined one-piece housing minimizes overall dimensions, which is highly suitable for compact wheel drive systems where installation space is strictly limited. User-friendly installation & piping: Fitted with industry-standard SAE B mounting flanges and multiple SAE O-ring boss ports (FF series specifications), together with a scientific multi-bolt fixing structure, it ensures perfect assembly concentricity and stable operation. The centralized port design simplifies on-site piping, and the flexible structural design adapts to various drive schemes of off-highway machinery, bringing greater flexibility to your hydraulic system configuration.

 

2. KC Series - High Performance 2-Position Variable Axial Piston Hydraulic Motor

As a flagship high-performance product of Danfoss, the KC Series axial piston hydraulic motor is specially designed for open and closed hydraulic circuits in mobile construction machinery.

Excellent power density: Despite its compact housing, this motor outputs steady and powerful torque. The KC38 model supports 350 bar continuous working pressure, the KC45 model supports 300 bar continuous working pressure, and the peak pressure of both models reaches 400 bar to cope with heavy-load operations. Reliable swash-plate & 9-piston structure: Adopting a mature two-position swash-plate variable structure and a durable 9-piston rotating group, the motor delivers high mechanical efficiency and runs stably in harsh construction environments. Optimized flow system: The refined internal flow channel keeps high volumetric efficiency during long-time service and cuts down pressure loss effectively. Combined with flow-optimized end caps, it achieves ultra-low flow pulsation for smoother equipment operation. Strong environmental adaptability: This two-position variable motor uses spring bias to stay at maximum displacement with a fixed 3.4:1 displacement ratio, realizing stable and rapid displacement switching. It is free from vulnerable electrical control components and needs no IP protection. Compatible with standard mineral hydraulic oil and anti-wear hydraulic oil, it serves as a reliable drive component for aerial work platforms, road rollers, mini excavators and mobile cranes. It is configured with standard hydraulic two-position control, built-in closed-circuit flush valves, and optional speed sensors, fully meeting the matching requirements of different hydraulic systems.
