Formula: T(N·m) = V(cm³/rev) × P(MPa) / 2π; P(kW) = T×n / 9549

How It Works

A hydraulic motor converts fluid pressure and flow into rotary motion. Its torque is proportional to the product of displacement and applied pressure. Motor efficiency accounts for internal friction losses.

Use this to verify that a motor meets the torque and speed requirements of your application, such as an excavator swing drive or a winch.
