Hercules Hydraulics has been appointed the sole UK distributor for hydraulic proportional control valves manufacturer AMCA.
Hercules Hydraulics became AMCA’S build partner for England and Wales in 2015. Under the new agreement parts will be shipped from Holland direct to Hercules Hydraulics, who will continue to build, test and deliver AMCA valves to customers in England and Wales. Hercules Hydraulics will also supply components to ITC, the established Scottish AMCA build partner.
Ryan Langley, managing director at Hercules Hydraulics, said: “We have enjoyed working as a build partner with AMCA for the past couple of years and are delighted to have been chosen as a full UK distributor. We are looking forward to working closely with ITC in Scotland to ensure the growth of the AMCA business throughout the UK.”
Bespoke configurations
Each AMCA valve is built, set up and tested to specific customer requirements, with bespoke valve configurations being available from stock. Valve can be specified for flow rates of up to 660lpm, rated to 420bar with electrical, manual or hydraulic pilot control and can usually be built, tested and delivered in 48 hours.
One of the main reason’s AMCA’s decision to appoint Hercules Hydraulics was the expertise the company has in the marine hydraulics sector, particularly in the offshore workboat market, a sector where AMCA excels in other parts of the world.
Hercules Hydraulics also does business in other market sectors such as industry, agriculture, construction and mobile plant, which are significant users of hydraulic equipment and a wide range of hydraulic valves.
