Talk:Axial piston pump

Closely resembles swashplate engine

I was copyediting the swashplate engine article, and thought if that could be operated in reverse as a pump; so I found this article. Are axial piston pumps and swashplate engines exactly the same thing? If so, should these articles be merged or should information about use as a motor on this article moved to swashplate engine? For now, i've added a "see also" link for both articles in order to help both readers and editors find these two related articles. SGJ 12:26, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Start at the beginning

In Wikipedia the Hydraulics is not described very good. One should start at the beginning with "hydraulics". Subsequnetly pumps motors cylinders etc

Subsequently axial pistonpumps, gearpumps etc

Subsequently adjustable pumps like adjustable axial pistonpumps etc etc Jeff 12:24, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Request for diagram

I drew and added a link to a very simple diagram of an axial piston pump. Doe this need anything more, or does the text adequately explain it? Egmason (talk) 12:08, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

merge

As far as I can tell from the text in Wikipedia and the references provided, a direct displacement control pump is a kind of axial piston pump. Since the difference (if any) can apparently be described by a couple of sentences in the merged article, I suggest merging direct displacement control pump into axial piston pump. --DavidCary (talk) 00:15, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

Suggestions

1. Such pumps are often called "Waterbury type" when equipped with a variable swashplate. 2. The animation shows six pistons. Such a pump always has an odd number of pistons. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.88.156.140 (talk) 15:22, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
