Decarbonisation, increasing efficiency requirements and maximum system availability are reshaping the maritime industry. At SMM 2026, Hydac will present components, system solutions and services designed to support shipowners and shipyards throughout the entire lifecycle of a vessel.
Drawing on more than 60 years of experience in hydraulics, drive technology, systems engineering and fluid management, the family-owned company offers a portfolio of certified components and systems for a wide range of marine applications. The range includes type-approved sensors as well as solutions for fuel management, automation and electrification, supporting safe and efficient vessel operation.
Hydraulic systems remain a key element of modern ships, whether for propulsion, steering or deck machinery. Hydac develops components and customised system solutions designed to provide reliable performance, high operational safety and efficient operation under demanding marine conditions.
The company will also showcase its filtration technologies for lubricating oils, fuels and hydraulic systems. According to Hydac, clean operating fluids help reduce wear, extend equipment service life, increase system availability and minimise maintenance requirements.
As alternative fuels such as methanol, ammonia and hydrogen become increasingly important, Hydac is expanding its portfolio with solutions for filtration, cooling, fluid management and condition monitoring. These technologies are intended to support the safe and reliable use of alternative fuels on board.
Another focus is the Hydac Fluid Care Programme. Through fluid analysis and condition-based maintenance recommendations, the service helps operators optimise fluid life, reduce unplanned downtime and improve the availability of critical onboard systems.
At SMM, visitors can learn more about Hydac’s solutions for propulsion, hydraulics, filtration, automation and alternative fuels, as well as discuss application-specific requirements with the company’s experts.
