Modern Hydraulic Power for Metal Forming Equipment

Green Hydraulic Power (GHP) is standard on all new MJC machines — and available as a retrofit for existing hydraulic equipment.

Why All New MJC Machines Use Green Hydraulic Power

Green Hydraulic Power uses VFD controlled motors that adjust speed in real time, supplying only the pressure and flow required by the machine.

Unlike conventional systems, GHP does not run at full speed unless demand exists.

The result:

  • Up to 70% energy savings

  • Significant heat reduction (often reducing or eliminating extra cooling)

  • Up to 20 dB noise reduction

  • Lower oil volume and longer service intervals

  • Industry 4.0 ready monitoring and connectivity

Hydraulic Power Has Changed — Many Machines Haven’t

Across the metal forming industry, countless machines still rely on fixed speed hydraulic power units that:

  • Run continuously at full output

  • Waste energy during idle and partial load operation

  • Generate excess heat and noise

  • Require added cooling and frequent maintenance

These systems were designed long before variable frequency drive (VFD) technology became the standard for efficient industrial power.

Is GHP a Good Fit for Your Existing Equipment?

GHP retrofits are ideal for:

  • Heavy‑duty hydraulic machines

  • Older or legacy machines with no VFD control

  • Equipment that runs hot, loud, or inefficient

  • Machines with idle time, pressure‑hold, or variable demand cycles

If your operation includes older hydraulic equipment, GHP can modernize performance without replacing the machine.

Upgrade Without a Large Capital Expense

GHP systems are available with flexible leasing options, allowing facilities to:

  • Minimize upfront investment

  • Offset payments through energy savings

  • Improve reliability and efficiency immediately

  • Achieve ROI in 12–18 months in many applications

Modernize Your Hydraulic Power — Not Your Entire Machine

Whether your equipment is new or decades old, hydraulic power doesn’t have to be inefficient.
