A gear pump is a type of hydraulic pump used in hydraulic systems that transports hydraulic fluid using a pair of gears rotating within two gears. The gear type pump works in a chamber where the gears come into contact with each other, and by the rotation of these gears, the hydraulic fluid is sucked in and discharged under pressure. This type of pump is widely used, especially in medium and low pressure hydraulic systems.
Gear type pumps are generally used to provide energy transfer and control in hydraulic systems. The contact between two gears and the circulation of hydraulic fluid between these gears ensure continuous operation of the system.
