AMCA Hydraulic Fluid Power BV Company Center

AMCA (Advanced Machine Control Applications) is specialized in hydraulic fluid power. AMCA fulfils the requirements for quality according to ISO 9001:2000, and AQAP 2110 (certificated by Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance Ltd.).

We are the only company in the Netherlands, specializing in the design and manufacture of HYDRAULIC PROPORTIONAL DIRECTIONAL CONTROL VALVES which enable several functions of a hydraulic system to be operated simultaneously without interaction due to the various loads being applied. These valves can be used with both fixed and variable displacement pumps. The latter can have either constant pressure or load sensing control. Our ELECTRONICS completes the control system.
We also produce in volume pneumatic-hydraulic and electro-hydraulic actuated TIPPING VALVES and zero leakage COUNTERBALANCE VALVES.
The various products, which we produce, are used in a very wide range of applications including: mobile; industrial; marine; off-shore and military applications.

AMCA is continuously searching for new products. For flushing hydraulic systems, draw off and (re) fill hydraulic fluid, we deliver special designed FILTERCARTS. For on-line and off-line filtration, we deliver CONSTANT FLOW FILTERS keeping the system clean at all time.

Due to the representation of outstanding companies with high quality products and a close cooperation with similar companies active in the hydraulic fluid power in The Netherlands, AMCA is able to deliver complete hydraulic systems and to take over the system-responsibility if desired. Thus lowering the life-cycle-costs.
