As construction equipment gains more sophisticated cabs, emissions systems, electronics and safety technology, the space available for traditional hydraulic hardware is increasingly contested.

At the same time, manufacturers are keen to keep machine weight down, reduce their consumption of resources and simplify maintenance without compromising productivity.

The hydraulic reservoir is an obvious target, but reducing its volume is no easy task – it’s not just a matter of creating a smaller tank design.…
