Abstract
Hydrostatic steering is widely used in agricultural and construction machines. The first and main reason for a hydrostatic steering application is the usage of a small steering input effort; therefore the operator can concentrate on his main task. There are a few main types of hydrostatic steering, but variations on the basic steering types vary from producer to producer. It is necessary to make a relatively simple calculation of the parameters on the basis of the known technical vehicle data, for the choice of the fundamental components of hydrostatic steering: pump, steering unit and cylinder.
