PTS marking of hydraulic hoses at Hymatik
When a hydraulic hose fails, getting the right replacement quickly is crucial. With the Parker Tracking System (PTS) from Parker Hannifin, we make the entire process simple, accurate and fully documented. In our workshop, we mark every hose with a PTS label and a unique PTS ID number. The ID describes precisely which hose you have, how it is constructed and where it was manufactured. This means you don't need a parts list or the old hose in hand to order a new one – simply give us the PTS number and we will produce an identical hose.
What is PTS – and why does it work so well?
PTS is a global tracking system from Parker Hannifin that ensures traceability and correct product information. The system works seamlessly all over the world, regardless of where and when the hose was manufactured. In Europe, an average of 160,000 hoses a month are produced with PTS labels, which testifies to its widespread use and high operational reliability. For you as a customer, it means fewer incorrect purchases, faster reordering and less wasted time during breakdowns, because identification takes just a few seconds based on the PTS ID number.
How to order a new hydraulic hose with PTS
If you have a breakdown, or you can see that a hose will soon need replacing, call us on 63 12 83 00 or send an e-mail with the PTS ID number. We then produce the new hose to the same specification, and in most cases we can have it ready within 20 minutes. You decide whether to collect it from us or have it delivered. For companies on Funen, we offer delivery within 60–120 minutes, so you can get your machines back up and running quickly without unnecessary costs.
Quality, traceability and less downtime
PTS takes the guesswork out of ordering hoses. You avoid fitting the wrong hose, because the PTS number ensures that we produce the exact combination of hose, fittings, dimension and pressure rating. That reduces the risk of incorrect purchases, extends the service life of your hydraulic system and minimises downtime. Traceability also makes planned maintenance easier, because you can quickly check the specifications, age and history of your hoses.
