Systems matrix

One division for the complete hydraulic chain.

A failed actuator may be the symptom, not the cause. AMS Hydraulics evaluates power generation, conditioning, control, actuation, mechanical load, and operating logic as one system.

Motion and control

Systems that stabilize, steer, and position the vessel under real operating load.

Fin and zero-speed stabilizer hydraulic interfaces
Bow and stern thrusters
Hydraulic steering and rudder actuation
Autopilot pumps and steering interfaces
Control heads, sensors, alarms, and interlocks

Deck, lifting, and access

Powered equipment where hydraulic integrity, limits, and safe operation must work together.

Davits and tender cranes
Passerelles and gangways
Swim platforms and boarding systems
Garage doors, hatches, and stern doors
Windlasses, capstans, and powered deck equipment

Power and actuation

The components that create, condition, direct, cool, and convert hydraulic power.

PTO-driven pumps and electric power units
Full pump rebuilds, motors, and reservoirs
Full cylinder rebuilds, rams, and actuators
Counterbalance valves, control spools, manifolds, and accumulators
Hydraulic heat exchangers and coolers
Hoses, fittings, filtration, and fluid condition

Technical work

A defined process from fault capture through rebuild, system design, commissioning, and maintenance planning.

Pressure, flow, temperature, load, and leak testing
Complete pump and cylinder reseals
Full pump and cylinder rebuilds
Hydraulic hose replacement and routing
System design, refit, and component selection
Control calibration and commissioning
Written findings and service-history documentation

How the division works

Measure first. Repair the cause. Verify the result.

The process follows the complete vessel system—not a single component in isolation. That reduces unnecessary parts replacement and creates a cleaner service record for the next decision.

01

Define the operating fault

We document the symptom, load, temperature, direction of travel, control state, service history, and any recent work before opening the system.

02

Test pressure, flow, and control

The diagnosis follows the complete chain—from power unit and filtration through valves, controls, hoses, actuators, and mechanical load.

03

Repair or rebuild the failed cause

Work may include full cylinder or pump rebuilds, complete reseals, hose replacement, counterbalance valves, control spools, PTO-driven pumps, hydraulic heat exchangers, electrical interlocks, calibration, or complete system refit.

04

Commission and document

The repaired system is checked under realistic operating conditions, with findings and follow-up maintenance recorded for the vessel.

Division FAQ

Questions technical customers ask before the first visit.

Which onboard hydraulic systems and components does AMS Hydraulics service?+

The division covers stabilizers, hydraulic and electric thrusters, steering, PTO-driven and electric power units, davits, cranes, passerelles, swim platforms, full cylinder and pump rebuilds, complete reseals, counterbalance valves, control spools, manifolds, hoses, hydraulic heat exchangers, motors, filtration, cooling, and control interfaces.

Is Accumar authorized for Wesmar, Naiad Dynamics, and ABT-TRAC systems?+

Yes. Accumar Marine Services is an authorized dealer and authorized service provider for Wesmar, Naiad Dynamics, and ABT-TRAC in Southwest Florida. We also service other established marine hydraulic brands, including Besenzoni systems, without implying authorization where it has not been specifically stated.

Can a hydraulic leak be diagnosed at the dock?+

Many leaks, pressure losses, steering faults, control issues, and power-unit problems can be evaluated dockside. Fin, thruster, running-gear, load-test, or underwater work may require a haul-out or yard coordination.

What information helps you diagnose a stabilizer or thruster problem?+

Provide vessel make and model, system brand and model, controller messages, when the fault occurs, recent repairs, fluid condition, photos, and whether the vessel is afloat or hauled. This shortens the first diagnostic visit.

Do you offer preventive hydraulic maintenance?+

Yes. A planned scope can include fluid and filter condition, leak inspection, hoses and fittings, reservoirs, coolers, cylinders, mechanical linkages, control operation, alarms, and operating tests based on the installed equipment.

Does AMS perform full marine hydraulic pump and cylinder rebuilds and complete reseals?+

Yes. The scope can include complete disassembly, cleaning, inspection, measurement, seal replacement, controlled reassembly, and testing of cylinders, steering rams, actuators, pumps, motors, valves, and power-unit components. We maintain marine hydraulic service seals and source model-specific seal kits when required.

Does AMS service counterbalance valves, control spools, hydraulic heat exchangers, and PTO-driven pumps?+

Yes. We troubleshoot and service counterbalance valves, control spools and valve sections, hydraulic oil coolers and heat exchangers, and PTO-driven pumps as part of the complete hydraulic circuit. Testing may include pressure, flow, temperature, load, control, contamination, and connected-actuator checks.

Can AMS replace hydraulic hoses or design a complete marine hydraulic system?+

Yes. We can identify hose requirements, replace failed or aging hose assemblies, correct routing and protection issues, and plan complete hydraulic systems or refits around operating load, pressure, flow, controls, cooling, filtration, access, and commissioning.

Planned maintenance

Protect high-consequence motion systems before they stop the vessel.

Hydraulic steering, stabilizers, thrusters, lifting equipment, and access systems benefit from scheduled inspection, fluid control, filtration, leak detection, and operating tests—not failure-only service.
