The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of a domestic developed hydraulic axial piston motor. An experimental apparatus was constructed and the output torque, the input oil pressure, the input flow rate, the speed of motor and oil temperature were measured. They were measured under both no load and load conditions. The results are as follows; 1. Motion of motor became steady state conditions after 5 seconds. 2. Output torque of motor was proportional to input oil pressure under both load and unload. 3. Speed of motor decreased with increasing load. 4. Oil temperature was almost constant. The results of this study will offer the basic data in designing and operating hydraulic axial piston motors.
