Hydraulic Servo System

Technical Description of Hydraulic Servo System

Servo systems are closed-loop control systems. In many industrial applications it is often required to convert small mechanical motions into a different motions with increased force. Hydraulic systems are particularly suitable for applications where large actuation forces are required. The unit allows the operation of a hydraulic servo system to be investigated in detail. A carriage with a mass of 50kg is moved by a hydraulic cylinder. Additional springs and an adjustable hydraulic damper permit static and dynamic loads to be simulated. The displacement of the carriage is established using a potentiometric position sensor and compared against the reference variable. The control deviation is processed in a separate servo amplifier. Depending on the direction of the deviation, a control valve is activated in forward or reverse direction, which in turn produces a corresponding movement of the hydraulic cylinder and the carriage. The trainer is a mobile unit. Measuring devices can be housed in the built-under cabinet unit.
