Electronics provide precise control of hydraulic actuators, such as this motor from Sauer Danfoss' H1 series. Effectively controlling large forces in hydraulic systems to make access equipment ...

Controlling hydraulic motion with precision involves understanding the fundamental difference between servo motors and hydraulic actuators. Electric motors generally respond linearly to control inputs ...

In the nearly 40 years since electronic control systems first became common features of industrial machines, controls theory has necessarily evolved to keep pace with machine design. Early on, systems ...
