Integrated fluid automation solutions

Success story with servo-hydraulic and electronic control in the steel industry

Market

Steel industry, special products, large presses.

Need

The large volume of fluid required in a 7000 Ton press makes it necessary to use water instead of oil. The valves controlling the water flow have oil-driven cartridges. Quick and precise control of these cartridges is necessary.

Solution

Each cartridge incorporates a position sensor. The control is carried out using highly dynamic TN25 and TN16 proportional valves and specific PID electronic controllers with very short refresh times.

Benefits

Precise, fast, and safe control of the press movements, which until then operated based on a cam system that was very costly to maintain. Option of monitoring not only the press but also each of the valves that move it.

We are always interested in new projects.
