- Title
Modern Hydraulic Power Units: Evolving from Electronic Control into Intelligence.
- Authors
Goenechea, E.
- Abstract
In October 2009 Bucher Hydraulics presented the new electronically controlled lift valve "iValve". The letter "i" stands for "intelligent" because the valve is not only electronically controlled as its predecessor the LRV-1 is. The iValve also offers some important intelligent features like self-adjustment and condition monitoring realised by its self-teaching capacities called "iTeach". These features were developed using R&D strategies, tools and capacities that fit highest standards for mechatronic products. In the following the advantages and characteristics of electronic control will be described as well as the influence of the new features. The power of the developed learning algorithms is shown by experimental results.
