Hydraulic Implement Control: for precise position & force control in agriculture
In the future of agriculture, there will be no avoiding mechanical weed control and more precise and intensive soil preparation. Extremely precise and highly dynamic control is needed for the contact pressure and/or position, depending on the attachment and the corresponding task. HYDAC offers you a new solution for this: our modular Hydraulic Implement Control system is designed for precisely this purpose and, with its clever connection system and wide range of modules, offers you the flexibility you need to configure the best solution for all the different machine options.
Flexible & modular solutions reduce development times
The large number of different agricultural machine types inevitably leads to countless configuration options and therefore a high number of valve variations. This means that there is a desire for standardised, modular valve systems that can be individually adapted to the various machine requirements.
Precise & highly dynamic systems improve performance
Today, ever higher demands are being placed on the response behaviour and control quality in hydraulic systems. With Hydraulic Implement Control as a constant pressure system, we achieve fast response behaviour, extremely short reaction times and high quality work.
Our modular system at a glanceRely on Hydraulic Implement Control as a ready-to-use, modular solution
Use the different modules in our modular system to configure your custom valve system – tailored to your machine requirements. The individual modules are tried-and-tested, saving you valuable development time and costs. In principle, a complete system consists of an input module or base module, a locking plate and any function modules:
- Steering module
- Accumulator charging module
- 4/3 directional module
- Cylinder module
- Pressure control module
- Proportional module
These function modules can be flange-mounted to the base module. The sequence of modules depends on the control task, as does the use of directional poppet valves, check valves, proportional valves, pressure control valves and pressure compensators on the module. The system can also be supplemented with accumulators and filters with or without an indicator (visual, electronic).
With a clever connection system
- Only three screw lengths are required for the entire system
- No clamping length problems
- Simple connection of aluminium and steel
- Screws are secured against loosening
