Acceleration - Deceleration Control Valve and Circuit for Hydraulic Lift

Introduction

The Hydraulic circuit with Acceleration Deceleration Control Valve (ADCV) is a simple and cost effective alternative for controlling the initial acceleration and final deceleration of a hydraulic actuator. It can be effectively used to get jerk free operation of hydraulic actuators in material handling equipments.

It can be used as a substitute for conventionally used electro-hydraulic valves for making a hydraulic levitator (Lift) for making its operation jerk free.

Advantages

• The system is low cost.
• The system is simple.
• The valve is easy to manufacture.
• No imported parts required.
• No pump required while lowering down of actuator.
• System is robust.
