Description
Summary:The article presents the results of experiments aimed at finding the displacement of a cylinder being part of a boom system, as recorded after initiating a rapid breaking process. The tests were performed on a special test stand which allows modifications of the control system architecture. The article presents a comparative analysis of three systems different with respect to their architecture and use of control valves. It discusses the test results and the influence of the architecture of a hydrostatic system on the accuracy of the resultant position of the working element. The article also describes the influence of external loads on the working movement accuracy of the tested systems. The results allow the author to relate the structure of a hydraulic system to the parameter of the obtained working movement accuracy with respect to the maximum values of pressures and dynamic forces.
