At VAPO Hydraulics we are specialised in customised hydraulics. Due to our extensive experience with small and larger custom made cylinders for various industries, more and more clients are asking us about automation and synchronisation of client specific systems. Our knowledge in this area enables us to accurately position and control cylinders.
Relatively simple hydraulic systems, like systems that control one or two cylinders, can be executed with standard controllers (encoders) and a PLC. The communication with the system is designed with industrial fieldbuses and/or digital I/O lines.
For more complex systems with a more accurate position control and higher speeds during synchronised movement we make us of, amongst others, the National Instruments CompactRIO platform.
