A Hybrid of Pressure and Flow Control in Mobile Hydraulic Systems

• This paper presents a hybrid pump controller approach for mobile hydraulic systems, influenced by both pressure and flow. The controller is tuneable to be able to set the order of importance of the pressure and flow controller, respectively. It is thus possible to realize a load sensing system, a flow control system or a mix of the two. Using a low load pressure feedback gain and a high flow control gain, a system emerges with high energy efficiency, fast system response, high stability margins and no flow matching issues. In this paper, both theoretical studies and practical implementations demonstrate the capability of a hybrid pump control approach.
