Systems and methods provide automatic assignment of control of a plurality of hydraulic circuits of an associated work vehicle to a plurality of operation systems of an implement. A hydraulic circuit assignment control unit includes a processor, a memory device, logic stored in the memory device, and a communication circuit operatively coupled with the processor. The processor executes the logic to associate an activation of a first hydraulic circuit of the plurality of hydraulic circuits of the associated work vehicle with a physical exercise of an operation system of the plurality of operation systems of the associated implement, and generates pairing assignment data representative of the association of the activated first hydraulic circuit with the physical exercise of the operation system of the implement. The logic generates directionality confirmation and calibration data that is communicated to the plurality of operation systems with the pairing assignment data.

A hydraulic arrangement. The hydraulic arrangement has multiple hydraulic units, the control units of which are connected, in particular in series, via a data connection. The control units are preferably designed to control selectively only hydraulic cylinders directly associated with said units, or also indirectly control, via the data connection and the control unit of an additional hydraulic unit, the hydraulic cylinders associated with said additional hydraulic unit. A climbing formwork having at least one climbing unit, in particular multiple climbing units. The hydraulic units can be linked via the data connection such that synchronous lifting and/or lowering of all climbing units can be or is achieved. The hydraulic units are preferably connected in a master-slave arrangement or are preferably controlled in a master-slave mode. Also preferably, the hydraulic units are designed to switch from the master-slave mode to the stand-alone mode.

The disclosure discloses an electro-hydraulic servo actuator capable of implementing long-stroke and high-frequency loading and a control method. The actuator includes: a long hydraulic cylinder with a piston, a short hydraulic cylinder with a piston, a fixed-end rod, low frequency and high frequency electro-hydraulic servo valves, a left rod chamber, a right rod chamber, a force applying end head, and a force applying end rod. With this structure, the displacement of the piston of the short hydraulic cylinder is a combination of small-displacement and high-frequency movement and large-displacement and low-frequency movement, so as to realize the generation of large-displacement and high-frequency movement. Therefore, a target large-displacement and high-frequency excitation is applied to the specimen under load test. The actuator can output high-frequency and large-displacement target excitation of 0.1 Hz to 200 Hz and 0 mm to 1500 mm, and has a simple mechanical structure, advanced control process, and good practicability.

A hydraulic system for a cyclically operating shaping machine includes at least one hydraulic drive unit for cyclically driving a component of the shaping machine at a start time; at least one pump; and at least one hydraulic accumulator which can be discharged for driving the at least one hydraulic drive unit and which can be charged up by operation of the at least one pump. An open-loop or closed-loop control unit is also provided for control of the at least one pump. The open-loop or closed-loop control unit is adapted to operate the at least one pump continuously until the start time of the at least one hydraulic drive unit to charge up the at least one hydraulic accumulator until the start time of the hydraulic drive unit.

A milling machine includes a cutting rotor accommodated in a rotor enclosure having side plates that are vertically adjustable with respect to a machine frame. To adjust the vertical elevation of the side plates, a plurality of sensors is mounted on the machine frame and associated with an electronic controller that measures and processes the vertical distance between the side plates and work surface. The electronic controller operates a hydraulic system to adjust the vertical distance between the side plates and the work surface. To accommodate changes in work surface topography, the hydraulic system includes a float circuit with an accumulator.

A system for automatic calibration of an actuator, where the system has an actuator and a computer, and the computer further includes a PID controller. A sensor connected to the actuator transmits values representing the motion of the actuator to the input of the PID controller. The computer is programmed to compare the values representing the motion of the actuator to the output of the PID controller, thus outputting an error signal representing the difference between the output of the PID controller and the values representing the motion of the actuator. The computer stores this difference as a calibrated set point for the actuator when the difference is less than a predetermined amount. This calibrated set point is used to initialize the operation of a machine propelled by the actuator.

A method is provided for controlling engine speed of a drive engine of a utility vehicle having a drivable loading apparatus. The method includes detecting or predicting a driving movement of the loading apparatus, and requesting an increase of engine speed if the movement of the loading apparatus is predicted or detected.
