A milling machine may have a frame, ground engaging tracks that support the frame, and an actuator that adjusts a height of the frame relative to the track. The milling machine may have a control valve that selectively controls a flow of fluid into or out of the actuator based on the current supplied to the control valve. The milling machine may have a controller that determines the amount of current required to operate the actuator at a nominal actuator velocity and supplies that current to the control valve. The controller determines a measured actuator velocity based on a time required to extend or retract the actuator by a predetermined length, and adjusts the amount of current based on the measured and nominal actuator velocities. The controller also supplies the adjusted amount of current to the control valve to adjust the height of the frame relative to the track.

This hydraulic drive system includes: a hydraulic pump that supplies a working fluid to a hydraulic actuator; a meter-in control valve that controls a flow rate of the working fluid flowing from the hydraulic pump to the hydraulic actuator; a meter-out control valve that controls a flow rate of the working fluid being drained from the hydraulic actuator into a tank; and a regeneration valve that supplies, to the hydraulic actuator, the working fluid drained from the hydraulic actuator. The meter-out control valve is connected to the hydraulic actuator in parallel with the regeneration valve.

The controller determines a control parameter for the second actuator based on the velocity error and operates the second actuator using the determined control parameter.

A combined valve for insertion into an elongated bore of a power unit body of a hydraulic power unit may have an elongated carrier for receiving a relief and a check valve. The valve may also have a register arranged at a first axial position of a longitudinal axis of the carrier for calibration of the relief valve. The valve may also have a check valve coupled to the carrier at a second axial position along the longitudinal axis of the carrier. The valve may also have a relief valve coupled to the carrier at a third axial position along the longitudinal axis of the carrier.

A hoist valve assembly for a work machine cylinder includes a main control valve, a counterbalance valve and a counterbalance shutoff valve. A main control valve raise position connects a head end of the cylinder with a pressurized fluid source and a rod end of the cylinder to a low pressure reservoir to extend the cylinder. The counterbalance valve is between the rod end and the main control valve, is biased to a closed position and has an open position connecting the rod end to the low pressure reservoir. Rod end and head end pressure signals apply force to the counterbalance valve toward the open position. The counterbalance shutoff valve is positioned between the head end and the counterbalance valve, and has a normal position to apply the head end pressure signal to the counterbalance valve and a shutoff position that blocks the head end pressure signal from the counterbalance valve.
