High Speed Hydraulic Actuators for Integration into Servo Motion Vibrational Testing Platform

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This proposal is for establishing a high-bandwidth, high-capacity, six-axis servo motion vibration testing platform through the purchase and integration of six high-speed hydraulic actuators with our existing equipment. Such vibration testing platforms are normally very expensive (over a million dollars); however, due to our pre-existing equipment (including hydraulic power pack, real-time multi-axis control system, servo valve drives, and already developed control module for the table), we could acquire this important testing system through this RTI funding program. These actuators, specially designed to operate for long durations of time at very high speeds will be used in multiple research groups within the departments of Mechanical and Mechatronics, and Systems Design Engineering at the University of Waterloo.
