Abstract

The chapter delves into the development and testing of a hydrotronic control system for a prototype test bench designed to evaluate vibration isolation systems. It covers the classification and performance of various vibration excitation devices, focusing on electrohydraulic systems due to their superior performance. The study involves the construction and simulation of a virtual prototype of the hydrotronic drive system using standard elements in Simcenter Amesim software. Key aspects include modeling the proportional directional valve dynamics, determining PID controller settings, and addressing issues like valve dead zones. The chapter highlights the challenges faced and innovative solutions implemented, such as using an additional valve to correct dead zone effects and optimizing PID settings for stable operation. The research culminates in the development of in-house software for the control system, with preliminary tests showing promising results. The chapter offers a comprehensive and detailed account of the entire process, making it a valuable resource for professionals in the field.
