VARAN feedback system for hydraulically controlled axes

Integrated in the hydraulic cylinder

Balluff has launched the first integrated displacement system with VARAN realtime Industrial Ethernet onto the market - the Micropulse BTL6-V11V rod. Micropulse rod displacement systems integrated in the pressure section of hydraulic cylinders measure the current piston position directly.

Optimal control quality of the hydraulic axis is achieved through dy-namic, reproducible high-precision measurements. The extremely quick and accurate realtime transfer of data via the VARAN Industrial Ethernet combined with the precision dynamic measurement of the piston position by the Micropulse BTLs make the system ideally suit-ed for use in complex applications involving controlled axes.
