AUTOMATIC OPERATING DEVICE
Excavator operator has a challenging job to drive
a pile vertically by keeping the pile on the linear
movement. This requires the control of three
different movements of boom, stick and bucket
cylinder simultaneously. At the same time the angle
of the pile is very difficult to see from the cabin of
the excavator as a side view of the pile cannot be
directly seen.
Movax automatic operating device is developed to
solve the problem. The main principle is that the
operator controls one movement and computer
controlled system takes care of the two remaining
movements. This results to a linear movement of
the pile.
Working cycle with Auto Steering
Automatic system
calculates
the position of the
pile
(distance and
angle).
Main boom, Stick
boom and Movax
angles are measured
by sensors.
The pile is driven or
extracted straight in
vertical direction or
in any other angle.
Display unit recognises that
the operator is controlling one
movement (Main boom), and
takes care of the two others
(Stick and Movax). This is done by
controlling the proportional valves.
Cylinder movements
are controlled by
main valves.
Valves of the automatic
control the main valves of
the excavator.
Operator controls
one movement
(e.g. Main boom).
