Customized Electrohydrostatic Actuation Systems

Moog’s Customized EAS combines the best of two worlds, electrohydraulic (EH) and electromechanical (EM) actuation, in a dynamic and attractive solution for the industrial machine manufacturing market. Automation engineers moving toward electromechanical actuation in pursuit of energy efficiency and environmental cleanliness, in combination with the high power density of electrohydraulic actuation, will find the EAS an attractive solution tailored to their specific application and requirements.

Benefits:

• High force capability and power density
• Low noise emission for quiet machine operation
• Environmentally friendly due up to 90 % lower oil requirement compared to standard systems
• Small number of components reduce the risk of breakdown and allow faster maintenance
• Low mass inertia of the EPU provides high system dynamics
• Tailored to specific application and requirement           
• 4-quadrant operation technology reduces energy consumption due to energy recuperation and an effective energy management system (power on demand)
• Decentralized system eliminates need for large hydraulic power unit (HPU) and reduces piping and installation costs
• Energy management system available
