Flow rate characteristic, linear/with transition point
Valves with either a linear characteristic or with transition point characteristic can be
selected. Valves with a characteristic with a transition point are suitable for obtaining a
higher resolution in the low signal range (machining) and sufficient flow rate in the high
signal range (rapid traverse).
The definition of the transition point position as 40 % or 60 % means that only 10% of the
nominal opening cross-section (nominal flow rate) is released for 40 % or 60 % of the
nominal control signal (i.e. at U=4 V or 6 V).
The valve characteristic with transition point must be linearized in the HLA module to adapt it
to the closed-loop control of the entire drive (cylinder).

compensation in the HLA module
Note
Recommended selection
Servo solenoid valves are generally recommended for applicatio
ns where there is a clear
separation between machining operation and rapid traverse.
