Note
Recommended selection:
Servo solenoid valves are generally recommended for applications where there
is a clear separation between machining operation and rapid traverse.
It is a good idea to use valves with asymmetrical restriction cross-sections for
differential cylinders or for cylinders that are not arranged horizontally and move
large loads. This improves the hydraulic clamping of the cylinder and adjusts
the controlled system gain of the hydraulic servo-drive for both directions of
travel.
