Electro-Hydraulic - EH Electro-Mechanical - EMA Electro-Hydrostatic - EHA

+ High robustness and reliability+ Ideal for high & static forces+ Fail-safe options + Easy redundancy (2+ actuators)+ No backlash+ Easy maintenance+ High frequency operation+ Compact size + Light weight

- Low energy efficiency- Requires HPU* & piping- Environment contamination

+ High energy efficiency+ Powered by wire (no HPU)+ Easy installation and

commissioning+ Environmental cleanliness + Well suited for rotary actuation+ High stiffness

- Heavy weight- No fail safe (gearbox can block)- No redundancy (single actuator)- High power consumption to holdstatic load

- Backlash- High maintenance effort ($)- Electrical noise

+ Good energy efficiency+ Powered by wire (no HPU)+ Easy installation and

commissioning+ High robustness and reliability+ Fail-safe options + Easy redundancy (2+ actuators)+ No backlash+ Good for high & static forces+ Unlimited hydraulic gearbox ratio

- Weight- Higher cost- Complexity - Electrical noise- Limited stiffness- Power consumption to holdstatic load

*HPU: hydraulic power unit = motor + pump + filtering + cooling

EHA - AN OLD CONCEPT

Hydrostatic transmissions have been used in a wide range of mobile applications

Same principles can be applied to get a “Basic EHA”+ No need for a “separated” HPU+ Self contained hydraulic system- Low frequency response- Requires auxiliary devices (cooling, filtration, anti-cavitation)

EHA - DEVELOPMENTS

1) Replacing the variable pump by a fixed pump + servo motor• Gear Pump:lower cost, loss of

performance• Piston Pumps: higher cost, better

efficiency

2) Adding filtering, small accumulator(to keep system pressurized) and anti-cavitation check valves.

3) Dealing with unbalanced cylindersRequires:

• large accumulator : to hold the differential oil volume• pilot operated anti-cavitation check valves: to assure the pressurization of

the pump port to avoid cavitation

APLICATION - BLADE PITCH CONTROLWind TurbinePITCH CONTROL SYSTEM :adjusts the pitch turbine blade angle.

• 3 blades follows the same command (syncronized)• The turbine main controller sets blade pitch angle• The pitch control system is assembled inside the blades and rotates withthe turbine.
