LinDrive: Precision x Dynamics x Reliability = Benefitn
LinDrive™ is not just about precision, it's not just about dynamics and it's not just about a reliable traction drive. LinDrive™ is the ideal combination of all three elements. It is this ideal combination of performance factors that produces the unbeatable LinDrive™ driving experience — an experience that is amplified once combined with the capabilities of the other work functions; an experience that enhances economic efficiency and boosts the benefit to you.
Linde Hydraulics will be unveiling its unique LinDrive driving philosophy at BAUMA 2007.
Operators of mobile machines boast a range of skills. In many situations, operators need to multitask by successfully operating the various work functions and the propel drive.
Driving is always an integral part of mobile machines’ work functions, and as these functions themselves become ever more complex we need to actively lighten the load on the operator by making operation simple and intuitive. By enhancing the driving comfort for the operator, we can ensure that he does not become fatigued by his work — which in turn boosts his performance. The unique LinDrive™ driving philosophy from Linde Hydraulics focuses on the complete working system — including both man and machine. It does not focus purely on achieving optimum utilisation of the available engine power and absolute reliability of the propel drive; it also ensures simple and intuitive operation. If an operator feels in complete control of the machinery, his work will be more effective and the machine will be able to operate with maximum economic efficiency.
What are the special features of machinery fitted with LinDrive™?
– Precise manoeuvring thanks to direct machine control
– Dynamic drive behaviour through optimum utilisation of the installed power
– Total reliability thanks to good availability of drive components and high safety standards
LinDrive = Precision. Only the accurate execution of driving commands ensures that both operator and machinery work with precision. Adjustments and repositioning become a thing of the past with LinDrive™, with each and every driving command being executed directly — in line with the operator's instructions and factoring in the needs of the specific situation.
The technology that enables this precise machine control is the control concept of the Series 02 variable pumps. The concept uses a position feedback control, which compensates for undesirable load impacts. The benefits of the variable pump concept are even greater when combined with the HMV-02 hydraulic motors. Regular torque enables smooth start-up, precision control and manoeuvrability even at low speeds, as well as the ability to hold constant speeds with accuracy.
LinDrive = Dynamics. With mobile machines, dynamic drive behaviour depends on the rapid execution of driving commands. Regardless of whether operators are accelerating, braking or reversing, with LinDrive™ each and every machine can impress with drive characteristics tailored to the specific situation. The optimised interaction between the Series 02 pumps and motors enables the best possible utilisation of the installed power, which in turn results in dynamic handling and operation. The substantial actuating forces that act in the Series 02 control mechanism irrespective of load ensure that the pumps are swashed promptly and that driving commands are executed immediately, resulting in maximum traction at the wheel.
The machinery load statuses are processed electronically or hydro-mechanically within the signal circuit, producing a machinery response that is adapted to requirements.
Thus the pump control and the rapid motor response define the dynamics of the machinery. The propel drive dynamics can be specified on an individual basis to suit the specific application.
LinDrive = Reliability. The reliability of the Linde propel drive stems from the good availability of all its system components and its comprehensive safety concept.
– Availability: LinDrive™ boasts long-term, reliable control of the propel drive in any given situation and at any given point of operation, ensuring that the operator has complete, reliable control of his machinery at all times. The components are robust, making them ideal for continuous use and operation under extremely tough conditions.
– Safety: It is imperative that mobile machines offer high safety standards for the operator and his environment, both when working and when on the road. The LinDrive™ concept is tailored to each specific application, factoring in the various aspects of vehicle safety right down to MOT approval. This includes minimising the susceptibility of system components to faults and ensuring reliable machinery control in extreme situations or in the event of a fault.
Innovations at BAUMA
Linde Hydraulics is once again using the BAUMA event to unveil numerous product innovations. These innovations relate to Series 02 electronic and hydraulic system components, and the extraordinary benefits offered by these products are down to the LinDrive™ driving philosophy. Linde Hydraulics has long been combining product expertise and driving philosophy to produce high-performance system components that boost economic efficiency.
