ACE Hydraulic feed controls are recommended as the perfect solution when sawing, cutting, drilling and in order to prevent the stick-slip effect on pneumatic cylinders. They can be precisely adjusted and provide speeds from 1/2“/min. (12 mm/min.) with a very low feed force or up to 1.5“/min. (38 m/min.) with a high feed rate.
These maintenance-free, ready-to-install hydraulic feed controls are self-contained hydraulic elements regulated by a precision throttle. The feed rate is set from the outside by turning the setting adjuster. The tried-and-tested rolling diaphragms used in many ACE shock absorbers also serve as a dynamic sealing element for a hermetic seal as well as volume compensation for the piston rod and provide the resetting of the piston when the force is removed.
Hydraulic Feed Controls from Ace Controls, Inc. Product Families
Hydraulic Feed Controls VC25: For precision adjustment of feed rates
Adjustable
Compression force 6.74 lbs to 787 lbs
Stroke 0.59 in to 4.92 in
Precise adjustment for any type of application: Hydraulic feed controls of the product family VC are ideally suited for the precise tuning of constant feed rates. The thread of the outer body of this closed hydraulic element allows simple assembly. Smooth outer bodies can also be supplied.
As the hydraulic oil is forced out through the throttle opening, a constant feed rate is achieved on the stroke. In the models up to 2.17““ (55 mm) stroke, the tried and tested rolling diaphragm, known from ACE shock absorbers, serves as a dynamic seal, as volume compensation of the piston rod and as a reset element.
Precision hydraulic feed controls of the product family VC are used in automotive and industrial applications as well as in mechanical engineering and the electronics industry.
Hydraulic Feed Controls MA, MVC:Designed for applications with low precision requirements
Adjustable
Compression force 2 lbs to 800 lbs
Stroke 0.28 in to 1.58 in
Many application options: the hydraulic feed controls in models MA and MVC are similar to that of the VC model. However, these hydraulic controls have been designed for applications that require less precision.
There are also plenty of accessories for the MA and MVC models. All products are ready-to-install, maintenance-free, stable in temperature and avoid stick-slip effect. Speeds from 0.47““/min. (12 mm/min.) can be driven at a low thrust force using the adjustment screw on the base of the hydraulic control.
Hydraulic feed controls with the designations MA and MVC are especially used in handling modules or linear carriages and also for applications with changing usage data.
