Overview
The Moog Electrohydrostatic Pump Unit (EPU) is at the heart of electrohydrostatic actuation systems and helps enable the deployment of a decentralized drive system. This eliminates the need for a hydraulic power unit and complex piping and helps reducing the overall machine footprint. The compact product design features a unique interface that enables direct mounting on to a cylinder, thereby minimizing the requirement of additional space on each axis.
Benefits:
- High energy efficiency reduces operating costs
- Environmental cleanliness lowers maintenance & operating costs, risk of fire
- High-force capability provides a viable alternative to EH actuation
- Unique manifold Interface enables direct mounting reducing piping and maintenance efforts and machine footprint
- Self-contained and compact product design reduces space requirements for the machine
- 4-Quadrant operation eliminates the need for a control valve; helps realize close-looped control
