12/5/2011
Reliable hybrid technology used in a new energy-saving solution for a variety of industrial applications
Böblingen, Germany, November 22, 2011 - Moog Industrial Group, a division of Moog Inc. (NYSE: MOG.A and MOG.B), featured a prototype for a new Electro Hydrostatic Actuator (EHA) at the SPS/IPC Drives Show 2011, held in Nuremburg, November 22-24. Combining hydraulic and electric technology in a self-contained system, Moog's innovative EHA concept integrates high performance Moog products including a Servo Motor, Hydraulic Pump, Hydraulic Valves, Manifold, Accumulator, Controller and Software.
Moog's engineers leveraged the company's expertise in both electric and hydraulic technologies to develop this optimized energy-efficient and reliable system. Moog has been providing industry-leading EHA systems for flight controls for over 18 years and now has begun working with machine builders to apply this expertise to industrial applications that require high force, energy savings, environmental cleanliness and elimination of hydraulic piping.
"At Moog, we refer to ourselves as 憈echnology-neutral' because we design both hydraulic and electric solutions," says Dr. Sherif El Henaoui, Moog Industrial. "Therefore we have developed a deep understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of each technology for particular applications. This solution leverages this know-how to create innovative hybrid designs that combine both technologies, in compact, reliable and highly efficient systems."
Unlike an electric actuator, Electro Hydrostatic technology requires no screws or gearing. It differs from hydraulic actuators in that it requires no hydraulic piping, thereby reducing cost and improving reliability. The system is fully self-contained as all hydraulic and electric components are highly integrated in the actuator assembly.
Electro Hydrostatic Actuators receive power from an electric source by wire and transform a typically electronic input command signal into motion. EHA uses fluidic transmission between the electric motor and actuator. Motors rotate only when movement is demanded, saving energy and wear. Low duty cycle or actuation on demand applications, that require the high force density of a hydraulic system, can benefit greatly from the energy savings of an EHA system. EHA includes hydraulic components and fluid, both are self-contained within the actuator assembly, eliminating the potential of leaks and environmental contamination.
This hybrid solution of hydraulic and electric drive technology allows the selection of the benefits of both technologies: The low energy consumption of the electric system by power only on demand, the easy energy storage for the fail safe movement and the high reliability of the hydraulic system.
EHAs also offer a number of overall system benefits and cost savings. Moog's EHA design offers machine builders high energy efficiency and reliability, reduced envelope size, less wear on components and up to 40% less weight. The self-contained EHA package removes the need for long hydraulic line lengths and rotary couplings, offering significant cost savings in applications such as oil & gas and power generation equipment. The integrated systems approach means greater reliability for the customer as less individual components are required, lowering costs and downtime. Redundancy and fail-safe features are also fully integrated offering minimal impact on cost, weight, envelope and reliability.
EHA is an ideal option for applications that have high force requirements and require redundant or advanced fail-safe systems, while also delivering energy, cost and environmental benefits. Typical applications include power generation, industrial machinery and oil & gas equipment.
"The motion control industry is seeking new technologies that address the need for better energy efficiency and reliability at lower weight and size," concludes Dr. El Henaoui. "Smart systems like EHA hybrid technology offer a new and innovative solution suited to a range of industrial applications."

The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner." AND ENTERS UPON HIS PARENTAL RELATIONS TO LITTLE PETE SKIDMORE. "Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
