Compact flow control valve replaces complex control valve technology in press applications

We have developed a specialized valve for controlled pressure increase and decrease for a client’s custom application in hydraulic presses. What sets it apart: Using a precisely adjustable, finely metered flow, we were able to completely avoid conventional, failure-prone proportional or control valves.

The innovative control system enables high pressure control accuracy – all with a simple and robust design. This allows functions that would otherwise require complex valve technology to be realized with minimal technical effort. The solution is ideal for applications with high demands on process reliability and repeat accuracy, such as those found in hydraulic pressing operations.

Technical specifications of the valve:

– Maximum operating pressure: 350 bar

– Maximum flow rate: 5 l/min

– Medium: Hydraulic oil based on mineral oil

– Temperature range: -30 °C to +80 °C

Development was carried out entirely in-house – from specification, design, and prototyping to full series production. Our customers benefit from our extensive in-house manufacturing capabilities, many years of expertise in valve technology and close, collaborative project management. BOTT Smart Hydraulics delivers customized solutions that make processes more efficient, durable and cost-effective – especially when it comes to technically demanding challenges in hydraulics.
