Position Control System from Advance Lifts

Advance Lifts introduced Position Control System for applications where a limit switch or proximity sensor is not accurate enough and/or not flexible enough. Position Control option can provide platform positioning to multiple positions with a precision and repeatability up to +/-1/16th of an inch on large deck platforms and up to +/- 1/32nd of an inch on smaller industrial tables. The system requires the use of a continuous duty rated power unit and consists of an linear displacement transducer, a proportional hydraulic valve system, a programmable logic controller, the necessary supporting hardware and a proprietary software program.

Possible configurations include platform indexing, repeating multiple positions, user-friendly programming of positions and more. Platform operation can be initiated automatically, by an operator, by inputs from another machine or from a network connection.
