The AxisPro proportional valves by Eaton provide integrated programmable control capabilities in sophisticated electro-hydraulic axis control applications. They are designed to support both centralized and distributed axis control architectures in high-performance applications in woodworking, wind turbines, pulp and paper production, metal forming, plastic injection and blow molding, primary metals, and other industries. The valves contain both programmable onboard electronics and integral spool Linear Voltage Differential Transformer (LVDT) sensors to provide precise, accurate, responsive axis control capabilities. The initial products are offered in ISO-3 and ISO-5 sizes with rated flows of 40 lpm and 100 lpm (10.6 and 26.4 gpm), Dynamic bandwidth for the ISO-3 valves is 150 Hz and 100Hz for the larger ISO-5 models. Both have 350 Bar (5,075 psi) rated P, A and B ports and 250 Bar (3,625 psi) rated T-port. They offer IP65 and IP67 protection against dirt and moisture ingression, and 85°C ambient temperature ratings.
