Eaton expands its AxisPro product range with the two-stage KBH valves, in D08 size design simplifying machine control for demanding applications, such as injection and blow moulding, large presses, die casting and foundry, test and simulation and wood processing. The two-stage servo-proportional valve KBH offers on-board motion control, enabling closed loop drive control without the use of motion control cards.
The valve can be configured using Pro-FX software, and features built-in diagnostic LEDs and CANopen bus interface, making system commissioning and debugging easier. AxisPro KBH size D08 features 375 litre/min flow rate at 10 bar, 350 bar of maximum pressure rate and 30ms step response time, with 100 bar pilot pressure. The valve is designed in order to operate between -25 and 70°C, is sealed to IP65/67 and by request is also available with pressure sensors, which helps simplify the machine layout.
