In this paper, a control strategy combining the feedback linearization theory and sliding mode variable structure theory is proposed to solve various nonlinear factors, uncertainty of external disturbance and high-precision pressure control problems in the Direct-Drive Volume Control (DDVC) electro-hydraulic servo system. The nonlinear mathematical model of the DDVC electro-hydraulic servo system is established, and the nonlinear factors in the system are accurately linearized by the feedback linearization theory. The uncertainty of external disturbance in the system is compensated by the sliding mode control variable structure theory. The feedback-linearized sliding mode control algorithm proposed in this paper is verified using the DDVC electro-hydraulic servo system experimental platform. The experimental results show that, compared with the classical PID control, the proposed control algorithm can effectively improve the pressure output precision, as well as the dynamic response characteristics, of the DDVC system.

Aiming at the high-precision position control of electro-hydraulic servo pump control system, a compensation control algorithm based on fuzzy control theory is proposed based on the classical PID control algorithm for the control of factors such as oil compression and system leakage. Firstly, a mathematical model of the system was established, and online identification of load disturbance was carried out. Then, oil compression and system leakage compensation controllers were established, and the position error caused by the load disturbance was compensated based on fuzzy control rules. Finally, the position control effect was verified using an experimental platform. The results show that the load disturbance compensation control strategy can significantly reduce the influence of load disturbance of the system. The steady-state accuracy of the system reached ±0.01 mm, which significantly enhanced the anti-disturbance ability of the system.

The electrohydraulic servo variable speed volume pump control system (hereinafter referred to as ESPCS) is integrated with a permanent magnet synchronous motor (hereinafter referred to as servo motor), a fixed-displacement pump, and a hydraulic cylinder. By controlling the servo motor speed, the output flow of the system can be controlled, as can the displacement, force, and speed of the hydraulic cylinder. Compared with the traditional electro-hydraulic servo valve control system, the ESPCS has the advantages of high power-to-weight ratio, energy saving, and environmental friendliness. However, due to the extremely nonlinear flow output of the ESPCS, further improvement of system control performance is greatly hindered. This paper focuses on the nonlinear characteristics of servo motor, fixed-displacement pump, hydraulic cylinder, and other key components in the system. A compensation method based on nonlinear characteristic mapping is proposed. Compared with the traditional PID control method (pressure control accuracy ± 0.12 MPa), the pressure control accuracy of the system is greatly improved (pressure control accuracy ± 0.037 MPa), which opens up a new way to improve the pressure control accuracy of the ESPCS.

Electro-hydraulic servo pump control belongs to an electro-hydraulic coupling motion control system, which involves the mutual penetration and integration of mechanical, hydraulic, electrical, control, and other disciplines, as well as the time-varying, uncertain, multisource, and multifield problems of the internal and external excitation of the system, which makes the electro-hydraulic servo pump control system have the characteristics of a complex model, strong coupling, nonlinearity, and time-variation, resulting in the low accuracy and poor dynamic characteristics of the system. This paper takes a servo motor quantitative pump hydraulic cylinder load as the main dynamic line; divides the electro-hydraulic servo pump control system into a motor pump unit, a hydraulic transmission unit and a power output unit; analyzes its electromechanical coupling characteristics, pressure flow coupling characteristics, and mechanical–hydraulic coupling characteristics, respectively; studies the multiparameter characteristics of the system under the electromechanical–hydraulic coupling conditions; and summarizes the influence laws between the parameters. Finally, through a MATLAB/Simulink simulation, it provides a theoretical basis and guidance for high-performance control of the system.

An electro-hydraulic servo pump control system realizes the basic action of a hydraulic cylinder by controlling the servo motor, which effectively improves the problems of a traditional valve control system such as high energy consumption, low power-to-weight ratio, and poor anti-pollution ability. However, the static accuracy and dynamic performance of an electro-hydraulic servo pump control system are limited due to the electro-hydraulic coupling and flow nonlinearity. Based on this, in this paper, we establish a mathematical model of an electro-hydraulic servo pump control system. Starting from the internal control mechanism of the system, the Simulink simulation model is established to analyze the dynamic response of the system current loop, speed loop, position loop, and pressure loop. The system parameters are obtained by combining the system dynamic analysis and component technology samples. The position/force control model of the electro-hydraulic servo pump control system is built for simulation, and the experimental platform is built for experimental verification. The results show that the system position/force control can achieve good dynamic response and steady-state accuracy after the parameters are determined based on the dynamic analysis of control loops.
