Trajectory Tracking Control of Hydraulic Cylinder Preventing from the Unbalance State

The work to raise the bridge plate by using two hydraulic cylinders is very dangerous when generating the unbalance state between cylinders. For solving this problem, one cylinder is forced to follow the trajectory of another cylinder instead of applying the same trajectory to two cylinders at once. In this paper, the control method for dynamic stable on lifting the bridge plate is proposed. The simulation model is derived by using commercial software, AMESim and MatLab/simulink. The PID controller is designed on one cylinder for following the reference trajectory and the adaptive controller is designed on another cylinder for tracking the displacement of one cylinder. The performance improvement is shown by comparing the simulation results through computer simulation.
