Folks,
I know we are mostly about tractors. I don't have a question about my Kubota, but do have one about hydraulics. Because you guys seem to understand the topic I am coming to you.
I have a new custom built, electric hydraulic press and need advice. The press has a 2 hp motor and a 5" cylinder with a 16" stroke. I need to install some type of "valve" or "device" to be able to dial in a specific, and in my case, lower, gauge pressure. I am familiar with calculating force. That is not the problem. I would like to put in a device that I could set to a specific pressure that would shut off the motor, or bypass the hydraulic lines at a specific, preset pressure. I would like repeatable pressing within small limits. Advice is welcomed on how this can be accomplished. Thanks to any who reply.
