Double post. Sorry.
It would use a master cylinder and a slave cylinder. They need to be sized appropriately and the master cylinder has a bleeder in the piston so the system can be phased. This particular application would be different from the typical master/slave setup in that the cylinders would be moving in opposite directions rather than the typical common direction. Tough to design and probably cheaper and easier to use two separate control valves and separate cylinders.
Only one would need bypass capability for rephrasing. You are correct in thinking the cylinders would be the same dimensionally, so apart from the rephrasing challenge it would actually be fairly straightforward.
Bored are we?![]()
To really get crazy you could use a valve with float spool option along with master slave and then have maximum tilt and float features. Would require a valve with very minimal spool leakage though to prevent drifting.
