On April 28th, a unique online technology press conference was held as scheduled at the Zhonglian Smart Industry City High Altitude Machinery Park.
At the meeting, Zoomlion Intelligent High Altitude Machine officially released a new generation of distributed drive electro-hydraulic integrated control technology, marking a new breakthrough in the electro-hydraulic control technology of arm type high-altitude work platforms and injecting new impetus into the green development of the global high altitude machine industry. At the same time, it is also another demonstration of China's research and development and manufacturing capabilities for high-altitude work platforms to the world!
Product oriented: safer, simpler, and greener
At the spring and summer new technology press conference, Zhang Bin, Deputy General Manager of Zoomlion Intelligent High Altitude Machine, personally launched the industry's first ZT28JE-V electric straight arm high-altitude operation platform equipped with the new generation distributed drive electro-hydraulic integrated control technology. Numerous industry elites gathered together to witness this moment.
Zhang Bin, Deputy General Manager of Zoomlion Intelligent High Speed Machine, stated on site that with profound technological accumulation and forward-looking market insights, Zoomlion Intelligent High Speed Machine has taken the lead in releasing a revolutionary new technology in the industry - the new generation distributed drive electro-hydraulic integrated control technology. The birth of this technology not only fully demonstrates the strong strength of Zoomlion Intelligent High Altitude Machine in product technology research and manufacturing, but also provides technical reserves for the future intelligent extension of high-altitude operation platforms, which will be a major technological upgrade.
Currently, customers are increasingly focusing on the electrification and greening of high-altitude work platform products. Strong endurance and green environmental protection have become key indicators for measuring high-altitude operation machinery. The new generation of distributed drive electro-hydraulic integrated control technology is more energy-efficient and green in practical use compared to similar products in the past. Its operation response is faster, operation is smoother, and maintenance is more convenient.
The core idea of the new generation of distributed drive electro-hydraulic integrated control technology is to transform the traditional centralized driving mode into an independent driving mode for each execution unit. This technology achieves precise matching between power and demand by optimizing the layout of power sources and the design of the main valve block system, significantly reducing system pressure and flow losses, and improving energy utilization efficiency.
Compared to traditional hydraulic systems, the new system shortens the distance between the power source and the actuator, effectively reducing energy loss, further reducing driving noise, and reducing energy consumption by more than 35% in typical working conditions such as leveling and amplitude variation; Under the same battery capacity and operating conditions, the new system can increase the Hurd cycle of the product by more than 40%. The new high-altitude work platform can maintain more efficient and stable performance under long-term and high-intensity working conditions. Based on 10 years of use of a 28 meter electric boom, it can reduce carbon emissions during use by 14.1 tons.
Compared with similar products, the Zoomlion ZT28JE-V electric straight arm high-altitude operation platform, equipped with the new generation distributed drive electro-hydraulic integrated control technology, has reduced the platform pipeline by nearly 70 meters due to the independent and close proximity of each action to the actuator. Avoiding responsiveness issues caused by excessively long pipelines, the system's responsiveness has been improved by more than 20%; Composite actions do not interfere with each other, precise and efficient control, and the smoothness of composite actions is improved by more than 30%.
Meanwhile, due to the significant reduction in the number of complex hydraulic components such as high-pressure oil pipes, the hydraulic system is simpler and clearer, maintenance and troubleshooting are more convenient, and the product is simpler; By optimizing battery capacity and improving battery life, the future battery capacity can be further reduced, reducing product battery maintenance costs by more than 40%, resulting in higher product reliability and longer lifespan. This series of progress marks a new stage of green and efficient development for the high-altitude work platform industry.
