Series 1-S Introduction - GKD 1S Series User Manual

SERIES 1-S INTRODUCTION

Series 1-S is a stand alone slew limiter intended for use on hydraulic excavators and similar machines
where an upper structure rotates relative to the base structure, and where slew limits are required.
Series 1-S monitors the slew position of the machine by means of counting of the teeth on the slew
ring, and limits the slew movement of the machine to between two points which are set by the
machine operator.
Pre-emptive stop algorithms will monitor the speed of approach to the limit and will progressively
apply the motion cut earlier the faster the speed of approach, ensuring the machine stops before the
limit is breached.
