Abstract
A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a body, a lift system, and a controller. The lift system includes a lift arm actuator, a pump, and an electric motor. The pump is configured to power the lift arm actuator and is driven by the electric motor. The controller is configured to receive a user input that specifies a position of the lift arm actuator within a movement range, determine a flow demand required to move the lift arm actuator to the position, determine a motor speed that satisfies the flow demand, and communicate the motor speed to the electric motor.
