Abstract
A control system for a hydraulic punch press is adapted to dissipate the energy stored in a hydraulic actuator so that the punch will exit the workpiece without substantial release impact. The control system includes a signal generator for producing a progressively increasing command signal while the punch penetrates the workpiece, a position transducer for producing a negative feedback signal indicating the actual punch position during such penetration, and a summing point for supplying the difference between the command and actual signals as an error signal to a servovalve used to control operation of the actuator.
