Abstract
A servo system for a braked accelerative transport in which a signal representing velocity of a carriage within the transport is compared to a first reference signal representing desired carriage velocity. The comparison yields an error signal which is used to adjust the brake of the transport. A hydraulic valve having an adjustable needle is used as the brake. A second selectable reference signal is provided so that the first reference signal can be bypassed when the carriage is reset at high velocity or is at reset. The valve is also bypassed on reset so that the adjusted brake mechanism is left intact on reset.
