Power management company Eaton announces the production launch of its SBX advanced steering valve, a fail-operational steer-by-wire valve for off-highway machinery.
- Compact, modular design
- Increases machine flexibility and intelligence by enabling machine designers to tailor steering performance to the operator’s preferences and operating conditions
- Designed for use in fully electronically controlled steer-by-wire system
- Fail-operational functionality is achieved by mounting the valve to a secondary electrohydraulic valve or manifold
- Lack of hydraulic connection to the cab enables valve to be remotely mounted, allowing for more flexible machine design and reduced cab noise
- Can be paired with OEM’s machine control system or an Eaton controller, further increasing design flexibility
- SIL 2 and PLd capable, enabling OEMs to develop machinery that complies with international standards
- Well suited for use with systems incorporating multiple steering wheels or alternative devices, such as a joystick or lever
