Servo Power Units combine hydraulic power with the controllability of electric servo systems to deliver efficient and precise motion control. By generating hydraulic pressure only when motion is required, the SPU provides power-on-demand operation that improves energy efficiency compared to traditional hydraulic power units.

The Kyntronics SPU Series Compact Servo Power Unit – Power Unit Only option provides the core servo power unit while allowing engineers to integrate the servo motor and drive of their choice. It connects to your existing hydraulic cylinders or rotary motors via short hoses with robust fittings. Due to its flexible configurations, the servo power unit only option is a good fit for new or retrofit applications.

Where are Compact Servo Power Units (SPUs) typically used?

SPUs are used in new and retrofit applications where a compact, servo-controlled alternative to traditional HPUs are needed. They connect via short hoses to a linear cylinder or rotary actuator. Common uses include presses, mobile equipment, valve actuation, and washdown environments.

What benefits does a Compact Servo Power Unit (SPU) provide compared to a traditional hydraulic power unit (HPU)?

SPUs provide energy-efficient, power-on-demand operation, a sealed, low-maintenance design, and a compact footprint. Built-in servo control allows for precision position and force control, eliminating the need for external controls, making them a cost-effective alternative to traditional HPUs.

I want to upgrade from a traditional hydraulic power unit, but I want to use the existing cylinders that are connected to it. What are my options?

SPUs are designed for retrofit applications, connecting directly to existing cylinders or rotary actuators via short hoses. This allows you to upgrade to servo control while reducing energy use, leaks, and maintenance.
