Abstract
In previous studies on the magnetorheological piston, the system performance was evaluated only as a traditional damping system. Here, the piston is connected to a pump to create a hydraulic compliant actuator, and is capable to control the piston speed and force independently by using the pump and electromagnet voltages, respectively. Different combinations of these parameters can be used to achieve diverse system properties; e.g. low response time or energy efficiency. Several experiments are conducted to evaluate its performance, including force, friction, speed, and step response. The results indicated that the potential of the devices to be used as an active system for compliant hydraulic robotic applications.
