We design, install and service electro hydraulic positioning systems in paper mills, saw mills, and special applications to other industries. We have unique experience in this field based on our long history and the delivery of several thousand systems that combine our expertise in positioning technology with our force measurement technology.

Our CPU-based electronic systems can communicate with host PC/PLC systems via fieldbus. Control parameters and calibration values may be set up through terminal programs in a PC-based environment. Our control system for sawmill machinery can be found in most countries with lumber industries. Over the years, we have shipped control systems for thousands of axes. Nobel Weighing Systems are known worldwide for controlling web tension, roll pressure, reeling, and disc gaps in pulp and paper operations and cellulose operations. Our systems are ideal for use with industrial machines with high set speeds and wide operating ranges that require high set forces. All systems are factory-calibrated and ready to be put into operation immediately after installation.

The development of electro-hydraulic systems started in the 1940s, for artillery gun control (Bofors). Subsequent development involved systems for sawmill and pulp-and-paper applications.
