Abstract :
A control system for a front-end loader linkage is specified and developed. Using a microcomputer, the controller is capable of positioning the linkage in either Cartesian or angular motion with the ability to store and recall trajectories. The hardware and software used in a scale model, and the typical response of the linkage are shown.
