The behaviour of manipulators equipped with hydraulic actuators is dom
inated by the dynamics of the hydraulics. The aim of an inner/outer-lo
op control structure is to mask these hydraulic dynamics with an inner
-loop. Constructing the inner-loop by using the inverse of the actuato
r dynamics, or by placing the poles of the actuator system, is fundame
ntally different. An analysis of these two options concludes that a po
le placement is the best choice. First results of an actual implementa
tion of a proposed method on an industrial hydraulic drive system show
s the practical relevance of this controller.
