Loading Ramp
Problem Description
The loading ramp of a car ferry must be capable of being set to different heights. The ramp is
raised and lowered by a hydraulic cylinder. The motion must be carried out smoothly and at constant
speed. A flow control valve is to be used to adjust the speed. This must be installed in such a way as to
prevent excessive pressures from developing within the system.
