I am working on a small press that will utilize a Delta controller and a double acting hydraulic cylinder.
The customer needs very precise control of the actual force applied to the product.
Peter, have you had any success using a small load cell inline with the cylinder rod and controlling based on the load cell reading instead of dual pressure transducers?
Perhaps one of these in the stud-mount version:

I have been unable to find a load cell signal conditioner that has an update rate faster than 70 milliseconds.
