This hydropneumatic feed system is used to feed the drill when drilling wooden system components. The individual cylinders are pneumatically pressurized on the base side, with the rod-side oil being fed into a pressure converter via individual throttle check valves. Pneumatically actuated stop valves in the oil circuit enable individual cylinders to be stopped in a precise position. The pressure converter is pneumatically pressurized for the collective return stroke of the cylinders.
