Abstract: A method for operating an axial piston machine of swashplate design, in which a swashplate is settable by means of an adjustment device, and in which a controlled variable of the axial piston machine is regulated by predetermining a manipulated variable. Under the assumption of a constant intended value of the controlled variable, a future profile of the controlled variable is ascertained using a model of the axial piston machine in which respective current values of at least one operating variable of the axial piston machine, which comprises the controlled variable, and a current value of the manipulated variable are taken into account. A value to be set for the manipulated variable is ascertained and set taking into account the future profile of the controlled variable.

Abstract: A method for controlling a hydrostatic drive, which has a driving engine, a hydraulic pump coupled to the driving engine and a hydraulic motor coupled to the hydraulic pump by way of a pressurized hydraulic work line, includes calculating a manipulated variable vector comprising at least one manipulated variable for the hydrostatic drive based on (i) an output torque setpoint value for a torque on a secondary shaft driven by the hydraulic motor, (ii) a rotational speed and torque of the driving engine emerging from a predetermined operating point characteristic for the driving engine, and (iii) volumetric and mechanical losses of at least one adjuster unit comprising the hydraulic pump and the hydraulic motor. The manipulated variable vector is used to control the hydrostatic drive.
