Focus on: Pumps & Valves Process, Controls & Plant October/November 2025 www.pwemag.co.uk Plant & Works Engineering | 25 Danfoss Power Solutions has introduced its nextgeneration Level 1 AxisPro valve, completing the Vickers by Danfoss line of servo performance, software-configurable proportional valves. Featuring a new digital amplifier and support for industry-leading network protocols, the valve offers advanced performance, control, and seamless connectivity. Complementing the valve’s launch is Pro-FX Configure v2, the redesigned software configuration platform featuring an intuitive interface, streamlined setup, and real-time tuning for faster and easier installations. AxisPro valves are ideal for demanding industrial hydraulic applications such as presses, machine tools, factory automation, and more. Next-generation AxisPro valves offer an upgrade to the Vickers by Danfoss KBSDG proportional valve lineup, giving customers a smarter, faster, and fully connected motion control solution. Designed for seamless integration into a wide range of applications, the new valves feature a digital amplifier and support for widely used network protocols such as Profinet, EtherCAT, Ethernet/IP, and CANopen. The digital amplifier increases precision and improves tuning, enabling easier system optimisation and enhanced performance. Through flow linearisation, the valve delivers consistent, stable flow across all operating conditions. Dither and deadband adjustments eliminate valve stick-slip and dead zones, resulting in smooth and precise motion. AxisPro valves feature a robust, highperformance design. The valves offer best-inclass power capacity and speed plus pressure gain of 2.05%. Ingress protection ratings of IP65 and IP67 plus ambient temperature ratings of 70°C (158°F) increase reliability. Optional corrosion resistance and extreme vibration resistance (up to 50g) further enhance the valve’s durability for use in severe applications. AxisPro Level 1 valves are available in six models. The single-stage KBSD14 is now available in 03 and 05 sizes (NG06 and NG10). The two-stage KBHD15 will be available in 05, 07, 08, and 10 sizes (NG10, NG16, NG25, and NG32) in November 2025. The valves are ideal for a wide range of industries, including primary metals, rubber and plastics, wood processing, pulp and paper, oil and gas, and civil engineering.
