Atos

Atos is a leading Italian manufacturer of industrial hydraulic components, specializing in proportional valves, servo valves, hydraulic pumps, cylinders, and electronic control systems for precision fluid power. With over 50 years of innovation in hydraulic drive technology, Atos delivers precision solutions for plastics processing, machine tools, foundries, presses, and industrial automation worldwide.

The Atos core range includes proportional directional control valves (DLHZO, DHA, DHZ series), proportional pressure and flow control valves, servo valves with zero-lap spool (DKHZO, DLKZOR), hydraulic gear pumps (PFE), piston pumps (PVPC), cylinders (CK, CE series), and complete hydraulic control modules. The Atos DLHZO-AEB direct-acting proportional valves are particularly popular for their high dynamic response, low hysteresis, and integrable electronic control (E-MI series).

Atos distinguishes itself through complete integration of mechanical and electronic technology: the Atos E-MI series digital electronics integrates directly into the valve for compact, self-regulating units with built-in closed-loop control. This eliminates external control cards and greatly simplifies wiring.

The Atos SMYTHS servo-proportional valves with high-response spool combine the simplicity of proportional technology with performance approaching traditional servo valves – ideal for modernizing existing installations without requiring full servo valves.

At Verkopershulp.nl we carry over 3,654 genuine Atos parts, including proportional valves, pumps, cylinders, electronic modules, and seal kits. As an authorized distributor we guarantee fast delivery, technical parameterization support, and full warranty on all Atos products.

History

Atos was founded in 1969 in Sesto Calende, Varese (Italy) by hydraulic engineer Alberto Bertolini. The company started as a hydraulic system design bureau and quickly grew into a manufacturer of proprietary proportional valve technology. In the 1970s Atos pioneered early electronic hydraulic control valves, long before this became the industry standard. In the 1980s and 1990s Atos gained international recognition for its proportional valve systems in plastics injection moulding and machine tools. The company invested heavily in electronics and digital control technology and became one of the first to integrate digital proportional electronics directly into the valve body. Today Atos has its headquarters and manufacturing in Sesto Calende with an international distribution network in more than 70 countries. The company supplies to the largest OEM manufacturers of injection moulding machines, presses, and machine tools. Atos is ISO 9001 certified and invests in eco-efficient hydraulic systems and Industry 4.0 connectivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an Atos proportional valve and a servo valve?
Proportional valves control pressure or flow proportionally to an electrical input signal with moderate dynamic response (bandwidth 10-50 Hz) and some hysteresis. Servo valves offer higher dynamics (100-200+ Hz), zero hysteresis, and more precise linear control, but are more expensive and require filtered oil to ISO 16/14/11. Atos SMYTHS proportional-servo valves offer an intermediate solution.
How do I parameterize an Atos E-MI electronic card?
Atos E-MI digital electronics boards are parameterized via Atos AES (Atos Electronic System) software, available as a free download. Via USB or RS232 you can set P-I-D control parameters, ramps, zero point, maximum currents, and dead band. Atos provides a comprehensive parameterization manual with each E-MI product.
Are Atos valves compatible with Bosch Rexroth and Parker hydraulic circuits?
Atos proportional and directional valves are manufactured to ISO 4401, ISO 5781, and CETOP mounting standards. They are therefore dimensionally interchangeable with valves from Bosch Rexroth, Parker, Eaton Vickers, and other CETOP manufacturers with the same mounting plate. Electrical connections and parameterization may differ.
What hydraulic oil is suitable for Atos valves?
Atos valves are designed for use with mineral hydraulic oil ISO VG 32-68. Oil temperature may range from -20°C to +60°C. For servo valves the minimum required cleanliness is ISO 16/14/11 (3 micron absolute filtration). Avoid phosphate ester fluids unless the valve is certified for them.
How quickly do Atos DLHZO proportional valves respond?
Atos DLHZO-AEB direct proportional valves have a step response from -10% to +90% in less than 15ms at nominal voltage. Bandwidth is approximately 25-35 Hz at -3dB. For faster responses the SMYTHS high-response valves are available with bandwidths up to 100 Hz.
What are the maintenance requirements for Atos hydraulic pumps?
Atos hydraulic gear pumps (PFE series) require clean hydraulic oil (ISO class 18/16/13 or better), correct inlet pressure, and correct rotation speed. Gear pumps have minimal preventive maintenance needs but can suffer wear with heavily contaminated oil. Replace the hydraulic filter regularly and monitor oil level and cleanliness using an oil analysis kit.
Does Verkopershulp.nl supply Atos seal kits?
Yes, we supply genuine Atos seal kits for all common valve and pump models. Kits contain O-rings, back-up rings, and gaskets in NBR, FKM (Viton), or PTFE material. Specify the model number and year of manufacture of your valve or pump for the correct seal kit.
How do I order Atos products through Verkopershulp.nl?
Search for the desired Atos model number in our online store or contact our specialists by phone or email. For complex configurations with electronic control we help you assemble the complete set (valve + electronics + seals). Delivery times for common models are typically 3-7 working days.
