INDUSTRIAL MACHINE INCLUDING AUTOMATED DUMP CONTROL
Embodiments described herein provide for the control of an industrial machine dump operation by monitoring a position of the piston within a dump cylinder. The position of the piston is determined using a sensor within the dump cylinder. The sensor generates and provides an output signal to a controller. Based the output signal from the sensor, the controller is configured to limit the travel of the dump cylinder during the dump operation to reduce wear on the dump cylinder (e.g., by preventing damage caused when the dump cylinder is extending or retracting rapidly and the internal cylinder components make forceful contact with the rod or cap end).
