EN This paper presents the research results related to the use of the haptic joystick to control the electrohydraulic and electric linear drives. The main aim of this study is to examine the extent to which the use of haptic interface with force feedback and the corresponding control algorithms can contribute to improving the quality and safety of manual control of these drives. In the research several control algorithms have been proposed and validated. The investigations were performed in simulation and on a test station, using a PC with the input/output card and Simulink software. At first, the simulation model of the hydraulic and DC drive was built and connected with real haptic joystick, which enabled the control algorithm development. Then the same joystick was used in experimental investigations. The obtained results showed that the haptic interface can greatly improve the safety of the control of hydraulic and electric drives.
