Building upon the cross-coupling synchronous control method, a coupling sliding mode surface is formulated, incorporating the single-cylinder following error and double-cylinder synchronization error. Additionally, a sliding mode synchronous controller is devised to ensure the convergence of both the single-cylinder following and synchronization error. The hyperbolic tangent function is introduced to reduce the single-cylinder following error and the buffeting of the double-cylinder synchronization error curve under sliding mode synchronous control. The simulation results show that the synchronization accuracy of the sliding mode cross-coupling synchronization control in the initial stage of the system is 53.1% higher than that of the Proportional-Derivative (PD) cross-coupling synchronization, and the synchronization accuracy in the steady state of the system is improved by 90%. The designed synchronous controller has better performance under external disturbances.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23239387","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,24]],"date-time":"2023-11-24T06:51:28Z","timestamp":1700808688000},"page":"9387","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Cross-Coupled Sliding Mode Synchronous Control for a Double Lifting Point Hydraulic Hoist"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Chungeng","family":"Sun","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiangxiang","family":"Dong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jipeng","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Kunming University of Science and Technology, Kunming 650500, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"103722","DOI":"10.1016\/j.autcon.2021.103722","article-title":"Trajectory control of electro-hydraulic position servo system using improved PSO-PID controller","volume":"127","author":"Feng","year":"2021","journal-title":"Autom.
