CYLINDERS Proper Size & Selection Single Acting Single acting cylinders are hydraulically driven in one direction. These cylinders are used in many general purpose applications when retract speed is not a requirement. This cylinder type requires a pump source with a single acting valve for proper operation. Both Spring Return and Load Return cylinders are constructed and operated in a similar manner, but function differently on the return. cylinders Double Acting Spring Return cylinders are hydraulically extended, but utilize a spring for retraction assistance. Load Return cylinders are...

CYLINDERS Proper Size & Selection Force & Speed Calculations Load Flow: Created by the pump source. Pressure: Generated by resistance to flow and pressure from the pump source. This resistance is usually the result of a load. Pump Cylinder Effective Area Force: The amount of force a hydraulic cylinder can generate is equal to hydraulic pressure times the effective area of the cylinder. (Effective area is the surface area of the piston face in square inches.) For multiple cylinder systems, multiply the effective area times the number of cylinders times pressure to determine system force....
