Essential Relations in a Pump–Cylinder Hydraulic System

The figure below gives the summary of useful relations (SI units) of a pump-cylinder hydraulic system for highlighting their correlations. Joji Parambath Author / Trainer joji.p@hotmail.com Note: Several essential mathematical relations are also given in books ‘(1) Industrial Hydraulic Systems and Circuits -Basic Level (In the SI Units), (2) Industrial Hydraulics -Basic Level (In the […]

Pneumatic Stepper Sequencer – Design and Operating Principles

A multi-actuator pneumatic system may use many logic functions in its associated controller for obtaining a sequence of work operations. The sequential steps can easily be realized in a modular fashion using step modules. A step module is a unit designed as per the functional requirements of each step of the control sequence. As you […]

Manufacturing Process of Hydraulic Cylinders – Salient Points

Hydraulic cylinders are used in many types of machines and systems for industrial and mobile applications. The manufacturing process of cylinders mainly involves the following steps: design, heat treatment, machining, coating, assembly, and testing. The Design Phase, Cylinder Manufacturing In the design stage, the requirement specifications of the cylinder to be designed are transformed into […]

Environmental Effects of Hydraulic Fluids

In every hydraulic system, a tightly confined incompressible fluid medium is used to transmit energy from the power pack to the actuators in the system. The fluid medium is formulated from a base stock and additives. The base stock should possess all the essential characteristics to perform well in a particular class of hydraulic systems. […]
