 For many products and equipment, engineers should go with custom cylinders . It lets engineers “build” cylinders that fit the customers’ needs and eliminates the inherent inefficiencies of under- or over-engineering. There are several key design aspects to keep in mind when specifying custom cylinders. Each of these considerations presents a challenge for standard cylinders, but custom designs can overcome these challenges and turn them into opportunities for better cylinder performance. Considerations include: Cylinder sizing. An inappropriately sized cylinder can have drastic implications for the performance, efficiency, and reliability of any hydraulic system. Cylinder barrel bore size is particularly important, as it determines the force the actuator can generate. If the cylinder diameter is too small, the actuator may not reach the customer’s targeted speeds or cycle times. Rod choice. When choosing the best rod for a cylinder, its diameter and material type are important....

Hydraulic cylinder  systems are made to handle demanding work conditions and harsh environments. But even the most rugged, high-performing equipment can fail under certain conditions. In work environments involving high and low temperatures, the hydraulic cylinders and components of these powerful systems are especially prone to damage. Whether you operate industrial or mobile hydraulic equipment, these tips will help you understand the effects of high and low temperatures on hydraulic systems and how to protect them from damage. PROTECTING HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS IN EXTREME HEAT All hydraulic systems generate heat during operation. Extremely high temperatures, however, whether it’s from mechanical or environmental sources, heat can do a number on your hydraulic system. High Temperatures and Hydraulic Fluid Viscosity You know how oil thins out once you add it to a hot pan? Well, heat has that same effect on hydraulic fluid and lubricants. In fact, heat is considered a type of hydraulic...

  Hydraulic cylinders, jacks, or rams. The names vary but whatever you choose to call them the definition is the same. A   hydraulic cylinder   is a device that harnesses the pressure generated in a hydraulic system to move a load. Due to the wide variety of cylinder options to choose from, you will need to consider your needs carefully when selecting a cylinder for your job. What stroke is required? Related to the maximum collapsed height, is the stroke length required. Stroke is defined as the difference between the fully extended height and the fully retracted height of the cylinder. It’s the distance between the top of the plunger piston and the bottom of the stop ring. For jobs that need extra stroke, there are  telescopic hydraulic cylinders  including low-height versions. The stroke determines how far the cylinder will lift, push, pull, or move your load. When considering the  stroke  of a cylinder, you should keep within 80% of the maximum stro...

  Hydraulic cylinders  are available in a variety of styles and can be mounted in numerous ways. While they come in countless variations, they are usually built to certain standards.  A basic cylinder has no mounts, so users typically specify the necessary mounting type and hardware when purchasing a cylinder. Three general styles include cylinders that have: • Fixed mounts that absorb force along the centerline of a cylinder. • Fixed mounts that do not absorb force along the centerline. • Pivot mounts that drive a load in a curved path. Here’s a look at some of the most common variants. Flange mounts:  Front flange mount (designated MF1), front flange extra mount (MF5), and front head flange mount (ME5) are all methods of mounting the cylinder off of, or part of, the head itself. MF1 has a rectangular flange attached to the head, which extends from the sides of the cylinder, and the MF5 has a larger square flange extending in all directions, which provides extra str...
