    Cushion Cylinder design

    As some others say, it is hard to understand your idea exactly. But here is my interpretation... The way you have drawn the schematic the needle valve fills no function. I assume you have put the needle valve there to control flow from the capped side to the rod side. That won't work since oil...

    Constant LS pressure at no load

    This is just an attempt to shed some light on how an LS system works. LS pressure is supposed to be 0 (zero) if no hydraulic function is activated. The pump goes down to a standby mode at a low pressure. That pressure setting can vary depending on the type of machine. Approx 35 bar sounds...

    i have a hydraulic motor with attac

    I would help a lot in a opening post by telling us what type of application this is about. So the brakes are applied mechanically with a spring? As I understand you the brake release pressure is supposed to not exceed 30 bar, right? And the rest of the hydraulic system has a higher max...

    Volume Flow Rates in and out of Double Acting Cylinder

    This flow intensification/FI Jacc mentions happens on differential cylinders capped side when retracting the cylinder. That means that we get x% higher flow returning from the capped side than the pump flow entering the rod side. A normally designed hydraulic differential cylinder has a capped...

    Volume Flow Rates in and out of Double Acting Cylinder

    If you have a double action DIFFERENTIAL cylinder and supply 10 L/min to the capped side it will come out 10 L/min from the rod side. But the 10 L/min from the rod side is the sum of oil volume and rod volume. Accordingly, if we reverse the direction of travel and supply 10 L/min to the rod side...

    Using a pneumatic cylinder or syringe to compress air and move a payload very fast

    The difference between your concept and the airgun is that in your concept you store the energy in the compressed air and in the air gun the energy is stored in a compressed spring. And the spring pushes the piston that compresses the air when shooting the pellet. The stiffer spring and the...

    Hydraulic flows

    Are all these hoses and fittings in series? What are the cylinder diameter dimensions of the piston and the rod? If more than one cylinder actuator, are they operated one by one individual or several of them simultaneously? Is this a fixed displacement pump or a variable displacement constant...

    Adding to the hydraulic system

    why a hydraulic powered air compressor? I understand you are in need of compressed air. But pneumatic systems most often run intermittent, intermittent use, and intermittent air supply to a pressurized air tank. Also, pneumatic systems are not really a good choice for high-power applications. So...

    Converting a Variable Displacement System to Fixed

    I agree that it is a Q from someone that does not know a lot about hydraulics in general. That's why I tried to lay out some explanation "cards" about how these pumps works And this question shows the ignorance So before we actually know exactly what OP thinks is possible to accomplish we need...

    This is how the pump manages the pressure with the compensator Disconnect the compensator and plug the ports/holes in the pump housing and the pump can't destroke
