What does a double-acting hydraulic cylinder do?

Release Time :

2025-01-26

Double-acting hydraulic cylinders are bi-directional systems. Here, pressure is applied on both sides of the hydraulic cylinder. This design allows for both extension and retraction motions, providing versatility and efficiency for your various applications. This machine provides better control and accuracy for your application.

Hydraulic Pump

Double-acting hydraulic cylinders are able to pump hydraulic oil to both sides of the plunger. Connection ports located near both ends allow the piston rod to move forward and backward. The additional ports also provide better control of the plunger during retraction and ensure that it always returns to its starting point.

Double-acting cylinders can apply force in both directions. The piston cylinder is divided into two pressurized chambers, allowing the rod to achieve outward and backward strokes. Pressurized oil can move the rod in either direction.

Hydraulic Pump

Double-acting cylinders have faster and more predictable retraction speeds, making them a better choice for projects that require repeatable accuracy.
