Cylinder Design
The Cylinder Design parameter selects the type of hydraulic cylinder and determines how the piston and piston rod diameters are used for force and area calculations.
Differential
The differential cylinder is a double-acting hydraulic cylinder with a single-ended piston rod.
Synchronous
The synchronous cylinder is a double-acting hydraulic cylinder with a through-rod.
Plunger
The plunger cylinder is a single-acting hydraulic cylinder without a piston rod.
Cylinder Bore Diameter
Inner diameter of the hydraulic cylinder bore. Used to calculate the piston area and the force.
Cylinder Rod Diameter
Diameter of the cylinder rod. Relevant for the design of differential and synchronous cylinders when calculating the effective piston area on the rod side.
