A Comprehensive Guide to Hydraulic Cylinders: Types, Functions, and Applications
Hydraulic cylinders are machines. They use pressurized hydraulic fluid to create linear movement. It has a cylindrical barrel and a piston. A rod moves in and out of the cylinder to generate the force. Hydraulic cylinders work on Pascal's Law. It states that, in a confined fluid, pressure is transmitted undiminished throughout. Hydraulic cylinders multiply forces dramatically and ease movement.
