Construction
The hydraulic cylinder converts hydraulic energy into mechanical energy. It generates linear movements. For this reason, it is also referred to as a linear motor.

Type of Mounting
If the machine member moves in a straight line type motion, a fixed mount can be used. If the machine member is required to move in an arc a pivot mounting must be used.

Seals
The function of seals is to prevent leakage losses in hydraulic components. Since pressure losses also occur as a result of leakage losses, seals are of considerable importance for the efficiency of a hydraulic system. Static seals: O-rings for the cylinder housing Flat seals for the oil reservoir cover Dynamic seals: Piston and piston rod seals Rotary shaft seals on turning devices

Cup seals
Used on medium and large bore cylinders. Seal in one direction only. One for single acting Two for double acting Low radial exertion to reduce the static break out friction High compliance

Z Rings
Used for piston seals on smaller bore cylinders Seals in both directions Take up less space Z shape acts as a light radial spring providing low radial exertion and high compliance.

Wear ring
A wear ring is an open band fitted around the piston. It is made from a hard plastic material. In the event of a high side load, it becomes a bearing that prevents excessive distortion of the seals. Protects against scoring of the barrel from the piston.

Hydro motors
Hydraulic motors are components in the working section. They are drive components (actuators). They convert hydraulic energy into mechanical energy and generate rotary movements (rotary actuator). If the rotary movement only covers a certain angular range, the actuator is range, referred to as a swivel drive. drive. Hydraulic motors have the same characteristic values as pumps. However, pumps. in the case of hydraulic values we speak of capacity rather than displacement volume.
