What does the hydraulic cylinder stroke mean?

Hydraulic cylinder stroke is the difference between the maximum total length of the hydraulic cylinder when ejecting and the minimum total length when retracting.

The stroke of the cylinder shall be the stroke of the hydraulic cylinder. The stroke of the hydraulic cylinder refers to the action length of the piston rod and the hydraulic cylinder with buffer device, including the buffer length.

A hydraulic cylinder is a hydraulic actuator that converts hydraulic energy into mechanical energy and does linear reciprocating motion (or swing motion). It is simple in structure and reliable in operation. When using it to realize reciprocating movement, the decelerating device can be removed, and there is no transmission clearance, the movement is stable, so it is widely used in various mechanical hydraulic systems. The output force of the hydraulic cylinder is proportional to the effective area of the piston and the pressure difference between the two sides. The hydraulic cylinder is basically composed of cylinder cylinder and cylinder head, piston and piston rod, sealing device, buffer device and exhaust device. Buffer and exhaust devices depend on the specific application, other devices are necessary.
