A hydraulically or pneumatically powered actuating cylinder with provisions for directional control (positioning) in direct relation with a primary control of comparatively low level force. The primary control input to the servocylinder may be mechanical and/or electrical.
Additional Information for Servocylinder
A servocylinder, also known as a hydraulic servo cylinder or hydraulic actuator, is a type of mechanical device that converts hydraulic power into linear motion. It is commonly used in various applications where precise control of force, position, or velocity is required.
A servocylinder typically consists of a cylinder, a piston, and a hydraulic system. The cylinder houses the piston, which is connected to a rod or other mechanism that performs the desired linear motion. The hydraulic system, usually powered by a hydraulic pump, supplies pressurized fluid to the cylinder, which in turn moves the piston and generates the desired force or motion.
Servocylinders are widely used in industrial machinery, construction equipment, aerospace systems, and other applications where precise and powerful actuation is needed. They are often used in conjunction with control systems, such as servo valves or proportional valves, to achieve accurate and responsive control over the motion or force generated by the cylinder.
Overall, servocylinders play a crucial role in many industries by providing reliable and precise actuation capabilities, allowing for efficient and controlled movement in various applications.
