Ideal cylinder advance force for this calculator. Multiply hydraulic or pneumatic pressure by the piston face area and the entered mechanical efficiency. This is an idealized force estimate. Back pressure, rod-side area, friction and dynamic loading require further analysis.
Use consistent units and the requested inputs.
Use the main result and breakdowns as a planning estimate.
For regulated topics, verify current local rules before acting.
Extension force F=p·10⁵·π(D·10⁻³)²/4·η/100/1000 (kN).
Inputs: pressure=160 bar; bore=80 mm; eff=92 %
Ideal screening estimate; not proof of safe operation or regulatory compliance.
Ideal incompressible quasi-steady actuator with specified mechanical efficiency; neglects pressure drop, leakage, friction variation, pump transients and buckling. Rated pressure/force, bore/rod clearance and actual pressure/flow must be independently verified.
