How Does a Hydraulic Actuator Work?
The KOR-LOK® Side Action System sets itself apart from other Hydraulic Core Pull and Locking cylinders by preloading cores to high forces.
The KOR-LOK® Side Action System sets itself apart from other Hydraulic Core Pull and Locking cylinders by preloading cores to high forces.
Hydraulic cylinders are commonly used on injection molds to actuate movable core. When considering “How to Size” a hydraulic cylinder for moving the core or preloading the core, PFA recommends to review three positions – initial breakaway, movement during stroke, and end position. After determining the limiting condition, a proper size may be determined. PFA’s […]
