Calculate the theoretical extension and retraction force of a double-acting cylinder.
F = P × A. Excludes friction, back pressure, acceleration and load safety factors.Theoretical free-air volume per full extension–retraction cycle and per minute.
Reference pressure: 1.01325 bar absolute; equal temperatures assumed. Excludes tubing, dead volume, leakage and pressure losses.Convert a bar value into kPa, MPa and psi.
1 bar = 100 kPa = 0.1 MPa.Moment of inertia of a uniform solid disc rotating about its central axis.
J = ½ × m × r². Applies only to the specified geometry and axis.These tools use basic physical relationships for preliminary assessment. Review technical documentation and share your application conditions for final series, capacity, safety and compatibility selection.
