Pneumatic Cylinder !

IrvinShepherd

Hi :)

What size of double act pneumatic cylinder I need to lift 200 Lbs. of weight, if I have got 10 bars air compressor!

All I need for a short stroke 1-3" maximum!

Any special formula or calculations for that!

Thank you,

Force = Pressure X Area

Now I am in final year of engineering. I wanted to do a project on air compressed vehicle ( want to run the vehicle using pneumatic energy ). Any suggestions would be more helpful to me. Advance thanks to whom are ready to share their views :)

Find out the area of piston to decide the cylinder size..
Area = Force / Pressure = 200/ 145 = 1.379 sq. inch

You need a pneumatic cylinder with a piston dia of 1.5 inch considering the FOS.

Your stroke depends on the height you wanna lift your mass.

Hope it will help
