[QUOTE="karan_s, post: 6152959, member: 659188"] That makes sense. I also did the calculation shown below to find the force. Was thinking I could get the required supply pressure from this and then choose a tank with appropriate pressure. Is this also incorrect? f = 1500/60 = 25 Frequency in revolutions per second w = f*2*pi = 157 Angular frequency in radians per second x = 0.06 Stroke in meters a = w^2*(x/2) = 739.47 Acceleration in meters per sec^2 M = 0.1 Mass of piston in kilograms F = Ma = 73.947 Force in Newtons g = 9.8 Acceleration due to gravity P = F*g = 725.420 Equivalent Force [/QUOTE]
