    Hydraulic Lift
AI Thread Summary
For a hydraulic scissor lift using syringes, a combination of 3cc syringes for actuation and a 50cc syringe for pumping is recommended for tabletop models. Larger scales can utilize a 50cc actuator, which can lift over 130 lbs effectively. The assembly should be designed within a 300 mm cube, excluding the input, and must lift a platform up to 1.2 meters. The weight of the lift is not a concern as it is intended to be lightweight. Proper sizing and configuration of the syringes are crucial for achieving maximum displacement and functionality.

I m making a hydraulic lift using syringes (piston and cylinder mechanism). can anyone suggest the combination of syringes for maximum displacement. will the scissor lift work properly?

Welcome to PF, Sam
You might have to be a bit more specific about your question. For one thing, you haven't mentioned the scale of this thing.
If I were to build one, on a table-top device, I'd go with 3cc units for the activators and a 50cc to pump them up. That's just me, though; I love overkill.
For bigger scale, I don't know. From experience having played with these things, I can say for certain that a 50cc used as an actuator can lift over 130 lbs.. (I know because I was the load.)
 
The assembly should be kept in a cube of 300 mm side (excluding input). it should have to lift a platform up to 1.2 m. Weight doesn't matters for me as its a light weight.
 

Thread 'A practical way to vaporize fuel for high MPG?'

Here's a video by “driving 4 answers” who seems to me to be well versed on the details of Internal Combustion engines. The video does cover something that's a bit shrouded in 'conspiracy theory', and he touches on that, but of course for phys.org, I'm only interested in the actual science involved. He analyzes the claim of achieving 100 mpg with a 427 cubic inch V8 1970 Ford Galaxy in 1977. Only the fuel supply system was modified. I was surprised that he feels the claim could have been...
