Solutions to Make Hydraulic Cylinder Move Faster

Take a tour of our VR factory.

Hydraulic cylinders are widely used in various industries such as construction machinery, medical equipment, etc., and their speed and accuracy are often crucial. In many cases, the need for a hydraulic cylinder to move faster is inevitable. In this article, we will explore several ways to make a hydraulic cylinder move faster.

Understand the Basics of Hydraulic Cylinder Operation

The basic principle of a hydraulic cylinder is to convert the pressure of a fluid into a linear motion. The motion of the hydraulic cylinder is dependent on the pressure, flow rate, and resistance of the system. In order to make a hydraulic cylinder move faster, it is important to understand the basics of its operation.

Increase the Pressure of the Fluid

The speed of a hydraulic cylinder is directly proportional to the pressure of the fluid. By increasing the pressure of the fluid, the speed of the hydraulic cylinder can be increased. This can be achieved by using a higher pressure fluid or by installing a pressure booster.

Increase the Flow Rate of the Fluid


The flow rate of the fluid is also an important factor in determining the speed of the hydraulic cylinder. Increasing the flow rate will result in an increase in the speed of the hydraulic cylinder. This can be achieved by increasing the size of the hydraulic cylinder, using a larger diameter line, or using a higher flow rate pump.

Reduce the Resistance of the System

The resistance of the system is also a factor in determining the speed of the hydraulic cylinder. The resistance is determined by the size and shape of the hydraulic cylinder, as well as the viscosity of the fluid. By reducing the resistance, the speed of the hydraulic cylinder can be increased. This can be achieved by reducing the size of the hydraulic cylinder, using a lower viscosity fluid, or using a more efficient design.

Confirm the Problem is Resolved and Take Preventive Measures

Once the necessary adjustments have been made to the system, it is important to confirm that the problem of making a hydraulic cylinder move faster has been resolved. This can be done by running the system and measuring the speed of the hydraulic cylinder. If the problem is not resolved, it is important to contact the technical department of Xinlan, and we will assist in handling it. Generally, the email will be processed within 24 hours.

In addition, it is important to take preventive measures to ensure that similar problems do not occur in the future. This can be done by regularly checking the system for any signs of wear and tear, as well as ensuring that the system is properly maintained.
