Free guide to selecting hydraulic flow control valves
A guide to selecting the right hydraulic flow control valve to optimise system performance and efficiency.
In order to control the speed of a hydraulic actuator (cylinder or motor) it is necessary to vary either its displacement or the actuator flow rate. For a standard hydraulic cylinder, varying its displacement (the amount of cylinder piston movement for a given volume of fluid) is not an option since this is determined by the dimensions of the cylinder when it is manufactured.
