A basic hydraulic configuration consists of a single-acting cylinder, a pump
and a hose. It is really a small machine with the following components:
a) Flow generator = Pump. b) Flexible hose to transmit the oil flow from pump
to cylinder. c) Hydraulic cylinder, consisting of a chamber with inlet for the
oil and a piston to retain the oil and maintain the pressure that raises or
lowers as the oil changes within the chamber. The pressure is
created by resistance to flow. This resistance is the result
of a load. This hydraulic equipment can be used in
virtually all types of industry. From a basic pump
and cylinder set, you can build many
different system configurations by
adding components and
accessories.
