How to Choose Hydraulic Actuators: Hydraulic Cylinder vs Rotary Actuator
ASHUN FLUID POWER CO., LTD.
The key to selection is not "which is superior," but "which is suitable for the application." Incorrect selection can lead to seal wear and equipment downtime.
■ Hydraulic Cylinder (Linear Motion)
Outputs linear thrust and is optimal for long-stroke "push and pull."
(Application: Clamping, Lifting, etc.)
■ Rotary Actuator (Rotary Motion)
Directly outputs rotational torque from 90° to 360°. Space-saving and does not require a crank mechanism.
(Application: Arm flipping, Turning, etc.)
<!> Common Selection Mistakes
Simulating rotary motion with a linear cylinder and crank mechanism can cause abnormal wear on the oil seal, shortening its lifespan. A rotary actuator is essential for rotary applications.
Detailed comparison data and selection points are explained on our official blog. Please take a look!
