Pneumatic Cylinder Force Calculator
Accurately Calculate Cylinder Force for Your Application
Understanding the force exerted by a pneumatic cylinder is crucial for selecting the appropriate cylinder size, ensuring efficient operation, and achieving optimal performance. Our Pneumatic Cylinder Force Calculator helps you determine the force based on cylinder pressure, diameter, and type with ease.
How to use:
​
-
Select Cylinder Type: Choose Single-acting or Double-acting.
-
Select Pressure Unit: Choose Pascals (Pa) or Pounds per Square Inch (psi).
-
Enter Cylinder Pressure (P): Input the pressure. If in psi, it converts to Pascals.
-
Enter Cylinder Diameter (D): Provide the diameter in millimeters.
-
Enter Rod Diameter (d) (Double-Acting Only): Input the rod diameter in millimeters.
-
Calculate Force: Press "Calculate Force" to see the result in Newtons (N).
-
Reset: Use "Reset" to clear inputs and start over.
