    log splitters and hydraulics

    Most splitters come with two stage pumps over here, Ed. Al, a constant pressure system shouldn't be constantly relieving pressure. Depending the system might not even require a pressure relief valve. At times of no load the the pump's output should be near 0, only allowing for the pump's...

    log splitters and hydraulics

    A load sensing/ constant pressure/ closed loop system would be the most efficient by far, but fairly expensive to implement.

    log splitters and hydraulics

    I don't know what pressure the system runs at. To get the rated tonnage it would need roughly 3600 psi, or 20% over "standard". There isn't any reason a system couldn't be designed to run at that pressure. I still think the easiest thing would be using a smaller cylinder until you need more...

    log splitters and hydraulics

    Assuming American units: Force= radius x radius x 3.14 x psi Hydraulic hp= gpm x psi / 1714 Gallons to stroke cylinder= radius x radius x 3.14 x stroke length/ 231 I just got out of my chair and into the bed, so I'll soon be back asleep, but the easiest way to get a faster cycle time is put...
