How to make two hydraulic cylinders work together?

Unlike systems that use mechanical connections to synchronize cylinders, position sensing cylinders use electronic feedback to tell the relevant valves when to open and close. All sensors in the system communicate with each other, and the cylinders always know where they are relative to the others. If one cylinder moves forward, the valve closes and automatically synchronizes it.

Hydraulic cylinder synchronization refers to the extension or retraction of multiple cylinders at the same speed and force at the same time. The core lies in the uniform distribution of hydraulic oil and the precise control of pressure. The realization of synchronous operation depends on the following key factors:
Fluid dynamics: The basic principle of the hydraulic system is to use the incompressibility of the liquid to convert pressure into power, and to achieve synchronous movement of the cylinders by controlling the direction and flow of the fluid flow.
Load balancing: When multiple hydraulic cylinders share the load, they should ensure that each cylinder bears the same load to avoid asynchronous operation due to uneven load.
Real-time feedback: Through sensors and control systems, the movement status of each cylinder is monitored in real time, and adjustments are made as needed to maintain synchronization.

The specific operation will vary depending on the specifications and configuration of the position sensing cylinder. For example, a system consisting of re-phasing hydraulic cylinders will operate differently than a series of standard double-acting welding rod cylinders.
