The choice between 70 bar hydraulic cylinders and 210 bar depends on various technical factors related to the application, load, and operating conditions.
Nuova Emmebi Cilindri designs and manufactures custom hydraulic cylinders, offering solutions for both standard and high-pressure applications.
In this guide, we analyze the main differences between the two types to help you choose the most suitable cylinder.
Difference between 70 bar and 210 bar hydraulic cylinders
70 bar hydraulic cylinders
70 bar cylinders are suitable for applications requiring:
- precise movement
- operating speed
- medium loads
- continuous but light use
Typically used in:
- machine tools
- industrial automation
- handling systems
- lightweight systems
210 bar hydraulic cylinders
The 210 bar cylinders are designed for high-intensity applications, where the following are required:
- high forces
- heavy load resistance
- reliability in harsh conditions
- long service life
Used in:
- hydraulic presses
- steel plants
- earthmoving machinery
- heavy industrial plants
Comparison table
| Feature | 70 bar | 210 bars |
|---|---|---|
| Operating pressure | Low / medium | High |
| Force Developed | Medium | High |
| Applications | Automation, machine tools | Presses, heavy industry |
| Structure | Lighter | More robust |
| Use | Continuous Standard | Heavy / intensive |
How to choose the right hydraulic cylinder
The choice depends on:
1. Load to be handled
- Medium loads → 70 bar
- Heavy loads → 210 bar
2. Application Type
- Automation → 70 bar
- Presses / Heavy Industry → 210 bar
3. Operating Conditions
- Standard use → 70 bar
- Severe conditions → 210 bar
