FORCE CALCULATION FORMULA
Force (F) = Pressure (P) × Area (A)
F=P×A
CYLINDER PISTON AREA CALCULATION
D = piston diameter
A=π×(D/2)²
π (pi) ≈ 3.14
Pushing Force (Piston Extend)
Full piston surface is used
F=P×A
Pulling Force (Piston Retract)
Shaft area is subtracted
F=P×(Apiston-Amil)
Ashaft=π×(d/2)²

Hydraulic Force & Tonnage – FAQ

How do you convert pressure to tons of force?

Force (metric tons) = pressure (bar) × area (cm²) × 1.0197 / 1000. In US units, force (US tons) = pressure (psi) × area (in²) / 2000.

How many tons does a hydraulic press produce?

At 250 bar a 160 mm cylinder produces about 51 metric tons and a 200 mm cylinder about 80 metric tons.

What is 1 bar in psi?

1 bar = 14.504 psi = 0.1 MPa = 1.0197 kgf/cm².
