What is the piston driver?
The piston driver, as well as all drivers, is a device that transforms the raw energy into motion. In general, the driver is connected to the piston contained inside the cover. Something that causes pressure, enters the cover and forces to move the piston, which moves the drive and whether it is connected. With the right design, this movement can continue through a number of steps and parts, resulting in a large amount of movement generated by a small change in the driver itself. In most cases, these devices are powered by pneumatic, hydraulic or combustion systems.
As mentioned above, the design of the piston driver is quite simple. Most of them consist of only a few parts - piston, cover and arm arm - along with two valves that leave the power source in and out. The most complex part of the system is usually a method used to protect the piston from the energy source.
No matter what the piston moves, the inside of the cover must be as close as possible to be as airtight to beo possible to get the greatest return on energy use. Most of these systems use a piston cylinder that forms one end. Because the energy in the cover is designed to cause pressure rupture, even the smallest leaks around the valves or piston may cause lack of energy. Some attachments must also protect the interior of the system from risks, such as extreme heat or water damage.
The size of the piston controller is in direct proportion to the amount of energy needed to move it and the amount of movement it can create. A large wand of pistons requires great strength while smaller. A small piston generates a small amount of movement and generates a lot. Although this may seem obvious, it comes into play when the system uses a process that can multiply performance, which is a practice of common vydraulic systems.
Many types of piston controls use hydraulic systems for this reason. Small pistons are connected to a larger tank containing a large piston. Small pistons activate and move a relatively small amountWater and use a small amount of energy. The cumulative effect of this movement creates a huge increase in pressure and activates a large piston. In this case, several drives act in accordance to create a power source used by a large piston driver.
