This video walks through the complete testing procedure of a magnetic compact hydraulic cylinder, beginning with precise measurements of the piston rod length in both the fully extended and fully retracted positions. By calculating the difference between these two values, the actual stroke is determined and verified against the rated specification, ensuring dimensional accuracy. The test then moves on to validate the magnetic sensing capability: an external magnetic switch is placed along the cylinder body, and the built-in magnet inside the piston reliably activates the switch at the designated position, proving that the cylinder can send non-contact position feedback to an external controller without mechanical wear or complicated wiring.
This validation is especially critical in compact automation systems, tooling fixtures, and precision machinery where space is tight and traditional limit switches are impractical or unreliable. The magnetic compact hydraulic cylinder successfully delivers both stroke precision and stable integrated sensing in a slim footprint, solving the common challenge of fitting reliable position feedback into constrained installations. This demonstration is highly relevant for procurement professionals, design engineers, and technical buyers working in industries such as mold manufacturing, robotic grippers, clamping equipment, and custom automation.
