Leverage of Hydraulic Press Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Leverage of Hydraulic Lever = Length of Lever/Length of Load Arm of Hydraulic Lever
l_v = l/L_a
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Leverage of Hydraulic Lever - The Leverage of Hydraulic Lever value is the ratio of the output force to the input force of a hydraulic lever.
Length of Lever - (Measured in Meter) - Length of lever is defined as the perpendicular distance from a line of force to an axis through the fulcrum of hydraulic lever. These force is responsible for lifting the weights.
Length of Load Arm of Hydraulic Lever - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Load Arm of Hydraulic Lever is the length of the arm of an hydraulic press or an hydraulic lever onto which the output load is balanced.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length of Lever: 8.2 Meter --> 8.2 Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Load Arm of Hydraulic Lever: 5.85 Meter --> 5.85 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

l_v = l/L_a --> 8.2/5.85

Evaluating ... ...

l_v = 1.4017094017094

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.4017094017094 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.4017094017094 ≈ 1.401709 <-- Leverage of Hydraulic Lever

what is the use of leverage ?

A lever is used to gain mechanical advantage when lifting heavy weights for which hydraulic systems already have reduced the force which has to be applied by multiples. By using a lever in combination with a hydraulic press, the mechanical advantage gained is further optimized.

How powerful is a hydraulic press?

The Manual Hydraulic Press is a popular laboratory and industrial press as it is cost efficient, reliable, consistent and powerful. It operates at 15 or 25 tons of load, but can be converted to lower loads.

How to Calculate Leverage of Hydraulic Press?

Leverage of Hydraulic Press calculator uses Leverage of Hydraulic Lever = Length of Lever/Length of Load Arm of Hydraulic Lever to calculate the Leverage of Hydraulic Lever, Leverage of Hydraulic Press formula is defined as a measure of the mechanical advantage of a hydraulic press, which is the ratio of the vertical distance moved by the effort to the vertical distance moved by the load, and is used to calculate the force amplification in hydraulic systems. Leverage of Hydraulic Lever is denoted by l_v symbol.

How to calculate Leverage of Hydraulic Press using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Leverage of Hydraulic Press, enter Length of Lever (l) & Length of Load Arm of Hydraulic Lever (L_a) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Leverage of Hydraulic Press calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.401709 = 8.2/5.85.

FAQ

What is Leverage of Hydraulic Press?

Leverage of Hydraulic Press formula is defined as a measure of the mechanical advantage of a hydraulic press, which is the ratio of the vertical distance moved by the effort to the vertical distance moved by the load, and is used to calculate the force amplification in hydraulic systems and is represented as l_v = l/L_a or Leverage of Hydraulic Lever = Length of Lever/Length of Load Arm of Hydraulic Lever. Length of lever is defined as the perpendicular distance from a line of force to an axis through the fulcrum of hydraulic lever. These force is responsible for lifting the weights & Length of Load Arm of Hydraulic Lever is the length of the arm of an hydraulic press or an hydraulic lever onto which the output load is balanced.
