More Information about Compressed Air Booster Cylinders
Booster cylinders use shop compressed air to power an air-over-oil system used in punching, notching, and stamping applications. For efficiency, most booster cylinders use a low pressure (LP) advance stroke to advance the tool towards the work piece. Once the tool is staged at the advanced position, the high pressure (HP) power stroke is started. The advancing air cylinder piston drives the much smaller diameter piston of the hydraulic ram. The ratio between the area of the air cylinder piston and the area of the hydraulic ram is the factor by which the oil pressure is increased.
