Hydraulic press brake idea

(1/1)

shipto:
I have a small number of rams and a powerpack and had planned to modify the rams like in the pic.
I may need a flow divider which are quite expensive but not a deal breaker but I am interested in opinions or other potential problems with this way of doing things.

BillTodd:
Obviously it's important that no fluid can pass from one cylinder to the other to maintain stability, so some kind of flow control valve will be essential .

I know my brother found using a motorised power pack difficult (hydraulic flow control like a digger),  so switched to an air powered pulse type , which he says is easier to control (perhaps slower)
