Hydraulic Actuator with Two-Chamber Snubbers

The reciprocal actuator demonstrated in this model is equipped with snubbers (cushions) on both sides of the cylinder. The snubbers are implemented as two-chamber cushions separated by the cushioning bush as the piston comes close to the end of the stroke. The typical cycle consists of forward and reverse strokes from one extreme position to the other.
