Hydraulic Jack Model
Model Number: MTM-128
The Hydraulic Jack Model is a practical laboratory apparatus used to investigate hydraulic pressure, force multiplication, and the mechanical advantage produced by fluids in a closed system. Micro Technologies supplies the set with a main jack stand and plunger cylinder, four smaller cylinders, connecting hoses, valves, and related components for conducting different hydraulic experiments. The smaller cylinders can be connected to the main cylinder so that force applied at one point produces a lifting effect at another. Different loads can be placed on the main platform to compare input force with output lifting capacity. Its modular arrangement makes the apparatus suitable for physics laboratories, mechanical engineering laboratories, universities, colleges, research facilities, and institutional procurement.
Product Specification
The Hydraulic Jack Model is a practical fluid mechanics apparatus used to investigate Pascal’s law, hydraulic pressure transmission, force multiplication, and mechanical advantage. It demonstrates how a relatively small input force applied to a smaller piston can generate a considerably larger output force at a larger piston when pressure is transmitted through an enclosed fluid system.
The set incorporates a main jack stand with a large cylinder and plunger arrangement together with four smaller cylinders. Connecting hoses and valves allow the smaller cylinders to be linked with the main hydraulic assembly in different experimental configurations. This modular arrangement provides a convenient method for observing the relationship between piston area, applied force, hydraulic pressure, and resulting lifting force.
Micro Technologies supplies the Hydraulic Jack Model as a complete experimental setup for investigating practical hydraulic principles. A suitable load, such as a stack of books or another safe laboratory mass, can be positioned on the lifting platform. Force applied to one of the smaller cylinders is transmitted through the working fluid to the larger cylinder, causing the platform and load to rise. This clearly demonstrates the mechanical advantage available from hydraulic systems.
Different smaller cylinders can be connected individually to compare how piston dimensions affect the input force required to lift a given load. This allows the apparatus to support both qualitative demonstrations and comparative experimental measurements involving force ratios and hydraulic advantage.
The Hydraulic Jack Model can be used for investigations involving Pascal’s principle, hydraulic pressure, force transmission, piston-area ratios, mechanical advantage, and hydraulic lifting systems. Its reusable components, interchangeable cylinder arrangement, visible operation, and straightforward connections make it a valuable laboratory model for understanding the principles used in hydraulic jacks, presses, lifts, braking systems, and other fluid-power mechanisms.

FAQs
What is a Hydraulic Jack Model used for?
The Hydraulic Jack Model is used to investigate Pascal’s law and the transmission of pressure through an enclosed fluid system. It also demonstrates hydraulic force multiplication and mechanical advantage.
How does the Hydraulic Jack Model work?
Force applied to a smaller piston produces pressure within the connected hydraulic system. This pressure acts on the larger piston, producing a greater output force that can raise a load placed on the main platform.
How many small cylinders are supplied?
The standard experimental set includes four smaller cylinders. These can be connected to the main cylinder through the supplied hoses to investigate different hydraulic force conditions.
What experiments can be performed with this apparatus?
The apparatus supports experiments involving Pascal’s law, hydraulic pressure transmission, piston-area relationships, force multiplication, mechanical advantage, and the operating principle of hydraulic lifting mechanisms.
Why are different cylinder sizes useful?
Different piston sizes allow the relationship between piston area and force to be investigated. Comparing cylinders helps demonstrate why a small input force can generate a larger output force in a hydraulic system.
Can different loads be placed on the platform?
Yes. Suitable laboratory loads can be placed on the lifting platform within the safe operating capability of the apparatus. The applied load should remain stable and appropriate for the experimental setup.
Does the Hydraulic Jack Model require calibration?
The basic hydraulic model generally requires functional inspection rather than conventional calibration. Any force gauges, pressure instruments, or measuring accessories used for quantitative measurements should be verified separately.
How accurate are the experimental results?
Results depend on piston dimensions, system sealing, connection integrity, friction, working medium, and measurement technique. Secure connections and an air-free hydraulic circuit help improve consistency where liquid is used.
What maintenance does the apparatus require?
Hoses, valves, cylinders, pistons, and connections should be periodically inspected for leakage, damage, or excessive wear. Components should be kept clean and stored carefully after experiments.
Can replacement cylinders and hoses be supplied?
Yes. Compatible replacement cylinders, hoses, valves, and related accessories can be supplied according to the apparatus configuration and procurement requirements.
Can Hydraulic Jack Models be ordered in bulk?
Yes. Bulk quantities can be supplied for universities, colleges, physics and mechanical laboratories, research facilities, scientific equipment distributors, and institutional projects.
How is the apparatus packed for transportation?
The main jack assembly, cylinders, hoses, valves, and smaller accessories are securely packed to prevent movement and mechanical damage during transportation. Bulk and export packaging can also be arranged.
