The Vega Cylinders hydraulic cylinder configurator available on Vega Cylinders allows users to configure industrial hydraulic cylinders online without manually studying technical catalogs or risking configuration mistakes. Thanks to the integrated configurator, users can quickly select bore size, stroke, mounting style, oil port position, rod end type, and cylinder version while instantly obtaining the correct product code, price, weight, delivery date, and downloadable 2D and 3D CAD files.
Vega Cylinders hydraulic cylinder configurator: practical V500CZ example
As an example, we will use the V500CZ high-speed compact hydraulic cylinder rated for 500 bar . The configurator guides the user step by step through the correct cylinder selection process while automatically preventing incompatible combinations.

The final configured code in our example is:
CZ040B0GHG#100
Each section of the code is automatically generated by the configurator:
- CZ = cylinder model
- 040 = 40 mm bore
- B = threaded body mounting
- 0 = without cushioning
- G = BSP threaded oil ports
- H = left-side oil port position
- G = female metric rod end
- = standard cylinder version
- 100 = 100 mm stroke
The V500CZ technical catalog explains the complete order code structure in detail , but the online configurator removes the need to manually interpret complex technical tables.
How to select the correct hydraulic cylinder without mistakes
The Vega Cylinders hydraulic cylinder configurator only displays compatible options during the selection process. This eliminates common configuration mistakes such as:
- unavailable strokes
- incompatible mounting and oil port combinations
- incorrect rod end versions
- non-manufacturable configurations
In our example, the following options are selected:
- Ø40 bore
- B mounting style
- BSP threaded oil ports
- H left-side oil ports
- G female metric rod end
- 100 mm stroke
The configurator also automatically displays cylinder force values. According to the V500CZ technical catalog, the Ø40 mm version can reach up to 6283 daN thrust force at 500 bar .
Integrated industrial ecommerce: instant price, weight, and delivery date
One of the main advantages of the Vega Cylinders hydraulic cylinder configurator is the complete integration with industrial ecommerce functionality.
During configuration, the system automatically updates:
- net price
- cylinder weight
- expected shipping date
- purchasable quantity
- complete product code
In our example, the configurator displays:
- net price €296
- weight 6 kg
- expected shipping from 21/05/2026
This allows design engineers, purchasing departments, and mold makers to instantly obtain commercial information without waiting for manual quotations.
Integrated 2D and 3D CAD generator
The Vega Cylinders hydraulic cylinder configurator also includes an integrated automatic CAD generator.
After completing the V500CZ configuration, the system automatically generates:
- STEP
- IGES
- Parasolid
- SAT
- DWG
- DXF
- technical PDF
- online 3D preview
The CAD model updates automatically according to the selected configuration:
- stroke
- oil port position
- rod end style
- mounting type
- actual dimensions
This significantly reduces design time and allows engineering departments to immediately insert the hydraulic cylinder into molds, machines, or assemblies.
The Vega Cylinders configurator works for all product ranges
The same system used for the V500CZ is available for:
- compact hydraulic cylinders
- block cylinders
- high-pressure cylinders
- injection mold cylinders
- SpeedPorts systems
- rod accessories
- special hydraulic cylinder versions
Thanks to the Vega Cylinders hydraulic cylinder configurator, users can configure complex hydraulic products quickly, accurately, and safely while maintaining the high technical standards required in industrial high-pressure applications.
