In this thesis we have improved the manufacturing of the bottom of a hydraulic cylinder, on a CNC machining centre, by using a rotary table to improve the process of manufacturing the bottom of the cylinder according to the existing manufacturing technology. In the experimental part, a comparison of the hydraulic bottom construction using the two manufacturing technologies was carried out. The existing hydraulic bottom technology uses a machine vise for the clamping preparation. The improved manufacturing technology uses a rotary table in addition to the machine vise. When comparing the two manufacturing technologies, we were interested in the overall manufacturing time, the quality of the machined surface and the load on the machine operator during the production of the hydraulic bottom. The findings present which manufacturing method is more appropriate and what are the advantages of the newly introduced technology.
