What is piston pump?

A piston pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses a piston to move fluid through a cylinder. As the piston moves back and forth, it creates a vacuum that draws fluid in during the intake stroke and then forces it out during the discharge stroke. These pumps are known for their ability to handle high pressures and are commonly used in hydraulic systems, fuel injection, and various industrial applications. Their design allows for precise volume control and efficient fluid transfer.
