This paper concerns on the simulation-based proper design method for the efficient production of hydraulic cylinders using CAE techniques which are widely used in various industries. Simulation-based design techniques are actively being used to reduce time and cost for product design in the industries. However, the hydraulic cylinder cannot be designed with general simulation-based design method, because it is designed and manufactured by the standard regulations such as ISO and KS. To tackle this problem, we developed CAEbased proper design method that combines simulation-based design optimization with a production design method using commercial production database according to standard rules. This technology allows designers to efficiently select the best commercial products of the equipment and components required for the system. The developed technology was verified by applying it to the design study of the lifting pump mounting system in deep-seabed integrated mining system developed in 2015.
