The hydraulics are used in variety of machineries. The design of piston, piston rod has significant effect on strength and safety factor. The objective of current research is to investigate the effect of hydraulic piston geometric dimensions on its strength. The strength of piston is investigated using ANSYS FEA simulation package and design is optimized using Taguchi method. The equivalent stress, deformation and safety factor are determined for each design point. The optimized design of hydraulic piston is developed which has lower mass and improved safety factor. Both the optimization variables i.e., “ifr” and “ifh” has significant effect on safety factor of piston rod. The maximum safety factor obtained from the analysis and optimization is 2.44.
