What is the definition of cycle time? Is it a complete extention and retraction of the ram or extention or retraction?
 
Cycle time is down and back; i.e., a complete cycle.

Now how how a mfg calculates it might be a little different. For marketing purposes they might cheat a little to shave a half second or so off of the cycle times you and I observe. Sounds like horsepower or tonnage rating tricks, right? ;)
