Hydraulic cylinders are mechanical actuators that convert hydraulic energy into mechanical energy to produce linear movement. They consist of a cylinder barrel, a piston, a piston rod, seals, and end fittings. The hydraulic pressure is applied to the piston, which generates a force to move the piston rod. They are commonly used in construction equipment, manufacturing machinery, and in various industrial applications.
Types of hydraulic cylinders
● Tie-Rod Cylinders: general purpose applications, simple & economical.
● Welded Cylinders: heavy-duty applications, high strength & durability.
● Ram Cylinders: linear motion applications, large force & high speed.
● Telescopic Cylinders: material handling, long stroke length & high lifting capacities.
● Mill-Type Cylinders: steel mills, high-temperature applications, & harsh environments.
