Cylinders

Cylinders are an important driving element in machine engineering. The application fields are highly diverse. Stationary, from special-purpose machine construction and bridge-raising cylinders to safety actuation functions in the power plant. Mobile, from crane-telescoping units to agricultural applications. Often under extreme conditions, high strains and long downtimes.

We set these requirements for ourselves and can draw on extensive experience and a wide range of products from hydraulic cylinders and electric cylinders. The customer-specific challenges are taken into account under the aspects of energy efficiency, weight optimisation, lifespan, maintenance and the overall economic viability of a system.

The combination of HYDAC hydraulic power units and KineSys drive solutions enables us to offer complete system solutions. On top of this, sensor systems can be integrated or attached to send information on the linear position, pressure or force to the controller. Combined with the controller and the corresponding drive system, the cylinders can be operated with open-loop or closed-loop control. A global service rounds out the extensive product range.
