Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders – Application and Possibilities

When the normal working stroke of a Hydraulic Cylinder is not feasible for the task required, Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder is employed. A Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder is nested in stages where the effect of the piston is expanded over multiple barrels fitted perfectly in a small main sleeve.

As most Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders are fitted together within a sleeve, which is almost 20% of the actual working length, they provide better working stroke. Given their compact sizes, a Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder is used when a conventional single rod hydraulic cylinder is not feasible.

A Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder works on a similar principle to Single and Double acting Hydraulic Cylinders. With the main difference between the two types being, in Telescopic Cylinders, piston or barrel is nested in a compact housing along with other tubes which extend with the extension of the piston or the main barrel.

Manufacturing of Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder at Eurobalt Engineering

The manufacturing of Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders takes place within our premises. We manufacture all the components and then assemble it after all the parts have gone through a rigorous testing and screening process.

While we provide fully assembled Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders, our customers also have the luxury of ordering specific parts for their own assembly process. And here we look at how parts of the Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders are manufactured and later assembled.

The housing of Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders is the outer casings which store the nested barrels used during the expansion. For the manufacturing of Housing, we utilize machining to get the required circular shape.

Metal type and length specified by the clients are utilized when producing the Housing. Since it is the most essential part of a Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder, it is produced first in our factory. The Piston, or main tube, is also machined with the possibility of sintering when it comes to the normal piston.

The rods are made with certified metals and are machined to get the perfect shape. Holes are also made in the sleeves for the flow of oil or pressurized liquid.

For Hydraulic Head and Glands, production is done through the sintering process. Sintering helps to reduce the wastage of material. Then to finish off the process machining is used to remove kinks and some deformities. End Caps of Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders also undergo a similar process.

Assembly of Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders is also done in our factory. We can supply singular parts for the customers and also provide readymade cylinders. In the assembly process, quality control is done with vigor, and experienced technicians who have years of experience assembling Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders are involved in the process.

We can manufacture both Single and Double Acting Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders. Single Acting is a simpler process, but the quality control and attention to detail are not let up for a second.

Double Acting Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder is a complex piece of machinery that requires a lot of attention, as there are numerous moving and essential parts. Since our employees are experienced in the assembly of both versions of cylinders, we are best suited to satisfy your needs.

Application of Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder

For most equipment requiring Hydraulic Cylinders, a single rod system will do as they are less complex and extremely reliable. But there are certain situations where, depending on the application, one needs to switch to Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders.

With Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder, there are more strokes in a compact size, and this long-stroke combined with the size comes in handy when there is a small surface area to work within a vehicle or machinery.

While Single Rod Hydraulic Cylinders can be utilized in most cases, here are some applications of Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders.

Dump Truck
The most common use of Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder can be seen in a dump truck. When unloading, a dump truck needs to reach an angle of 60 degrees, and a normal cylinder will not be able to achieve that; or need an extremely long rod, which would be expensive, to finish the task.
Single Acting Hydraulic Cylinders can be used in dump trucks, as the vertical motion would allow for a smooth retraction. Double Acting Hydraulic Cylinders can be used when moving horizontally, and retraction force is needed to be used.
Construction Equipment
Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders can be fitted in construction equipment. A crane needed to move heavy duty loads can extend horizontally while a digging vehicle can reach better depths with the help of Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders.
Oil Rigs
Oil Rigs are known to use both Telescopic and Single Rod Hydraulic Cylinders. They achieve their task by employing both forming a hybrid. As offshore oil rigs are situated in small spaces, Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders are space savers while also giving better output than single rod cylinders.
Other Use
Lift system when cleaning windows utilize Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinders. After reaching a certain fixed height with the metal frame structure, the cylinders help to extend the top a little further.
