Telescopic cylinders also known as tipping cylinders are a type of hydraulic cylinder that consist of multiple nested stages or sections, which allow the cylinder to extend to a much greater length than a single-stage cylinder, all while maintaining a compact retracted size. They are often referred to as "telescoping cylinders" due to their ability to extend like a telescope, with each stage sliding into the next.
With competitive price and timely delivery, EXTENTOOL sincerely hope to be your supplier and partner.
Telescopic cylinders work by using hydraulic pressure to extend and retract multiple nested stages, or "sections," that slide within each other, much like a telescope. This unique design allows the cylinder to achieve a much longer stroke while remaining compact when retracted.
Telescopic cylinders’ combination of powerful hydraulic lifting, long reach, and compact design makes them indispensable in a wide range of industries, from construction to waste management to agriculture.
Here are some examples of how telescopic cylinders are used:
1. Construction and Heavy Machinery: Cranes: Telescopic cylinders are used in cranes to extend the boom, allowing the crane to lift materials at great heights and reach distant areas while keeping the equipment compact for transport.
2. Dump Trucks: Tipping and Unloading: Telescopic cylinders are used to lift the bed of dump trucks to dump materials like gravel, sand, or construction debris. The multiple stages provide the necessary reach while allowing the truck bed to be tipped at a high angle for efficient unloading.
3. Garbage Trucks: Compaction and Lifting: Telescopic cylinders are used in garbage trucks for compacting waste and lifting the back of the truck for tipping. Their ability to extend while saving space in the retracted position is ideal for waste collection equipment.
4. Agricultural Equipment: Tractors and Loaders: Telescopic cylinders are used in agricultural machinery, such as loaders, telehandlers, and backhoes, for lifting heavy loads, adjusting arms, and extending the reach to handle crops or materials.
5. Mining Equipment: Shovel and Excavator Arms: Telescopic cylinders are used in mining machines like shovels and excavators to extend and retract their digging arms, enabling them to reach deeper or higher areas while handling large volumes of material.
Example How a Telescopic Cylinder Powers the Tipping Mechanism
Telescopic cylinders offer several distinct advantages over standard single-stage cylinders, making them the preferred choice in many heavy-duty and space-constrained applications. Here are the key benefits:
Telescopic cylinders are ideal for applications that require a combination of long reach, heavy lifting, and compact storage, making them a superior choice in many industries over standard cylinders.
Commercial cylinders are designed for heavy-duty machinery, such as cranes, dump trucks, and waste management vehicles. These cylinders are built to endure harsh industrial environments and handle larger lifting capacities. Flowfit offers commercial telescopic cylinders with various mounting options, including:
