Production of high tonnage construction hydraulic cylinders for heavy lifting

Hydraulic cylinders capable of lifting 1,000 tons at a maximum pressure of 700 bar, hydraulic jacks with strokes of up to 5 meters, for the handling of large structures: these are just some of the projects that FPT develops and manufactures at its Italian plant.

HIGH-TONNAGE HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS: MANUFACTURE OF SPECIAL CYLINDERS – CUSTOM-MADE
High-tonnage hydraulic cylinders are one of FPT’s main products and can be manufactured to customer specifications. With the same thrust area and 700 bar pressure, it is possible to achieve very compact products capable of developing extremely high forces. Design accuracy, high-precision machining, the right choice of materials, and heat and surface treatments are fundamental elements for achieving a product of the highest quality.

HIGH-TONNAGE HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS: TYPES
Hydraulic cylinders for heavy lifting can be designed and manufactured with various features:
– return under load
– return under load with mechanical locking ring – to ensure safe operation
– double-acting
– compact double-acting
– high-tonnage bored cylinders

HIGH-CAPACITY HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS: MATERIALS AND TREATMENTS
Additionally, they can be manufactured with various special treatments to better resist corrosion, such as QPQ and NITOX versions, in stainless steel, and with the capacity to handle significant

HIGH-CAPACITY HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS: MATERIALS AND TREATMENTS
They can also be manufactured with various special treatments to enhance corrosion resistance, such as QPQ and NITOX versions, in stainless steel, and with the capacity to handle heavy loads and lateral stresses.

FPT carries out projects worldwide, wherever there is a need to handle heavy loads, such as in the infrastructure sector for the handling or relocation of bridges, viaducts, and concrete or steel structures, as well as in the energy, oil & gas, offshore, industrial, and heavy transport sectors.
