FPT – Fluid Power Technology is proud to be a partner in the construction of the high-speed railway in Florance  – PassanteAVFirenze station, a strategic project for Italian railway mobility.

Thanks to the supply of an important batch of 156 hydraulic cylinders with a maximum capacity of 1000 tons – high tonnage cylinders.
FPT hydraulic cylinders will be used for the key pushing operations necessary to allow excavation to progress on the construction site: the Belfiore Station involves the construction of a structure, approximately 450 meters long and 50 meters wide, which will have an extension of approximately 45 thousand square meters and will be located up to 25 meters below street level.

High tonnage cylinders realized were custom made and with locking collar and dedicated tilting saddle.

We want to thank for the collaboration ConsorzioFlorentia, formed by Impresa Pizzarotti& C. S.p.A. and Saipem, to whom RFI Rete FerroviariaItaliana and Italferr S.p.A. have entrusted the construction of the new Belfiore AV Station and all the infrastructural connection works.
