Piggy-back Hydraulic Cylinders
RAM Piggy-back hydraulic cylinders are a game changer providing optimized efficiency and flexibility. For applications that require a shorter retraction length, these cylinders can double the stroke available while maintaining consistent force for the full extension and retraction.
The robust design of RAM Piggy-back cylinders is very effective to provide maximum stroke in areas where space is constrained. They are built to withstand high-pressure conditions, extreme temperatures, to ensure long-term durability and reliability.
Piggy-back hydraulic cylinders are designed with several unique features that set them apart from traditional single-rod cylinders. These features include:
- Dual-cylinder Design - Piggy-back cylinders consist of two cylinders mounted, one on top of the other. The upper cylinder, the piggy-back, is welded to the lower cylinder, creating a compact and robust unit. This design allows for increased stroke length and stability.
- Space Efficiency - Piggy-back cylinders offer a space-saving advantage due to their compact design. OEMs can optimize space utilization by utilizing a vertical configuration, allowing for more efficient machinery layouts and improved efficiency.
- Precise Control and Adjustability - Piggy-back cylinders allow for fine control and adjustability, enabling OEMs to achieve specific movements and positioning. This level of control enhances operational efficiency and improves overall productivity.
