Customized hydraulic cylinders can be used for specific industrial tasks. Thanks to the work of its design office and its production capabilities, Douce-Hydro can supply its customers with hydraulic cylinders tailored to their specifications.
Compliant, quality parts
Douce-Hydro’s customized hydraulic cylinders are designed to meet specific objectives. This customization work is not limited to generic criteria such as product shape or size. This customization work is not limited to generic criteria such as force or stroke, but also to specific interfaces, hydraulic functions, rod coatings or paints.
Douce-Hydro places attention to detail at the heart of its industrial strategy. This value is reflected in the methods used to manufacture bespoke cylinders. Each component is carefully selected and manufactured using specifically chosen materials. The result is a product of the utmost efficiency and durability (a parallel with coatings).
Douce-Hydro uses state-of-the-art technology to analyze specific customer requirements and evaluate complex parameters such as load capacity, required pressure, required stroke and other crucial specifications. Douce-Hydro’s numerically controlled (CNC) machinery and the analysis tools used by its design office engineers provide the techniques and skills needed to produce millimetre-accurate products. Together, these resources eliminate any risk of inaccuracy in the design of custom-made cylinders. They enable Douce-Hydro to design and manufacture small, medium and large cylinders:
- Single-acting plunger cylinders
- Double-acting cylinders
- Double-rod cylinders with central passage
- Submerged cylinders
- Long-stroke cylinders
- Cylinders for heavy-duty applications
- Cylinders for extreme environmental conditions
- All-stainless steel cylinders
- SE or DE telescopic cylinders with constant speed and constant force
- Free-standing cylinders
- Pneumatic cylinders for special applications (medium & large capacity)
Transparency is another of the company’s cardinal values: throughout the manufacturing process, the project owner is assured that the cylinder is produced according to the established plans, and has all the qualities and characteristics of a genuinely made-to-measure product.
Customized cylinders to suit your needs
Custom hydraulic cylinders offer many advantages:
Ordering a custom-built cylinder from Douce-Hydro offers future users a guarantee of quality that surpasses that of a standard product. They also have the assurance of a part perfectly adapted to their requirements and the reality of their needs.
Cylinder stroke is a fundamental element that can be tailored to the specific requirements of the application. Douce-Hydro is able to design custom cylinders with strokes of up to 27 meters. In applications requiring precise motion control, stroke length must be adapted with extreme precision.
The variety of mounting configurations and installation options are other criteria taken into account when designing customized cylinders. Other operational characteristics are also taken into account, such as travel speed and fluidity control.
Douce-Hydro’s technical expertise is based on a highly qualified and experienced team: a design office staffed by specialists in hydraulic engineering is involved from the moment we examine your custom-built cylinder project.
