Standard hydraulic solutions are great for the most part. We even offer plenty of these in our shop, yet sometimes only a custom-made piece will offer you the precision, reliability, and quality that you need. The good news is that here are FluidKraft our expert engineers can help you with every step on the journey of creating a custom hydraulic fabrication including ideation, design and engineering. Indeed, you can find out all about the custom-made hydraulic cylinders we can offer your business in the post below. Read on to find out more.
What Are Custom Hydraulic Cylinders?
Do you have exceptional and distinctive hydraulic cylinder needs? Do you need an increased lifting capacity or a hydraulic cylinder that is optimised to operate in a very specific and challenging environment? Then you need a custom-built hydraulic cylinder built specifically for your needs.
The great thing about choosing a custom cylinder over an off-the-shelf one is that there is a wide range of factors that can be customised to suit your specific needs and applications. For example, we can add coatings and finishes to extend the life of your cylinder and improve durability. We can use specially selected materials for use in challenging environments and temperatures, and we can even change the length and width of the diameter of the piston rods to make sure they perform optimally for your needs.
What Are The Benefits Of Choosing Custom Hydraulic Cylinders?
There are many benefits to choosing custom-made hydraulic cylinders, and a few things you should consider before going down this route. Find out what they are in the section below.
Pros of Custom Hydraulic Cylinders
Customisation
The great thing about choosing a custom cylinder over an off-the-shelf one is that there is a wide range of factors that can be customised to suit your specific needs and applications. For example, we can add coatings and finishes to extend the life of your cylinder and improve durability. We can use specially selected materials for use in challenging environments and temperatures, and we can even change the length and width of the diameter of the piston rods to make sure they perform optimally for your needs.
Reliability
By choosing a custom hydraulic cylinder you can increase the reliability and durability of your equipment. This is because by making them custom you can ensure they are built to withstand extreme temperatures or pressure and perform their function over and over
Safety and Third-Party Approval
Another major benefit of choosing custom hydraulic cylinders is that they are much more likely to be safer, and so get approval by third parties such as contract holders or insurance providers. This is because they are designed by experts for a specific use and so minimise the risk of faults or failures.
Cons of custom-made hydraulic cylinders
While there are many positive elements to choosing custom hydraulic cylinders, there are some things you will also need to consider carefully before choosing this route.
Expense
The first of these is cost because there is so much more involved in the process of, ideating, designing, and manufacturing custom-made hydraulic cylinders than choosing one off-the-shelf. However, it’s also worth noting that because custom models are built for specific needs they are likely to last longer, and need fewer repairs and so save money over the long term.
Expertise
Another important aspect of custom hydraulic cylinders that you must think about is that they cannot be designed and made by just anyone. Indeed, because the process involved is complex, and specialist you’ll need to find a provider that offers an experienced and expert team. The good news is that you can find such a team at FluidKraft!
