Product Description
Integrated Valve Hydraulic Cylinders
A cylinder with valve functions can be used in a variety of areas where there is a need for increased safety and performance. The valve functions can be built into the cylinder, or mounted directly on the cylinder to ensure that a load that is lifted does not fall freely if a hose breaks. Common types of valves are known as safety valves, check valves and load-holding valves.
Safety, Performance, and Aesthetics with Custom Integrated Valve Hydraulic Cylinders
When your application requires counterbalance or pilot-operated check valves, the ideal location is directly mounted to the cylinder because it continues to provide load holding protection even when a hose fails. From basic single or dual counterbalance valves to complex integrated circuits, our team will design your cylinders with compact valve manifolds.
Application
1. Boom Lift
Sometimes called “the spider,” boom lifts are characterized by their 4 legs and bucket on the end. They’re mounted to a vehicle with durable tires, making it an excellent option for uneven or rough terrain. Boom lifts are among the most popular aerial work platforms, as they’re incredibly durable and versatile.
The spider consists of a boom lift that has a bucket at the end of the boom where workers stand to access a work area. It was originally designed for orchards and allowed workers to easily pick fruit that was high up in trees. Nowadays, the lift is frequently used for overhead line maintenance, sprucing up tall trees, and even assisting firefighters in areas that are difficult to access.
Maintenance and inspections are important to ensure boom lifts and similar types of construction lifts run properly. CMO’s aerial lift certification includes some helpful tips for adhering to a sensible maintenance schedule.
2. Articulated Boom Lift
Also known as a knuckle lift, articulated boom lifts feature extended arms that allow workers to reach up and over obstacles. The boom lift uses a turntable base to swivel around 360 degrees. This makes it the best option for maintenance work and other jobs with limited access.
Unlike a scissor lift, an articulated boom lift can be used for building repair jobs, including piping. An articulated boom lift can also be used on uneven terrain.
Workers can undergo articulated boom lift training as part of an aerial platform safety program. That way, workers can learn how to safely use an articulated boom lift during maintenance and building repair jobs.
3. Telescopic Boom Lift
For workers who require maximum reach at heights, a telescopic boom lift is ideal. This type of AWP is a terrific option for window washers, electricians, and other workers who need to access areas that are directly above or parallel to them.
Telescopic MEWs are versatile enough to handle work areas directly above or at an angle from the base of the lift. The operator stands in a mobile cockpit to control and customize the lift’s movements.
Before workers begin using a telescopic boom lift, they must complete a safety training program. Telescopic boom lift safety is a key tenet of worker training for aerial lifts, and a safety training program teaches workers how to minimize risk when they use this type of aerial platform.
4. Scissor Lift
A scissor lift is frequently used for indoor work. The lift has a set of supports in a crisscross pattern and offers limited reach in comparison to telescopic and articulated boom lifts.
Typically, scissor lifts only move vertically. A scissor lift’s upward motion is achieved by the application of pressure to the outside of its lowest set of supports, elongating the crossing pattern, and propelling the work platform vertically.
Scissor lifts are commonly used for basic maintenance work and painting. Rough terrain scissor lifts are also available for outdoor work on uneven terrain.
While most people think of scissor lifts as a type of construction lift or another kind of elevated work platform, they’re actually defined by OSHA as a type of scaffolding, since the operator/work platform doesn’t extend horizontally away from the base. Even though scissor lifts aren’t technically aerial lifts, they’re still more versatile and useful than traditional scaffolding.
Meanwhile, scissor lift safety training is available. With this training, workers can learn how to safely move a scissor lift up and down, operate the lift on rough terrain, and more.
5. Aerial Platform

How does a boom cylinder handle variations in load capacity and weight?
A boom cylinder is designed to handle variations in load capacity and weight in heavy machinery. Here’s a detailed explanation:
When a machinery equipped with a boom cylinder is used for different tasks, the load capacity and weight requirements may vary. The boom cylinder is designed to accommodate these variations and ensure optimal performance. Here are the key factors that contribute to how a boom cylinder handles load capacity and weight variations:
- Force Generation: The boom cylinder generates the necessary force to move the boom, arm, or attachment of the machinery. The force generated by the cylinder can be adjusted based on the load capacity and weight requirements. By controlling the hydraulic pressure and flow rate, the operator can regulate the force exerted by the cylinder, allowing it to handle both lighter and heavier loads.
- Adjustable Stroke Length: Boom cylinders often have an adjustable stroke length, which is the distance the piston can travel within the cylinder. By adjusting the stroke length, the cylinder can adapt to different load capacities and weight distributions. For heavier loads, a longer stroke may be required to provide the necessary extension or retraction of the boom. Conversely, for lighter loads, a shorter stroke may be sufficient, optimizing the cylinder’s efficiency.
- Pressure Compensation: Some boom cylinders are equipped with pressure compensation mechanisms. These mechanisms automatically adjust the hydraulic pressure within the cylinder to compensate for variations in load capacity and weight. For example, as the load on the boom increases, the pressure compensation mechanism increases the hydraulic pressure, ensuring consistent force and control throughout the operation.
- Integration with Load Sensing Systems: Boom cylinders can be integrated with load sensing systems that provide real-time feedback on the load capacity and weight. Load sensing systems use sensors to measure the force exerted on the boom or attachment and transmit this information to the hydraulic control system. The hydraulic control system can then adjust the pressure and flow rate to match the load requirements, optimizing the cylinder’s performance.
- Multi-Stage Cylinders: In some cases, machinery may be equipped with multi-stage boom cylinders. These cylinders have multiple sections or stages that can be extended or retracted independently. Each stage may have different dimensions and force capabilities. By adjusting the extension or retraction of each stage, the cylinder can adapt to varying load capacities and weight distributions, providing precise control and handling.
By incorporating these design features and mechanisms, a boom cylinder can effectively handle variations in load capacity and weight. This allows the machinery to perform a wide range of tasks with different load requirements, providing versatility and efficiency in industries such as construction, mining, material handling, and more.

Can you explain the role of hydraulic fluid in a boom cylinder?
Hydraulic fluid plays a crucial role in the operation of a boom cylinder in heavy machinery. Here’s a detailed explanation of its role:
- Transmission of Power: Hydraulic fluid is the medium through which power is transmitted in a boom cylinder. When hydraulic fluid is supplied under pressure to one side of the cylinder, it exerts force on the piston, causing it to move. This movement is then transferred to the boom, enabling its extension, retraction, lifting, or lowering. The ability of hydraulic fluid to transmit power efficiently allows for smooth and controlled operation of the boom cylinder.
- Force Generation: Hydraulic fluid is responsible for generating the force required to move the boom. The pressure applied to the hydraulic fluid creates a force that acts on the piston, creating a pushing or pulling action. This force is then transmitted to the boom through the piston and rod, allowing for the desired movement. The force generated by the hydraulic fluid depends on the pressure applied and the effective area of the piston.
- Control of Movement: Hydraulic fluid enables precise control of the boom cylinder’s movement. By regulating the flow and pressure of the hydraulic fluid, operators can control the speed, direction, and extent of the boom’s extension, retraction, lifting, or lowering. This control allows for accurate positioning of the boom, precise load handling, and safe operation of the heavy machinery.
- Heat Dissipation: Hydraulic fluid also plays a role in dissipating heat generated during the operation of the boom cylinder. As hydraulic fluid flows through the system, it absorbs heat from the hydraulic components and transfers it to the reservoir or other heat dissipation mechanisms. Adequate heat dissipation prevents the hydraulic fluid from overheating, which could lead to a loss of performance or damage to the components.
- Lubrication and Seal Protection: Hydraulic fluid provides lubrication to the moving components within the boom cylinder, such as the piston, rod, and seals. This lubrication minimizes friction and wear, ensuring smooth and efficient operation of the cylinder. Additionally, hydraulic fluid helps protect the seals from drying out or being damaged by contaminants, maintaining the integrity of the cylinder and preventing fluid leakage.
- System Stability and Safety: The proper selection and maintenance of hydraulic fluid contribute to the stability and safety of the boom cylinder system. Using the recommended hydraulic fluid with the appropriate viscosity and additives ensures optimal performance and protects the system from wear, corrosion, and fluid breakdown. Regular monitoring and maintenance of the hydraulic fluid help identify potential issues, such as contamination or degradation, and prevent system failures or malfunctions.
In summary, hydraulic fluid plays a vital role in a boom cylinder by transmitting power, generating force, controlling movement, dissipating heat, providing lubrication and seal protection, and contributing to system stability and safety. Its properties and effective utilization are essential for the efficient and reliable operation of the boom cylinder in heavy machinery.
