Merlin Hydraulics

e pressurised fluid enters the rod end of the cylinder, it retracts the piston in the inward direction. They most commonly use oil to generate the force required for operation. It is made up of a strong casing that consists of a cylinder barrel and a piston operated by the piston rod. The hydraulic cylinders are developed in a wide range of customisation options and depending on the type of construction they can be divided into specific types. Hydraulic cylinders find a plethora of applications in heavy machinery, construction equipment, manufacturing and many other general engineering verticals. They are also used in critical applications like oil rigs, wind turbines, hydro power plants, power generation. They are also available in various mounting types depending on the type of application. This level of customisation and applications makes the hydraulic cylinder one of the most preferred choice for engineering applications and ease of reproducibility makes it suited for mass production. We assist in helping you with the selection for choosing the right match of hydraulic cylinder for your application. It involves a range of operating pressures, bore sizes, rod diameters, mounting, stroke, working conditions and end connections. 1. NFPA Tie-rod type a. Description: The NFPA tie-rod range of cylinders are a standard range of tie-rod cylinders that are based on ISO 6020-2. They are widely known to improve the performance efficiency of the hydraulic system and provide high standards of quality and safety. They find applications in almost all major engineering verticals like automobiles, construction equipment, machine tools, general manufacturing, plastic and rubber moulding, food processing industries etc. The NFPA tie-rod cylinder is categorised based on its mounting type, port style and other standard operating features. Based on these characteristics, a standard set of specifications can be generated for the cylinder. We also work closely to know the end application of the customer, were we can customise the cylinder to best suit the application. This helps us provide a wider range of cylinder specifications and be associated with a wider array of industrial applications. The NFPA tie rod cylinders are available in various types, based on their sizes, the extremity of their application and basic customer requirement. The tie rod cylinders are usually classified as medium duty and heavy duty tie rod cylinders. We work in close connection with our customers to study their requirement and provide them with the best possible combination of the tie rod cylinder to help them have maximum output performance We also provide complete design support and assistance for replacement of existing cylinders to enable our customers have cost saving benefits. We manufacture custom developed tie rod cylinder based on global standards along with best in class components to provide complete value addition as well as reduce maintenance downtime. b. Product Features i. High precision machined, high strength steel pistons with hard chrome plating to ensure anti-corrosion ii. Heavy duty, high quality bearings and seals to ensure maximum life iii. Bronze filled PTFE Piston and rod seals have very low coefficient of friction and anti-extrusion characteristics that ensure perfect sealing with frictionless smooth movement iv. The cartridge-type sealing concept for piston rods enables easy maintenance and replacement of seals without opening of cylinder end covers. v. Cartridge type sealing is extremely useful where cylinders are mounted on machine structure to not dismantle the cylinder. c. Design Features i. Piston Rod Hard chrome plated for better durability and sealing Available in range of diameters for different applications ii. Rod Cartridge assembly Precision machined for better wear resistance Single piece, threaded assembly done into the head on a precision bored diameter for superior fit. iii. Sealing system
