Telescopic Cylinders are found in dump trucks, lifts and garbage trucks etc. where power is needed to handle very heavy loads. These are some of the most common applications for telescopic cylinders.  Now, what are telescopic cylinders? Telescopic cylinders are a type of linear actuator consisting of a series of tubular rods called sleeves. The sleeves (usually four or five) sequentially decrease in diameter and are nested inside each other. They are also called multi-stage cylinders. What is their working principle? Once hydraulic pressure is introduced to the cylinder, the largest sleeve (called the main or barrel) is extended first. Once the barrel has reached its maximum stroke, the next sleeve usually referred to as a stage, begins to extend. This process continues until the cylinder reaches its last stage, called the plunger. Types of Telescopic Cylinders? There are two different types of telescopic hydraulic cylinders: 1. Single-acting cylinders -  Single-acting, by fa...

Jacks are devices used to lift heavy loads? It can be Mechanical, Electrical or Hydraulic, based on the method of force generation. A hydraulic jack works on the basis of Pascal’s law. A small force is applied to a smaller area of hydraulic fluid and that force generates some pressure in the fluid.  That pressure is then applied to a wider area at the output so that adequate force is generated to lift the load. So, basically, it’s the pressure that creates force and helps in the movement of heavy loads so easily. Applications of Hydraulic Jack Though a tool hydraulic jack can have innumerable applications but to enumerate a few, here we are: Used in earth moving equipment Lifts car or other vehicles for changing its tires To lift heavy loads in industries Cranes are fitted with Hydraulic jacks to lift load Used in lifting platforms Used in material handling equipment When deciding for getting one, always evaluate knowing the pros and cons completely. Pros: It occupies less space T...
