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.

Can lift cylinders be used in aerial work platforms and scissor lifts?
Yes, lift cylinders are commonly used in aerial work platforms and scissor lifts. Here’s an explanation of their utilization in these types of equipment:
Aerial work platforms, also known as aerial lifts or elevated work platforms, are used to provide elevated access for various tasks, such as maintenance, construction, or inspection work. Scissor lifts are a specific type of aerial work platform that utilize a scissor mechanism to vertically extend the platform. Lift cylinders play a crucial role in the lifting operation of both aerial work platforms and scissor lifts.
In scissor lifts, multiple lift cylinders are typically positioned vertically and connected to the scissor mechanism. These lift cylinders work in synchronization to extend or retract the scissor arms, thereby raising or lowering the platform. The lift cylinders exert force to expand the scissor arms, creating a lifting motion that allows the platform to reach elevated positions. By controlling the flow of hydraulic fluid to the lift cylinders, operators can easily adjust the platform height and achieve the desired working elevation.
Lift cylinders used in aerial work platforms and scissor lifts are usually hydraulic cylinders. Hydraulic systems offer the advantages of smooth operation, precise control, and high lifting capacities. The hydraulic system includes a pump, control valves, hydraulic lines, and the lift cylinders. When the hydraulic system is activated, the pump pressurizes the hydraulic fluid, which is then directed to the lift cylinders through the control valves. The pressurized fluid causes the lift cylinders to extend, resulting in the upward movement of the platform.
One of the key benefits of using lift cylinders in aerial work platforms and scissor lifts is their ability to provide stable and controlled lifting. The synchronized movement of the lift cylinders ensures that the platform remains level and secure during the lifting process. This stability is essential for safe working conditions at elevated heights.
In addition to lifting capabilities, lift cylinders in aerial work platforms and scissor lifts may incorporate features such as safety locks, overload protection, or emergency descent mechanisms. These safety measures enhance the overall performance and reliability of the equipment, ensuring the well-being of operators working at height.
Overall, lift cylinders are integral components in aerial work platforms and scissor lifts, enabling the vertical lifting motion and providing stability during elevated work. Their hydraulic operation, synchronized movement, and safety features make them essential for efficient and secure access at height.
