HCIC’s custom lightweight hydraulic cylinders solve the weight reduction challenge for global new energy logistics vehicles—ideal for procurement teams seeking high-performance, space-saving solutions. The global new energy logistics vehicle market is growing fast, and cutting weight to boost range has become a must-have for all logistics businesses. Traditional hydraulic cylinders are heavy and bulky, making them impossible to fit into the compact chassis of new energy models. HCIC’s tailor-made lightweight hydraulic cylinders, tested to work stably at -20℃ to 50℃ (a standard range for industrial-grade seals), fix this problem for real and have won over buyers across Europe, Asia, and South America.
Today’s new energy logistics vehicles already carry heavy battery packs, and adding traditional steel hydraulic cylinders only adds to the overall weight—directly hitting vehicle range. What’s worse, new energy models have tight chassis designs, and traditional hydraulic cylinders lack size flexibility: either they don’t fit, or modifying the body to install them costs time and money. Whether for urban delivery or long-haul transport, logistics companies worldwide want "light, compact, durable" hydraulic cylinders—and that’s the top priority when making procurement decisions.
To tackle these issues, HCIC has optimized every aspect—materials, design, and performance—based on actual needs:
3. Lightweight Material Mix:
The cylinder body uses high-strength aluminum alloy combined with special alloy steel, 30% lighter than pure steel hydraulic cylinders while maintaining a compressive strength of 25MPa, easily handling the frequent lifting and load-bearing of daily logistics operations;
Upgraded from traditional two or three-stage structures to four-stage telescopic, cutting installation space by 40%. It fits all brands of new energy logistics vehicles without extra body modifications;
Passed high and low temperature tests from -20℃ to 50℃, plus simulated tests in dusty and humid environments. Whether in cold Northern Europe or hot, humid Southeast Asia, the hydraulic cylinders run smoothly with no jamming or oil leakage.
An overseas logistics equipment supplier was looking for hydraulic cylinders for its new energy box trucks, with a core requirement of cutting weight by over 25% and adapting to different road conditions. HCIC customized the cylinder body and seals specifically, based on their vehicle dimensions, load parameters, and the climate of the usage area.
After over six months of use, the customer reported a 12% increase in vehicle range. The hydraulic cylinders telescoped smoothly even on bumpy roads, with no malfunctions during this period. They’ve since placed 3 additional orders and recommended HCIC to industry peers.
