Trunnion Mount Hydraulic Cylinder/Excavator stick cylinder/Crane variable amplitude oil cylinder
A trunnion mount hydraulic cylinder features dual pivot mounts for articulated motion, allowing ±10-15° angular movement under load. It converts hydraulic pressure into linear force (typically 50-500T) while handling radial/axial loads.
Key Applications:
Excavator arm/boom cylinders
Crane luffing mechanisms
Rolling mill presses
Ship steering systems
Advantages:Dual trunnions distribute stress better than single mountsEliminates need for additional support bearingsOptional flange/sleeve designs for varied loads
Design Notes:Calculate bending moments at max swing angleUse bronze-bushed trunnions for wear resistancePair with self-lubricating bearings
Ideal for dynamic misalignment applications, these cylinders operate at 210-350bar (up to 500bar in heavy-duty versions) with extended service life.
