Logistics Equipment Hydraulic Cylinders are core actuators designed specifically for the logistics industry and play a vital role in warehousing, handling, and transportation equipment. They are widely used in forklifts, lifting platforms, automatic stackers, cargo conveying devices, and other equipment, providing precise power and motion control to support the efficient completion of various logistics operations. In the warehousing system, they are used to drive lifting platforms and shelf lifting mechanisms to ensure efficient flow of goods in the vertical direction and improve storage space utilization. In handling equipment, such as forklifts and pallet trucks, they can support the lifting and transportation of goods to ensure smooth and safe operation. Automated stackers rely on them to complete the precise stacking and placement of goods, significantly reducing manual operations and improving operation accuracy and speed. In addition, in automated conveyor lines and cargo sorting equipment, Logistics Equipment Hydraulic Cylinders can be used to control the expansion contraction, and adjustment of equipment to ensure the continuity and stability of the logistics system.
Logistics Equipment Hydraulic Cylinders, with their high load capacity, precise control, and stable performance, not only meet the requirements of logistics equipment under high-frequency and high-load operations but also provide important support for the efficient operation of modern logistics systems. They are an indispensable technical component for promoting industry automation and intelligence.
Established in 1988, Jiangsu Hengcai Hydraulic Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has been dedicated to the research and development as well as the manufacturing of hydraulic cylinders. Situated in Jianhu County, Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province, the factory enjoys a strategic location with Dafeng Port to the east, Xuzhou to the west, Nantong to the south, and Lianyungang to the north. The Xinchang Railway traverses the area, and the 204 National Highway, Coastal Expressway, Yancheng-Xuzhou Expressway, and Ningjingyan Expressway crisscross the region, providing a well-connected transportation network. The proximity to Yancheng Nanyang International Airport, just a 70-kilometer drive away, has laid a solid foundation for the company's rapid growth.
As China Logistics Equipment Hydraulic Cylinders Manufacturers and Logistics Equipment Hydraulic Cylinders Suppliers, our hydraulic cylinder products are widely used across various industries, including petroleum, chemical, marine, coal, metallurgy, engineering, construction, machine tools, agricultural machinery, and transportation, serving over 40 large and medium-sized main machine factories. Our products are also exported to the United States, Japan, Russia, and other countries and regions, accompanying the main machines, thus expanding our product's reach globally.
Adhering to the corporate spirit of "Advocate the persistence, endeavour for the winning," and the corporate philosophy of "Technological innovation and technology, people-oriented," we strive to provide reliable products and services in return for the trust of our valued customers.

Logistics Equipment Hydraulic Cylinders Industry knowledge
Jiangsu Hengcai Hydraulic Mechanical Co., Ltd. designs and manufactures hydraulic cylinders for the logistics industry from our plant in Jianhu County, Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province, China. Since 1988, we have focused on hydraulic cylinder R&D and production, with an annual output of more than 80,000 cylinders and products accompanying original equipment to the United States, Japan, Russia and other markets.
As a China Logistics Equipment Hydraulic Cylinders manufacturer and supplier, we cover the actuators used in forklifts, vehicle tailboard lifts, lifting platforms, automatic stackers, pallet trucks, conveyors and sorting equipment. The two product families in this category are our vehicle tailboard cylinder and forklift cylinder, both built around the load, stroke and mounting envelope of the original machine.
Logistics cylinders face repeated starts, variable loads, outdoor exposure and tight installation spaces. Our engineering focuses on stable extension, buffered stopping and long-term sealing so equipment can maintain throughput without unscheduled downtime.
In coastal and outdoor installations, we apply corrosion-protected piston rod technology and a complete coating system to avoid early surface damage. For high-frequency operations, rod seals and end buffer schemes are selected for the actual cycle count and speed rather than a generic standard.
We supply two dedicated logistics cylinder types, plus custom derivatives from the same manufacturing platform. The table below summarizes the current standard envelope.
| Product | Typical application | Bore / rod / stroke | Pressure / force / temperature |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vehicle Tailboard Hydraulic Cylinder | Truck tailboard lift platforms for fast loading and unloading. | 50-90 mm / 20-70 mm / 20-1300 mm | 5-25 MPa; push 10-180 kN, pull 8-70 kN; -15 to 80 C |
| Forklift Hydraulic Cylinder | Lift and fork-adjustment functions in 12-46-ton forklifts and logistics vehicles. | 70-200 mm / 35-150 mm / 50-3000 mm | 13-28 MPa; push up to 2900 kN, pull up to 1400 kN; -40 to 100 C |
Built for tailboard systems on different truck sizes. The cylinder controls descent speed and end-of-stroke behavior to keep loading and unloading safe with a single operator.
Long-stroke design with a flange-type guide sleeve for convenient part replacement. Piston rod anti-corrosion technology suits forklifts working in humid or coastal environments.
The same process base supports our Construction Hydraulic Cylinders line. In our factory, 22 manufacturing processes and 109 processing capabilities cover cylinder production, with a self-made parts rate around 70%. Core processes such as welding, heat treatment, electroplating and spraying are controlled internally to keep product quality stable from batch to batch.
A fully automated production line supports high-volume parts, and a 315-meter electrostatic coating line protects exposed surfaces. Our technical focus includes the following areas:
Every logistics cylinder starts with the machine's real working point. We configure the following variables before preparing a proposal:
For replacement or retrofit programs, dimensions from the original cylinder are enough to start: bore, rod, pin centers, closed and open length, port locations and electrical or sensor interfaces.
Our cylinders leave the factory with evidence from the same test systems used across the product line. The test department operates a 2P-2F durability test bench and a reciprocating and buffer comprehensive performance test bench. Physical/chemical and metallographic laboratories verify material composition, physical properties and dimensional accuracy.
If your project has additional acceptance requirements, they are written into the manufacturing plan before production starts.
Hengcai provides after-sales service that includes product installation, commissioning and training. If a quality issue is reported online or by phone, we respond within 24 hours and work on a detailed diagnosis or solution plan within 3-5 days.
To prepare a suitable proposal, our engineers need the following information. You can send drawings, samples, OEM part numbers or a list of measured dimensions.
This is the information we use to move from inquiry to product concept, manufacturing BOM and test plan.
We manufacture vehicle tailboard cylinders and forklift cylinders, and we develop custom actuators for lifting platforms, stackers, pallet trucks, conveyors and sorting equipment. The current standard range covers bore sizes from 50 mm to 200 mm with strokes up to 3000 mm.
Most logistics cylinders are customized. We develop and produce according to drawings or samples provided by customers, and our R&D team can also handle new development based on application parameters such as force, stroke, mounting and operating pressure.
Send machine type, required force, stroke, mounting style, working pressure, environment and annual volume. Old cylinder drawings or samples speed up the process significantly.
We provide ISO9001, ISO14001 and CE certification for relevant product scope, plus material and dimensional reports. Pressure and durability test results are included when specified in the project requirements.
Quality reports are answered within 24 hours, with a diagnosis or detailed plan within 3-5 days. The warranty period is one year, and warranty failures are covered by replacement or credit on the next order. Spare parts remain available long term.
