STORZ PRODUCTS > Synchronous cylinder
Synchronous cylinders have a piston rod on both ends and identical surface areas on the piston.
This allows for a uniform movement with the same force in both directions.
Good to know: These hydraulic cylinders have a piston rod that emerges on either side. Their components essentially correspond to the standardized ZBD 2511 series.

A synchronous cylinder features a double-ended piston rod, ensuring smooth and consistent movement. The piston’s working surfaces distribute force evenly in both directions. Equal surface area on the piston results in the same force being applied in both directions. The piston rod can extend in either direction, making these cylinders suitable for specialized applications. This design enables precise and symmetrical movements, ideal for applications requiring constant force in both directions.
The synchronous cylinder is easy and effective to use. It ensures high precision through consistent speed and identical piston rod travel. These characteristics make it a reliable solution for steering and rudder applications requiring precise and symmetrical movements. Ideal for situations demanding constant forces and bidirectional movement.
Synchronous cylinders are ideal for specialized applications and can be custom-made to individual specifications. Our cylinders are robust and designed for high-frequency use in general mechanical engineering. Thanks to their precise and consistent movements, they offer a reliable solution for numerous industrial applications. Further technical details can be found in the datasheet for our synchronous cylinders.
Our synchronous cylinders are used, for example, in the following areas:
