A standard and customized range

HPS HYDROPNEU GmbH

HPS HYDROPNEU’s success story began in the year 1958, when the company was founded in the heart of Baden-Württemberg. In the beginning the company developed hydraulic and pneumatic drive- and control components. After some years relying on its strong suit, however, hydraulics became the major focus of the company. The company’s attention to this area of business combined with its policy of systematic innovations and high engineering competence led to an elevated standard of performance thus establishing HPS HYDROPNEU`s position amongst the leading manufacturers on the hydraulic market.

Today the major center of attention is the production of hydraulic cylinders used in almost all areas of the industry. From classical mechanical engineering to high-tech medicine, from die casting tools to spoilers on a racing car, from waste incineration boilers to regulation systems for turbines - there is hardly any technical field in which HPS HYDROPNEU’s products haven`t been utilized with unrelenting success.

Due to customers’ frequent demands to deliver complete hydraulic systems the company has continuously expanded its expertise in the area of hydraulic power units and controls over the past years.
Therefore it will be our pleasure to advise you on the design of your hydraulic system and provide you with whatever you need; from individual components up to complete electro-hydraulic systems.

Dynamic Future

As a consequence of this ongoing vibrant culture of development and self-improvement and in reply to the increasing globalization of the market appropriate strategies for both the present and the future are required.

Die-Casting Industry

Hydraulic cylinders in the die casting industry work under most difficult conditions in extreme surroundings such as tight spaces and high degrees of pollution and high temperatures. Manufacturers of dies, moulds and tools request customized technology and tailored hydraulic cylinders. To fulfill these requests we draw from our vast experience in die casting technology to develop and improve our products.

We do not only focus on constructing the cylinder with its function but take a close look at the environment with our customer. Apart from the parameters of the hydraulic circuit finding the balance with other components plays a significant part.

HPS HYDROPNEU - Variety and Precision

You need a cylinder with optimal performance and yet designed for a small space and manufactured in first-class quality for your special application? Adequate additional functions are more important to you than conformity with standards? Then simply select from our in-house standard types.

HYDROPNEU standard cylinders offer economy of space through their slim design and their minimum overall length. They offer the perfect solution for many problems in connection with features such as cooling jackets, possibilities of mounting switches, position measuring systems, etc.

The piston diameters range from 12 to 200 mm, the strokerange reaches up to 2000 mm with nominal pressures building up to 400 bar. Our thick-walled cylinder pipes, which are honed at the inside and our ground, hard-chromium-plated piston rods, which can be surface-hardened if desired, guarantee a long life and high reliability in all our standard cylinders.

HPS HYDROPNEU "Standardized Quality"

If you desire full compatibility with national and international standards of your hydraulic cylinders without having to forsake the proven technology and quality of HYDROPNEU, then our standard cylinders, subject to DIN/ISO, perfectly fulfill your needs.

Standardized attaching and mounting dimensions for seals, modularity of the components as well as the use of standard parts for components and accessories provides you with maximum flexibility both in maintenance and in replacement.

Materials and manufacturing processes are carefully chosen to master the high quality requirements at HYDROPNEU.

All cylinders - available with up to 16 mounting types per cylinder type, nominal pressures from 100 to 250 bar, piston diameters from 25 to 320 mm and strokes up to 2000 mm - can be perfectly adapted to each particular case of application.

Water and Sewage Industry

In the water and sewage industry high pressure hydraulics is often used to operate large valves and hydraulic shutters requiring a high degree of driving force and safety. This poses special requirements for the hydraulic components used. Biodegradable material demands special care with regards to sealing agents. For these components a high degree of leakage safety is required to meet regulations for water pollution controls. Working with sewage our products are often exposed to aggressive matters necessitating a special anti-corrosion coating treatment. Moreover explosive gases may occur in these areas so special care has to be taken to avoid sparking ignition.

To get a definite switching status we rely on a variety of sensory options. Proximity switches (partly in ATEX), stoke measuring systems or internal terminal position recognition are employed upon customer request.
