Hydraulic Cylinders Market By Function (Single Acting Cylinders, Double Acting Cylinders), By Design (Tie-rod Cylinders, Welded Cylinders), By Bore Size (Less Than 50mm, 51mm to 100mm, 101mm to 150mm, Greater Than 151mm): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2030
The hydraulic cylinders market was valued at $14,070.0 million in 2020 and is estimated to reach $21,243.2 million by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 4% from 2021 to 2030.
Hydraulic cylinders are essential mechanical tools that transform hydraulic energy into linear mechanical force and movement. They are vital in a wide range of industrial uses that involve heavy lifting, pushing, pulling, or holding tasks. The fundamental concept behind hydraulic cylinders involves the utilization of pressurized hydraulic fluid to produce force, usually through a piston housed within a cylindrical structure.
A hydraulic cylinder consists of various key parts such as a cylinder barrel, piston, piston rod, seals, and hydraulic fluid. The cylinder barrel acts as the primary structure containing the hydraulic fluid, with the piston separating the cylinder into the rod side and cap side chambers. The piston rod extends from the piston to transmit the force to the external load or machinery. Seals play a crucial role in preserving the hydraulic fluid's integrity inside the cylinder and avoiding any leaks.
Hydraulic cylinders function according to Pascal's principle, which asserts that when pressure is exerted on a confined fluid, it applies equal pressure in all directions. In a hydraulic cylinder, hydraulic fluid is pumped into one side of the cylinder, prompting the piston to move in the intended direction. The force produced by the hydraulic fluid acting on the piston is transferred through the piston rod to the external load, allowing for linear motion.
By function, the hydraulic cylinders market is classified into single acting hydraulic cylinders, and double acting hydraulic cylinders. Double-acting hydraulic cylinders utilize hydraulic fluid to generate force in two directions, facilitating the extension and retraction of the piston. In contrast to single-acting cylinders that necessitate an external force or spring for retraction, double-acting cylinders feature ports at both ends for fluid intake and discharge. This configuration enables accurate control and uniform power in both directions, rendering them well-suited for tasks demanding both pushing and pulling actions, like those found in industrial machinery, construction equipment, and material handling systems. Their adaptability and effectiveness elevate performance in a range of demanding and dynamic operations.
By design, the market is categorized into tie-rod hydraulic cylinders and welded hydraulic cylinders. Welded hydraulic cylinders are a type of hydraulic cylinder where the end caps are welded directly to the cylinder barrel, creating a more compact and robust design compared to tie-rod cylinders. Tie-rod hydraulic cylinders utilize high-strength steel rods to connect cylinder components, ensuring structural integrity and strength. These cylinders, commonly found in industrial settings, are known for their cost-effectiveness, ease of maintenance, and versatility. With different sizes and configurations available, tie-rod cylinders are suitable for a wide range of tasks, from basic lifting and pushing to intricate machinery operations in manufacturing and automation systems.
By Bore Size, the market is categorized into less than 50mm hydraulic cylinders, 51mm to 100mm hydraulic cylinders, 101mm to 150 mm hydraulic cylinders, and greater than 151mm hydraulic cylinders. Hydraulic cylinders are crucial elements in a wide range of industrial uses, offering flexible and robust solutions for medium-duty tasks. They are commonly found in construction machinery, agricultural equipment, material handling systems, and manufacturing processes. Their size range strikes a good balance between force output and compactness, making them ideal for applications that call for moderate force and precision. The demand for hydraulic cylinders with bore sizes ranging from 51mm to 100mm is fueled by their adaptability, reliability, and efficiency in various operational settings, playing a significant role in the growth and technological progress of the hydraulic cylinders market.
The hydraulic cylinders market is segmented into function, design, bore size, and region. On the basis of function, the market is classified into single acting cylinders, and double acting cylinders. In 2020, the double acting cylinders segment dominated the market, and single acting cylinders segment is expected to acquire a major market share by 2030. On the basis of design, the market is categorized into tie-rod cylinders, and welded cylinders. The welded cylinders segment acquired the largest share in 2020 and tie-rod cylinders segment is expected to grow at a significant CAGR from 2021 to 2030. On the basis of bore size, the market is segregated into less than 50mm, 51mm to 100mm, 101mm to 150mm, and greater than 151mm. In 2020, the 51mm to 100mm segment dominated the market, and 101mm to 150mm is expected to acquire a major market share by 2030.
