Hydraulic Lifting Tools for Industrial Applications | Hydrarite

The application of hydraulic lifting tools spans from simple workshop tasks to highly complex engineered lifts, all requiring a steadfast commitment to safety and performance. This includes products like hydraulic bushing tools, bearing heaters with integrated lifts, and cylinder carts. In the pulp and paper industry, massive rolls of paper (reels) weighing several tons are handled using specially designed hydraulic reel-lifting trucks. These trucks must gently grip the reel's core without crushing it and lift it for transport to the printing or coating machine. For the installation of large bushings or sleeves into machinery, a hydraulic bushing tool is used. It combines a hydraulic jack with specific adapters to press the bushing into place with a controlled, axial force, preventing cocking and damage. A bearing heater with an integrated hydraulic lift is used in maintenance shops. The bearing is heated to expand it, and then the built-in lift smoothly raises it into position on a shaft for a perfect interference fit as it cools. The design of these tools often involves close collaboration with end-users to address real-world pain points, leading to innovative utility model patents. If your operation involves a repetitive lifting task that could be optimized, or if you require a standard tool from our extensive catalog, we are here to help.
