Mine and Aggregate Hydraulics are continually subjected to tortuous conditions. These conditions are aggravated even more when the mine is located in remote areas far from suppliers or repair facilities. These actuators must be tough!  Above: A Below Ground Mine Bucket Loader requires rugged hydraulic cylinders for the tough service it will see.Hydraulic cylinders used in mines will encounter heat, moisture, dust, grit, and the rough service that comes with handling rock and ore. Hyco Canada cusstom designs cylinders for mining equipment so that the actuators will endure these hardships and provide the user with a long service life. Hyco cylinders are therefore used on ore crushers, rigid haulers, articulated haulers, bucket loaders, ore conveyors, and tunnel boring machines. Above: The bucket tilt cylinders on this Articulated Ore Hauler will see tough service in the mining environment.
Above ground, open pit mines and aggregate quarries also demand rugged hydraulic actuators. These cylinders see the extremes of both hot and cold weather, both wet and dry conditions, dust and grit, constant service, and rough handling. Only heavy duty hydraulic cylinders can endure these conditions. Hyco Canada has been building cylinders for the above ground mine and aggregate market for over 6 decades.  Hyco Canada has supplied both telescopic and rod cylinders for over sized off road dump trucks and bucket haulers, dredgers, hydraulic shovels and loaders, rock crushers, dump buckets, aggregate conveyors, and so on. We have gained a well deserved reputation as the leader in this field. |
