Marine Hydraulics
Marine hydraulics plays a critical role in various marine applications, as it involves the use of fluids to transmit energy and power. Its application in the marine sector includes controlling heavy equipment, opening and closing doors, and operating cranes and winches.
In the marine sector, one of the primary applications of hydraulic systems is for steering and propulsion. Hydraulic systems are used to power the vessel’s steering system, enabling it to change direction, as well as propellers and thrusters, which move the vessel through the water. Additionally, hydraulic systems control the movement of rudders and stabilisers to keep the vessel stable in rough seas.

Marine Hydraulic Cylinders
Marine hydraulic cylinders are a vital part of hydraulic systems, which have extensive use in industries like construction, manufacturing, and transportation. They help convert fluid pressure into linear motion, providing an efficient way to move heavy equipment and loads.
In addition to this, marine hydraulic systems serve various other purposes, including controlling the movement of anchors, mooring lines, and deck machinery like capstans and windlasses, along with the movement of hydraulic cylinders used in multiple applications.
Handling cargo is another significant use of marine hydraulics. Hydraulic cranes and winches are instrumental in lifting and moving heavy loads on and off ships, while hydraulic doors and hatches open and close compartments and cargo holds. Marine hydraulic systems also play a crucial role in loading and unloading oil and gas from tankers, and controlling fluid flow through pipelines.
