4. Typical Applications

4.1. Rear Loader Slide System

Slide cylinders can be used to control the movement of the slide mechanism inside rear loader garbage trucks.
Typical functions include:
·Slide movement
·Waste positioning
·Material transfer
·Loading-cycle operation

4.2. Sweep Mechanism

Sweep cylinders provide hydraulic actuation for sweep mechanisms used during the waste collection and compaction cycle.
They are designed around the specific stroke and mounting requirements of the garbage truck body.

4.3. Packer Mechanism

Packer cylinders are used to actuate the packing mechanism that compresses waste inside the rear loader body.
The cylinder must provide sufficient hydraulic force while operating repeatedly throughout the collection cycle.

4.4. Waste Collection & Recycling Equipment

These hydraulic cylinders can also be used in:
·Rear loader garbage trucks
·Waste collection trucks
·Garbage compactor trucks
·Municipal waste handling equipment
·Recycling collection vehicles
·Refuse transportation equipment

6. FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a rear loader garbage truck hydraulic cylinder?
A rear loader garbage truck hydraulic cylinder is a hydraulic actuator used to operate mechanisms such as slide, sweep and packer systems on rear-loading waste collection vehicles.

2. What is a garbage truck packer cylinder?
A garbage truck packer cylinder provides hydraulic movement for the packer mechanism that compresses waste inside a rear loader garbage truck.

3. Can you manufacture replacement cylinders for existing garbage trucks?
Yes. Replacement cylinders can be manufactured according to an OEM part number, technical drawing, existing cylinder sample or detailed dimensions.

4. Can the bore, rod and stroke be customized?
Yes. Bore diameter, rod diameter and stroke length can be customized according to the application and installation requirements.
5. What information do you need to quote a hydraulic cylinder?
Ideally, we need the bore diameter, rod diameter, stroke, retracted length, mounting dimensions, working pressure, application and quantity. An existing cylinder sample, drawing or OEM part number can also be used for evaluation.

6. Can these cylinders be used on different garbage truck brands?
Compatibility depends on the cylinder dimensions, mounting configuration, hydraulic system and operating mechanism. We recommend confirming the technical requirements before ordering.

7. Do you support OEM orders?
Yes. HCIC supports OEM and customized hydraulic cylinder manufacturing for international customers.

8. How do you test hydraulic cylinders before shipment?
Completed cylinders can undergo inspection and hydraulic pressure or functional testing according to the applicable product and customer requirements.

7. Replacement Rear Loader Garbage Truck Cylinders

When replacing a hydraulic cylinder on an existing rear loader garbage truck, the original part number alone may not always provide enough information for correct replacement. Cylinder bore, rod diameter, stroke, retracted length, mounting dimensions and hydraulic port configuration should be checked before ordering.

HCIC can evaluate replacement requirements based on an existing cylinder, technical drawing, OEM part number or dimensional information.

For replacement applications, customers are encouraged to provide:
·Existing cylinder photos
·OEM part number
·Bore diameter
·Rod diameter
·Stroke length
·Retracted length
·Mounting dimensions
·Hydraulic port information
·Garbage truck model
·Required quantity
HCIC also manufactures custom hydraulic cylinders for specialized mobile equipment.
