    AHP MERKLE HMZ Series Hydraulic Cylinders

    General Overview

    The HMZ series is a compact, high‑pressure round‑body hydraulic cylinder with integrated magnetic sensor grooves, manufactured by AHP Merkle GmbH (Germany). It is specially designed for precision automation and closed‑loop position‑control applications, built for 250 bar maximum working pressure, combining the heavy‑duty performance of the HZ 250 series with direct position‑sensing capability.
    HMZ is the high‑pressure sensor‑ready counterpart of the MHZ 160 series, engineered for heavy‑load clamping, pressing, core pulling and safety‑critical hydraulic systems.

    Model Code Definition

    Q: What’s the MOQ of customized tie-rod cylinder?

    A: Depends on the style of tie-rod. We would like to cast and forge once the quantity above 100 pcs.

    Q:What’s the lead time of customized tie-rod cylinder?

    A:  Well, it depends on the quantity and style of hydrualic cylinders, at least 60 days if we make casting and forging, at least 35 days by maching.

    Q: Are you the manufacturer of hydrualic cylinder?

    A: Sure, we are the manufacutuer and trading of hydraulic cylinder.

    Q: What is the difference between double acting and single acting cylinders?own controlled by the pump or the valve or is it only one speed?

    A: Double-Acting-have a port at each end, supplied with hydraulic fluid for both the retraction and extension. Single-Acting-hydraulic fluid enters through

    a port at one end of the cylinder, which extends the rod by means of area difference. An external force or gravity returns the piston rod.

    Q: I have a drawing, could you customized cylinder as my drawing?

    A: Sure. Show us the drawing, we will quote for you soonest.

    Q: Could you make the cylinder which is not on the above data sheet?

    A: Yes, we make and supply a wide rang of hydrualic cylinders as a proffetional manufacture, there are only some kinds of them show on the website. Freely contact us to get more information.

    Core Advantages

    1. 250 bar high‑pressure rating: Suitable for heavy‑duty industrial and mould applications
    2. Built‑in sensor groove: Saves installation space, improves sensor reliability and reduces assembly time
    3. Compact round‑body design: Short overall length for space‑restricted tooling and automation
    4. Low‑friction, stable operation: Optimised guiding and sealing system for creep‑free low‑speed performance
    5. High durability: Hardened chrome‑plated rod and thick‑walled tube ensure long service life
    6. Modular structure: Seals and sensors can be replaced on‑site simply

    Typical Applications

    1. Die‑casting & injection moulds: Core pulling, ejection, clamping with position feedback
    2. Heavy‑duty machine tools: Workpiece clamping, slide drives and pressing units
    3. Industrial automation: Precision positioning, closed‑loop control, safety locking systems
    4. Automotive manufacturing: Welding fixtures, assembly stations, high‑force pressing operations
    5. Hydraulic presses: Stamping, forming and assembly processes requiring stroke monitoring
