Main Operating Cylinder for Ro-ro Platform

Specifications of Ro-ro Platform Main Operating Cylinder

The Main Operating Cylinder for Ro-ro Platform is a hydraulic cylinder that is essential for retracting the springboard and ramp of a roll-on/roll-off (ro-ro) platform. This component is critical for the ro-ro platform's operational efficiency and plays a significant role in the safe loading and unloading of vehicles and cargo.

Typically positioned at the base of the springboard and ramp, the Main Operating Cylinder connects to a hydraulic power unit. When activated, this unit pumps pressurized fluid into the cylinder, causing the piston to extend. This extension results in the retraction of the springboard and ramp, facilitating the loading and unloading processes.

Ro-ro Platform Main Operating Cylinder Features

• Heavy-duty construction: Ro-ro platform main operating cylinders are typically made of high-strength steel or other alloys, ensuring durability against heavy loads and harsh marine conditions.
• Corrosion protection: Special coatings are applied to ro-ro platform main operating cylinders to protect against corrosion, particularly in saltwater environments.
• Seals and gaskets: These cylinders utilize various seals and gaskets to prevent leaks and contamination, ensuring reliable operation.
• Rod guides: The piston rods are guided by rod guides, promoting smooth movement and reducing wear.
• Buffers: Buffers at the end of the stroke absorb shock loads, protecting the cylinders and related components from damage.

How the Main Operating Cylinder Works to Retract the Springboard and Ramp?

1. The hydraulic fluid is pumped into the cylinder chamber, extending the piston rod.
2. The piston rod is connected to the springboard and ramp linkages, which pull the springboard and ramp towards the platform.
3. As the springboard and ramp are retracted, the cables are slackened.
4. The hydraulic fluid is then pumped out of the cylinder chamber, retracting the piston rod.
5. The springboard and ramp return to their lowered position.
