Rigorous Production & Prototype Testing

Hydraulic Technologies can engineer, design and build production cylinders for on-time deliveries and we have experience developing prototype cylinders quickly for field-testing and evaluation.

  • Our test benches are all maintained to ISO 4406 minimum 17/14 cleanliness standards.
  • Hydraulic Technologies' production and prototype cylinders are 100% pressure tested to meet customer specifications or tested to our standard requirements.
  • Each cylinder must pass pressure and cycle testing specifications at pressures to 5000PSI depending on application requirements.
  • The testing procedure continues with an internal pressure bypass check and external weld and seal inspection to identify any potential leakage.
  • Valves are installed, if required, then torqued to specification and visually marked to verify proper installation.
  • All cylinders are then date coded or serialized to provide positive field identification and most importantly material traceability.
  • Finally, any prototype cylinder being tested is also validated through a first article inspection after the assembly process by engineering and our quality department prior to final release
