Advantages of mechanical synchronization telescopic piston

Mechanically synchronized telescopic pistons (TCS and EC models) Telescopic pistons, which can be 2, 3 or 4 sections, have the advantage of being able to double or triple the elevator travel for the same cylinder length.

Mechanically synchronized telescopic pistons allow for 2, 4, 6 and 8 piston configurations so that car and freight elevators can be designed with a wide variety of loads, dimensions and cabin travels. They are designed to ensure proper expansion of the different sections so that the cabin always moves smoothly.

Mechanically synchronized telescopic pistons, i.e. using chains and sprockets, have the following advantages:

  • The cost of the equipment is reduced.
  • Direct action systems can be implemented, thus eliminating pulleys, cables and parachutes on the chassis (EN 81.2), simplifying installation and reducing maintenance costs.
  • No special overtravels need to be considered as no resynchronization is required.
  • This system requires little space.
  • A double safety system is implemented, by adding, in addition to the parachute valve, a device against possible chain breakage.

  1. Hello, good afternoon.

    I am working on a project for a hydraulic car lift and I would like you to send me more information about this type of mechanical telescopic pistons, since the commercial information does not indicate the lengths of the stages or the diameters of the rods.
    thanks in advance

    1. Good morning,
      In response to your request, one of our sales representatives will contact you to inform you of your needs.

      Greetings,

  2. I would like as much information as possible about your products since we are dedicated to the sale and installation of hydraulic elevators of all types in the city of Mar del Plata and the Zoma in Argentina.
    I greet you sincerely.
    Eng. Scampitelli

  3. To whom it may concern, please quote me equipment for a two-story elevator, one 8 meters and one 4 meters for 6 tons and 3 tons.
