High productivity in hydraulic cylinder machining

How to increase the flexibility of your manufacturing process

 

Our free webinar on optimizing your cylinder tubes

June 25,  2026 
3.00 pm - 3.30 pm (CET)

Hydraulic cylinders place the highest demands on precision, surface finish, and flexibility in manufacturing. Join our webinar with Dr.-Ing. Oliver Maiß to discover how skiving/roller burnishing on standard CNC machines can help you not only optimize your production processes but also reduce your reliance on supply chains.

Here’s what you can expect from our webinar:

  • Practical Insights: How skiving/roller burnishing works on your CNC machine from tool integration to high-precision surface finishing.
  • Gain Flexibility: Why in-house production reduces your reliance on external semi-finished products and gives you more leeway for customizations.
  • Knowledge Transfer: Everything you need to know about feasibility, productivity, and the key factors for successful implementation in your production process.

Surface Engineering through mechanical processing

The properties of a surface can be specifically and reliably imparted using mechanical surface treatment processes. This allows the desired functions of the components to be achieved cost-effetively and reproducibly.

The best-know mechanical surface treatment processes:

Shot blasting

Kugelstrahlen-1
In shot blasting, spherical abrasive particles are blasted onto the surface in a targeted manner. The impacts cause deformation of the surface and harden it.

Roller burnishing

Glattwalzen
The surface is continuously plastically deformed by pressing in and rolling a ball or roller. This creates a particularly smooth surface without removing any material.

Deep rolling

Festwalzen
As with roller burnishing, the surface is treated with a roller or ball. However, the process is carried out with the aim of introducing compressive stresses and work hardening and increasing strength.

Diamond smoothing

Diamantglätten

Mechanical pressing of a diamond hemisphere into the surface. The pressing causes the diamond to rub against the surface, thereby smoothing it.

Machine hammer peening

Haemmern
Impulse-like stressing of the surface by a hammer head to significantly strengthen the surface. The impulse generated by the hammering results in a significantly greater penetration depth into the surface.

Skiving/roller burnishing

Schaelen
Fast and efficient internal machining of cylinder tubes through a combination of boring, internal round peeling, and roller burnishing.
