We develop and manufacture custom hydraulic cylinders precisely tailored to your technical requirements and operating conditions.
We support you already in the development phase with the design, engineering, and optimization of your cylinder solution. To ensure maximum accuracy, we use FEM analysis.
We support your project from technical consulting through design and manufacturing all the way to final delivery.
Thanks to our versatile machinery fleet, we can respond flexibly to a wide range of requirements and production volumes.
Together with you, we develop the right solution for your application—from the initial idea to the engineering design.
Thanks to short decision-making processes and in-house manufacturing, we can implement projects quickly and efficiently.
As specialists in custom hydraulic cylinders, we optimize existing designs and develop new solutions for your challenges.
That is why every custom hydraulic cylinder is individually tailored to your requirements—always reliable and manufactured to the highest quality standards.
Whether extremely confined installation spaces, high dynamic loads, special media guidance, or complex sealing concepts — our cylinders are designed for maximum functionality under real operating conditions.
With our proprietary deep-R process, we not only optimize weld seams and material utilization, but also develop more compact, efficient, and robust cylinder solutions — precisely tailored to your process.
Different applications require different types of hydraulic cylinders.
To ensure you are perfectly equipped for your needs, we offer, among others, the following hydraulic cylinder types:
At our Herzogenrath location, ACONA unites the entire process of hydraulic cylinder manufacturing under one roof—from planning and design, through to production and hydraulic cylinder repair.
This integrated approach enables us to respond flexibly and quickly to your individual requirements right from the development phase.
Every hydraulic cylinder is fully custom-made and meticulously planned and engineered down to the smallest detail.
With precise calculations—such as for load distribution, service life, and stability—we ensure that each new or overhauled hydraulic cylinder fits seamlessly into your system and delivers reliable, long-lasting performance.
In accordance with your requirements, we advise you on the selection of the appropriate piston rod coating and a fitting sealing concept - suitable for your application with the highest safety requirements even under aggressive environmental conditions (corrosion resistance) and high loads.
In addition, we can draw on decades of experience in the selection of stroke measuring systems and bearing technology in various applications.
We process numerous materials for the production of our hydraulic cylinders, such as structural steels, stainless steels, heat-treatable steels and non-ferrous metals.
On request, we are able to design your hydraulic cylinder in accordance with the relevant standards and prepare a corresponding certificate, for example in accordance with:
Our company is proud to utilise state-of-the-art methodology for the design and calculation of our cylinders. We use our engineering and FEM analysis for this purpose.
Our machinery, which enables us to manufacture hydraulic cylinders with piston diameters of up to 800 mm - and even larger in special cases - is also a great benefit.

Whenever space is limited, loads are high, or requirements are exceptional, a custom cylinder from ACONA is the right solution.
Our special cylinders are used, among other areas, in:
At our company, the production of a hydraulic cylinder goes through five carefully managed steps to ensure the final product meets your exact requirements.
From the initial planning to final delivery, we pay attention to every detail to guarantee the highest quality and reliability.
The first step is a detailed consultation to clarify all key factors for your hydraulic cylinder.
These include the stroke length, required force, and piston diameter, as well as installation location, ambient temperature, and operating frequency.
If you already have specific engineering plans, we will implement them exactly to your specifications.
We are also pleased to assist in developing design plans.
Our experienced engineers use precise FEM analyses (Finite Element Method) to realistically simulate mechanical loads.
This approach enables detailed mapping of complex component geometries and accurate calculation of stresses, deformations, and loads under actual operating conditions.
Critical areas are identified early, precisely optimized, and both safety and service life of your cylinder are significantly increased.
Once all details have been clarified, we will provide you with a tailored proposal for your hydraulic cylinder. This offer takes into account not only the specific technical requirements but also your individual preferences regarding delivery time and budget. We provide transparent cost structures that make every step of the production process clear. Our aim is to offer you the best value for money while always ensuring the highest level of quality.
With the defined parameters, we begin designing your hydraulic cylinder, relying exclusively on proven methods and high-grade materials to guarantee the desired service life and maximum reliability.
Technical challenges are overcome by our experienced engineering team during the design phase.
Thanks to our proprietary deep-R process, we can increase the strength of weld seams and enhance the overall performance of the cylinder.
This enables us to design slimmer and more efficient hydraulic cylinders that withstand higher loads and are more environmentally friendly through significant material savings.
After the hydraulic cylinder has been manufactured, it undergoes comprehensive quality control.
We test the functionality, load capacity, and durability of the cylinder to ensure our product meets your high expectations and operates reliably.
Once all tests have been successfully completed and the hydraulic cylinder has met our stringent quality standards, it is securely packaged and delivered to you on schedule. We place great emphasis on careful logistics to ensure that the product arrives in perfect condition.
You will find our custom hydraulic cylinders in the following—and many other—applications:
We will inform you without obligation about how we can supply you with customised and innovative products for demanding projects with deep-R.
