Typical Customer Cases

1. From 2 to 900 – A Story of Trust from a Mexico Customer

   01.jpg

A Mexico-based truck manufacturer (name withheld for confidentiality) specializing in special vehicle modification.

In 2019, the customer wanted to use standard cylinders. But soon they realized: standard sizes couldn't fit their actual installation conditions. Every vehicle had different space and stroke requirements. They needed a truly custom solution.

We designed cylinders based on their on-site measurements. We reviewed drawings again and again – because any deviation could delay their entire project. The first 2 samples were completed and shipped within one week.

The customer tested the samples immediately. The cylinders worked perfectly. But given the high reliability requirements of truck modification, they were still concerned about long-term stability and lifespan. They didn't scale up immediately. They chose to wait.

A Long Trust-Building Journey

Four years passed. In 2023, the customer placed another sample order – this time for 4 pieces. We treated them the same way. No small order is ever treated lightly. 

1 piece or 1,000 pieces, our standard never changes.

In 2024, the customer increased the sample quantity to 10 pieces. The dimensions changed slightly – not because of quality issues, but because their installation conditions had changed. Again, we delivered fast and right.

2. Extra-Long Stroke Custom Cylinders – 2800mm Stroke: From 2 Samples to 48 Pieces per Month

  67c7ea870c427 (1).jpg

A Belgium-based semi-trailer manufacturer, specializing in sliding platforms for semi-trailer chassis.

We designed and manufactured a fully matched extra-long stroke custom cylinder based on their specifications:

Imported seal kits to ensure reliable sealing at low temperatures

Special low-temperature lubricant for -30°C operation

Optimized support structure for stability under extra-long stroke conditions

Each cylinder is individually leak-tested before shipment and packed in customized export wooden crates to prevent damage during transit.
