Start with the load, the motion, and the conditions in the woods. Engineer the cylinder from there.
Forestry equipment lifts, grips, positions, and processes material that rarely presents the same load twice. Repeated cycles, changing leverage, shock, vibration, and exposure to bark, dirt, moisture, and temperature changes all affect the cylinder requirements.
The cylinder also has to fit the machine. A crowded harvesting head, an articulated loader boom, and a splitting mechanism each bring different mounting, motion, porting, and service-access challenges.
Aurelius Manufacturing works with OEM engineering teams to develop custom welded hydraulic cylinders around the complete application. Bring us the mechanism, operating conditions, and production requirements. We will work with your team to define the cylinder around them.

Forestry Applications
Harvesting, loading, clearing, and processing place different demands on hydraulic cylinders. The design starts with the specific mechanism: what it moves, how it is loaded, and where the cylinder has to fit.
These application areas provide a starting point for a conversation with Aurelius. We can evaluate the cylinder around your equipment’s motion, mounting, operating environment, controls, and recurring production needs.
Design Considerations
Bore, rod diameter, stroke, and pressure are starting points. Cylinder development also needs to account for the mechanism’s geometry, changing loads, operating conditions, and access for assembly and maintenance.
Aurelius works with your engineering team to evaluate those requirements together and identify practical mounting, porting, and configuration choices for the machine.

Why Aurelius
Bring us the application, including the parts that make it difficult.
A cylinder that looks straightforward on a drawing can become a difficult installation once the boom, hoses, guards, and surrounding mechanisms are in place. Working through those details early is part of application-focused engineering.
Aurelius brings cylinder engineering and manufacturing into the same conversation. Your team can start with a completed drawing, an existing design that needs review, or a new machine function that still needs a cylinder solution.
We consider mounting, porting, configuration, materials, and manufacturing requirements together. The objective is to develop the features the equipment needs and identify practical opportunities to simplify assembly or service.
Quality carries through to production. Aurelius inspects incoming tubing and rod stock, invests in employee training, and tests every cylinder it manufactures. For OEMs, the relationship can continue from design development into recurring production.
Yes. Aurelius works with OEM engineering teams to evaluate a custom welded cylinder around the application. Share the function, load cases, mounting geometry, stroke, installation space, operating pressure, environment, and production requirements.
