Small Hydraulic Lifting Systems

Small Hydraulic Lifting Systems

(OP)
I have a 500Kg - 1000Kg 'four post' section that I need to lift approximately 50cm, as well as returning it to its original position. I needs to be lifted simultaneously from all four corners

My problem is that the system has to be completely hidden within a framework at each corner measuring about 8cm by 8cm.

Does anybody have any solutions that can help me with this problem.

Thanks

RE: Small Hydraulic Lifting Systems

Try looking at this thread which sounds quite similar. Quite high pressure hydraulic cylinders to me.
