Eickhoff electric lift cylinders are closed electromechanical drives.
They consist of a drive motor with gear, coupling, mounted screw drive and spindle nut as well as a piston rod and a joint eye for connection to the unit.

In many areas of mechanical engineering, electromechanical drives are replacing hydraulic units in order to avoid the risk of oil leaking into water or the danger to people from burning liquids.
Our electric lifting cylinders have been specially developed for use in hydraulic steel construction. They are suitable as drives for contactors and bridge actuation, as well as for lock gates and barrages. With our modular system, various designs such as trapezoidal,
ball or planetary roller screw drive can be realized. Limit switches for permanent travel or load measurement can be integrated.

The drive systems are equipped with environmentally friendly, biodegradable fat filled to meet the strict environmental requirements. They are characterized by a special design adapted to the intended use, a high level of serviceability and versatility. Our electric lifting cylinders form a reliable and sustainable alternative to hydraulic lifting cylinders in various fields of application.
