Fail-Safe Actuation for Every Lift #
Material handling equipment carries extreme risks to people and valuable assets; every lift and rotation must be reliable. For aerial work platforms, cranes, tail lifts and jacking systems, ASHUN supplies custom hydraulic cylinders with integrated fail-safe mechanisms and rotary actuators for high-precision positioning.

Industry Challenges #
- Stall and free-fall risks — Internal leakage or missing fail-safe mechanisms during heavy lifting can cause catastrophic platform or payload drops.
- Insufficient aerial rotation precision — Without stable, high-torque rotary power, aerial work platforms and crane booms struggle with multi-angle positioning.
- Long-term support leakage — Jacking systems must hold loads for extended periods; even micro-leakage threatens maintenance personnel below.
- High-frequency wear — Tail lifts and logistics vehicles endure hundreds of cycles daily, accelerating seal wear and downtime.
Product Characteristics #
- Integrated load-holding safety valves — Custom integration of load-holding and counterbalance valves provides lock protection during power loss or hose failure.
- Smooth rotation and precise positioning — Rotary actuators deliver consistent torque with minimized backlash for accurate micro-adjustments.
- Heavy-duty high-frequency endurance — Low-friction seals and high-pressure-resistant barrels support continuous lifting cycles.
- Robust weatherproofing — Surface plating resists outdoor weather and road salt corrosion for long-term structural safety.
