HyperCyl utilizes Hydra-Pneumatic technology, which offers the convenience of air with the force of hydraulics. Their air over oil cylinders are more energy efficient, using only 25% – 30% of the air required for multi-piston air cylinders. Since they do not use a power unit, HyperCyl’s cylinders take up less space, produce less noise and generate less heat.
