What is cylinder crawling
Cylinder crawling is a common abnormal phenomenon in hydraulic systems. It mainly manifests as intermittent and uneven jitter or jamming of the cylinder during movement, which seriously affects the stability and accuracy of the equipment. This phenomenon is particularly common in fields such as construction machinery, machine tools, and automated production lines. This article will combine the hot topics and hot content on the Internet in the past 10 days, starting fromCause analysis, impact and solutionsDiscuss three aspects.
1. The main reasons for cylinder crawling

According to recent industry discussions and technical analysis, common causes of cylinder crawling include the following:
| Cause classification | Specific performance |
|---|---|
| Hydraulic oil problem | Oil contamination, viscosity mismatch, excessive gas content |
| Mechanical structural issues | Seal wear, poor guide, uneven load |
| System design flaws | Unreasonable oil circuit design, insufficient pump flow, and large pressure fluctuations |
2. The influence of cylinder crawling
Cylinder crawling will not only reduce the efficiency of the equipment, but may also cause the following problems:
| Scope of influence | specific consequences |
|---|---|
| Equipment accuracy | Processing errors increase and product qualification rate decreases |
| Service life | Accelerated wear of seals and guide components |
| security | Sudden jamming may cause loss of control of the device |
3. Solutions and preventive measures
In response to the problem of oil cylinder crawling, industry experts have recently put forward the following suggestions:
| Solution direction | Specific measures |
|---|---|
| Hydraulic oil management | Regularly replace oil, add defoaming agent, and control oil temperature |
| Machinery maintenance | Check seals, adjust guide mechanism, balance load |
| System optimization | Add accumulators, improve oil circuit design, and select high-response valves |
4. Industry hot spots and case analysis
In the past 10 days, a well-known construction machinery forum reported a typical case: the mold clamping cylinder of a certain model of injection molding machine crawled seriously due to the fact that the hydraulic oil had not been replaced for a long time.Thoroughly clean the oil circuit and replace the high viscosity anti-wear hydraulic oilFinally the problem was solved. In addition, the following topics have become hot topics in recent technical discussions:
| hot topics | focus of discussion |
|---|---|
| Intelligent hydraulic system | How to monitor crawling phenomena in real time through sensors |
| Environmentally friendly hydraulic oil | The improvement effect of bio-based hydraulic oil on crawling phenomenon |
| 5G+remote diagnosis | Using big data to predict oil cylinder crawling risk |
Summary
Cylinder crawling is a fault signal that cannot be ignored in the hydraulic system.Oil quality, mechanical condition, system designComprehensive investigation in three aspects. With the development of intelligence and new material technology, more efficient solutions may emerge in the future. It is recommended that enterprises establish a regular maintenance system and pay attention to the latest technological trends in the industry to improve equipment reliability.
