Cylinder Body Boring and Heavy-Part Tending | New Partner
Cylinder bodies: deep-hole boring and end-face turning on long tubular parts, port threads and robot tending for heavy parts, with bore straightness checks.
Cylinder body machining and automation
Cylinder body (Hydraulic cylinder body, Pneumatic cylinder body): A tubular part with a long body; bore accuracy and bore surface quality are held to tight requirements. The page runs from what the part is and where it is used, through the machining process and machine selection, to automatic loading, feeding, inspection and the business lines that cover it.
What it is
Cylinder body (Hydraulic cylinder body, Pneumatic cylinder body) belongs to the hydraulic / pneumatic group. A tubular part with a long body; bore accuracy and bore surface quality are held to tight requirements.
Where these parts come from
The industries this type of workpiece appears in; each industry page sets out the machining and automation entry points for its parts.
How the part is machined
The features and operations this structure usually calls for. The sequence actually run is cut to the dimensions and geometric requirements on the drawing.
- Finish boring of the bore, or deep-hole machining
- End-face turning
- Outside diameter
- Port threads and sealing faces
- Burr removal
Machine tools that fit (chosen by structure, not by brand)

Turning of long tubular parts
Machining center
The end-face hole pattern and the ports
How it is loaded and unloaded automatically
The handling method follows from part size and weight, batch size, cycle time, the number of machines and the state the blanks arrive in.
Approach 1
Robot loading and unloading for long, heavy bodies
Approach 2
Gantry robot on a row of machines
Feeding and buffering
Inspection after machining
What this page is, and what it is not
No project case is shown for this part, and that is a statement of position, not an omission.
Product application — this page describes how this family of parts is generally machined and automated. That is manufacturing know-how that applies across the industry, not a description of one order.
Automation fit — the loading, feeding and inspection approaches listed above are options derived from structure, batch size and cycle time. The configuration actually built has to be calculated from the conditions of the project.
Verified project — no public project for this part has customer written authorization, so this page carries no project name, cycle time, output or result figure. For installed systems that are documented, see the shop-floor photos filed by business line: CNC Lathe Loading & Unloading — shop-floor photos and project cases.
Business lines that cover this part

Cylinder body — frequently asked questions
What is the cylinder body?
Cylinder body belongs to the hydraulic / pneumatic group. A tubular part with a long body; bore accuracy and bore surface quality are held to tight requirements.
Where is the cylinder body used?
Commonly seen in these industries: Hydraulic & Pneumatic Parts. The industry pages on this site set out the machining and automation entry points for those workpieces.
How is the cylinder body machined?
The main operations are: Finish boring of the bore, or deep-hole machining; End-face turning; Outside diameter; Port threads and sealing faces; Burr removal. The actual sequence is cut to the dimensions and geometric requirements on the drawing.
Which machine tools are used for the cylinder body?
CNC lathe or turning center — Turning of long tubular parts. Machining center is the alternative: The end-face hole pattern and the ports.
Can the cylinder body be loaded and unloaded automatically?
Yes. The usual approaches are: Robot loading and unloading for long, heavy bodies; Gantry robot on a row of machines. Whether it works depends on part size and weight, cycle time and machine layout, all of which have to be calculated.
How is the cylinder body fed automatically?
Options: Pallets or bins; Conveyor. Feeding capacity is calculated from the parts per layer, the usable number of layers and the machining cycle; no fixed continuous running time is promised.
How is the cylinder body inspected after machining?
Checks usually applied: Bore size and straightness; End faces and port openings; Appearance. Precision dimensional measurement needs dedicated measuring equipment and has different limits from vision inspection.
How is automation for the cylinder body planned?
Start from the part, not from a robot model: confirm the structure and the clamping datum first, then choose the machine combination and the automation method from batch size and cycle time, and finally check that feeding, buffering, inspection and safety interlocks form a closed loop.
