HYCO Alabama was 100% taken over by the Montanhydraulik group in 2017.

For many decades already, HYCO Alabama has been amongst the world’s leading providers in the area of hydraulic cylinders. The company specialises in the development and production of customer-specific hydraulic cylinders as well as in a large number of application areas.

HYCO Alabama concentrates on the manufacture of high-performance hydraulic cylinders, designed either as one-step differential cylinders or as multi-step telescopic cylinders. The welded cylinder design is preferred in mobile hydraulic applications, as well as in heavy industrial machinery, although it is also used in a large number of other industrial sectors. For the manufacture of the finalised products, HYCO Alabama uses a large number of different robot and CNC supported manufacturing processes.

Hydraulic cylinders from HYCO are renowned for their high performance and their application-specific functionality, and so seals, piston coatings, and surface finishes are always adapted to the respective area of application. In addition, HYCO Alabama is characterised by its relationships over many years with many leading multinational OEMs.
