Innovation and customisation for waste management and handling
For over fifty years, Rima Spa has been a leader in the design and production of customised components for movement, stabilisation, and rotation, supporting manufacturers of machinery in the green economy, lifting, construction, logistics, and agriculture sectors with reliable and high-performance solutions.
In this article, we focus on hydraulic cylinders, designed to meet the needs of waste collection, transport and compaction, ensuring efficiency, safety, and durability. In the green economy industry, our expertise extends to the supply of hydraulic stabilisers, ball-bearing turntables, and slewing rings for waste treatment, wastewater management, and renewable energy production.
Hydraulic cylinders for compactors, presses, loaders and skip loaders
One of our key strengths is the ability to customise cylinders to meet the specific needs of our customers. Machinery used in the waste management sector must comply with strict construction and safety standards, while operating in extreme environments, exposed to weather conditions, corrosive substances, and heavy mechanical stress.
For this reason, we develop bespoke hydraulic cylinders, customising materials, surface treatments, sizes, and sealing systems to ensure optimal performance and long operational life.
Our cylinders are used in a wide range of applications, including:
- Compactors and stationary presses, where cylinders provide a constant and controlled force for waste collection and compaction.
- Waste handling loaders and cranes, which require robust and reliable cylinders for the safe handling of various materials.
- Skip loaders, with cylinders designed to optimise operational efficiency and ensure smooth and precise movements.
Advanced and customised technical solutions from Rima
Thanks to our technical expertise and consultative approach, we design single- and double-acting hydraulic cylinders, integrating innovative technologies to enhance performance and operational efficiency. Some of the solutions developed by Rima include:
- Cylinders with integrated sensors, which monitor position and operation for smart machine management.
- Cylinders with front and rear braking systems, designed to slow down opening and closing, reducing noise pollution during waste collection and handling.
- Stabilising cylinders, essential for ensuring machine stability and safety.
- High-resistance surface treatments, carried out in-house according to customer specifications, ensuring protection against weather conditions, chemicals, and harsh environments.
Continuous support and assistance
Our added value lies not only in the quality of our products but also in the technical and commercial support we provide to our customers.
Our technical sales consultants work closely with machinery manufacturers to identify the best solutions in terms of performance, durability, and ease of integration. Thanks to our strong collaboration with our technical department, we design cylinders that optimise space, improve efficiency, and simplify installation and maintenance.
