Product Design

Schoolhill Hydraulic Engineering specialises in the design of a wide variety of hydraulic cylinders, mainly for harsh environments and deepwater applications. Products also include a wide range of stainless steel valves.

We are experienced in fulfilling bespoke requirements for specific applications, particularly where the standard ranges from larger manufacturers do not meet clients’ requirements. In recent years, we have experienced a growth in demand for specialist valves for subsea controls.

Another of our specialist areas is the design of mechanical handling equipment. Schoolhill Hydraulic Engineering has designed lifting equipment with DNV certification for the remote release of offshore containers, subsea valve handling frames, onshore pipe handling, descaling systems for oilfield tubulars and swaging machines for premium threaded connections.

The company also has a strong track record in the design of machinery for the global alcoholic drinks industry’s wooden barrel operations. Having worked with the sector for many years, Schoolhill Hydraulic Engineering is experienced in designing equipment to reduce manual handling and improve efficiencies in cooperage operations and distillery warehouses.
