“However, during our initial discussions, we were able to suggest some minor adjustments that enabled us to reduce the total number of different cylinders required. “Originally TrungNam had specified different hydraulic cylinders to meet the unique specifications of each gate,” said Frank Maas, Senior Manager Cylinder Sales, Bosch Rexroth. Due to the many different gates, a wide variety of cylinder sizes is needed.
The cylinders will be used for gates and ship locks which, along with an 8 km dike along the Saigon River, are expected to tackle flooding for an area of 570 km2. The 94 hydraulic cylinders fulfil a single order made by TrungNam covering 8 separate projects that make up the HCMC flood protection plan. Together with being able to deliver high quality products within a tight deadline, Rexroth’s pro-active international cooperation with project partners, multi-team coordination skills, and the ability to provide local support from their HCMC office helped to secure this significant civil engineering project.
The cylinder order covers a wide range of sizes and Bosch Rexroth will be supplying them over a very short time period, from November 2017 to March/April 2018. When completed, this network of storm surge barriers will help provide protection for the city’s population of 6.5 million. This equipment will be used in 8 projects in the extensive Ho Chi Minh City flood protection plan.

In June 2017 Bosch Rexroth received a drawing approval for production of 94 hydraulic cylinders, plus all components for 36 hydraulic power units for use in civil engineering works in Vietnam.
