The compact cylinder is known for its small form factor, which allows it to be used in tight spaces where traditional cylinders cannot fit. It offers double-acting functionality, meaning it can control motion in two directions, and it is designed for durability and reliability in various industrial applications.
Yes, the cylinder can operate using either filtered lubricated or non-lubricated compressed air, providing flexibility depending on the available air supply and application requirements.
The cylinder typically features an aluminium alloy barrel and end caps for a lightweight yet robust construction. The piston rod is usually made from high-alloy steel, ensuring strength and corrosion resistance.
Yes, the cylinder is designed to accommodate proximity sensors for position sensing, which can be used to provide feedback on the cylinder's position for precise control in automated systems.
The standard operating temperature range for this cylinder is typically from -20°C to +80°C, making it suitable for a wide range of environmental conditions found in industrial settings.
The cylinder offers versatile mounting options, including through-hole and threaded mounts, to allow for easy installation in various orientations and configurations.
The maximum operating pressure for this cylinder is generally around 10 bar, but it's important to refer to the specific product documentation for precise pressure ratings.
Yes, there are special variants available that offer features such as increased corrosion resistance or suitability for higher temperature environments. These variants are designed to meet the needs of more demanding or specialised applications.
This type of cylinder is commonly used in automation systems, including assembly lines, packaging machinery, and robotic applications, where precise actuation and control of movement are required.
The correct size and stroke length depend on the specific requirements of your application, such as the space available, the load to be moved, and the distance of travel required. It's essential to calculate these factors to select the appropriate cylinder size and stroke length.
