The Festo SLT-16-30-P-A is a high-precision mini slide designed for double-acting pneumatic operation, offering reliable and efficient linear motion for a variety of automation applications. This compact and robust component features a round piston and piston rod, both crafted from high-alloy stainless steel for durability and performance. The slide is equipped with magnetic sensing capabilities for position detection and utilises ball-bearing guides for smooth and accurate movement.

With its anodised aluminium alloy covers and housing, the SLT-16-30-P-A ensures a high level of corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use in challenging industrial environments. The cushioning with shock absorbers on both ends provides a soft stop, reducing impact and wear, thereby extending the service life of the unit.

The mini slide operates within a pressure range of 1 to 10 bar and can function in ambient temperatures ranging from -20 °C to 60 °C, ensuring versatility across various operating conditions. The air connections are female threaded M5, allowing for easy and secure pneumatic connections.

The effective force generated by the SLT-16-30-P-A at 6 bar is 242 N for advancing motion and 218 N for the return stroke, making it a powerful solution for its size. Additionally, the product is free of copper and PTFE, aligning with environmental and health safety standards.

Ideal for applications requiring precise control and compact size, such as small parts handling, clamping, and positioning tasks, the Festo SLT-16-30-P-A mini slide is a testament to Festo's commitment to quality and innovation in automation technology.
