The Festo ADVU-20-20-P-A is a compact pneumatic cylinder renowned for its reliability and efficiency in a wide range of industrial automation applications. This double-acting cylinder is designed with a 20 mm piston diameter and a 20 mm stroke, making it an ideal choice for applications where space is at a premium and precise movement control is required.

Constructed with high-quality materials, the cylinder features a barrel made from wrought aluminium alloy, ensuring durability and a long service life. The piston rod is crafted from high-alloy stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to wear and corrosion. This robust design is complemented by elastic cushioning rings/pads at both ends, which serve to absorb impact energy in the end positions, thereby enhancing the cylinder's operational smoothness and reducing noise.

The ADVU-20-20-P-A operates within a pressure range of 1 bar to 10 bar and can function in any mounting position, providing flexibility in installation and use. It is also equipped for proximity sensor positioning, allowing for easy integration into automated systems for feedback and control.

This model is suitable for use with compressed air as per ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4] standards, and it can operate with or without oil lubrication, depending on the specific requirements of the application. With an ambient temperature range of -20 °C to 80 °C, the cylinder is capable of performing in a variety of environmental conditions.

The Festo ADVU-20-20-P-A's compact size, combined with its reliable performance, makes it a valuable component in machinery such as small presses, clamping devices, and in handling and positioning systems where precision movement is crucial. Its moderate corrosion resistance class (CRC 2) ensures that it can withstand moderate corrosive stresses, further broadening its applicability across different industries.

Overall, the Festo ADVU-20-20-P-A compact air cylinder is a versatile and reliable choice for businesses looking to optimise their automation processes with components that offer both high performance and compact design.

What are the key features of this compact air cylinder?

The compact air cylinder is known for its small form factor, double-acting operation, and the ability to mount in any position. It has elastic cushioning rings/pads at both ends, an internal thread on the piston rod, and is suitable for proximity sensor positioning. It operates effectively within a pressure range of 1 bar to 10 bar and can be used with compressed air that meets ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4] standards.

Can this cylinder operate with or without lubrication?

Yes, the cylinder can operate with oil lubrication, and it's also possible for it to run without lubrication. However, if it's initially used with oil lubrication, it should continue to be lubricated for the rest of its service life.

What materials are used in the construction of this cylinder?

The cylinder features a high-alloy stainless steel piston rod, dynamic seals made of NBR and TPE-U (PU), and a cylinder barrel crafted from wrought aluminium alloy. The cover material is also wrought aluminium alloy, and the flange screws are made of galvanised steel.

What is the ambient temperature range for the operation of this cylinder?

The cylinder is designed to operate within an ambient temperature range of -20 °C to 80 °C, making it versatile for various industrial environments.

How is the corrosion resistance of this cylinder classified?

The corrosion resistance class (CRC) of this cylinder is classified as CRC 2, which indicates moderate corrosion stress. This means it's suitable for environments with moderate exposure to corrosive elements.

What is the significance of the theoretical force at 6 bar for this cylinder?

The theoretical force at 6 bar provides an indication of the cylinder's power output during operation. At 6 bar, the retracting force is 141 N and the advancing force is 188 N, which helps users understand the potential applications and limitations of the cylinder.

Can this cylinder be used in any mounting position?

Yes, the design of the cylinder allows for versatile mounting options, meaning it can be installed in any position to suit a wide range of application requirements.

What pneumatic connection does this cylinder use?

The cylinder utilises an M5 pneumatic connection, which is a standard size for easy integration into existing pneumatic systems.

Is there a specific type of motion this cylinder is designed for?

This cylinder is designed for double-acting motion, meaning it uses air pressure to move the piston rod in both extending and retracting directions, providing controlled motion for various applications.

What is the impact energy in the end positions for this cylinder?

The impact energy in the end positions for this cylinder is 0.14 J, which is the amount of energy absorbed by the cylinder's cushioning system when the piston reaches the end of its stroke.
