A brief description of the types and selection of pneumatic cylinders

 

In terms of function (compared to the design situation), there are many types, such as standard pneumatic cylinders, free-mounted pneumatic cylinders, thin pneumatic cylinders, pen-shaped pneumatic cylinders, double-axis pneumatic cylinders, three-axis pneumatic cylinders, slide pneumatic cylinders, rodless pneumatic cylinders, rotary pneumatic cylinders, Gripper pneumatic cylinders, etc. These types of pneumatic cylinders are more commonly used.
In terms of action, it is divided into single effect and double effect. The former is divided into spring back (the pneumatic cylinder is extended by air pressure, and retracted by the elastic force of the spring) and pressed out (the pneumatic cylinder is retracted by air pressure, and the extension There are two types of pneumatic cylinders, which are generally used for short strokes and low requirements for output force and movement speed (low price and low energy consumption), and dual-effect pneumatic cylinders (both pneumatic cylinders are extended and retracted by air pressure) pressure) is more widely used.
Characteristics of commonly used pneumatic cylinders:
Standard pneumatic cylinder: If we take the standard pneumatic cylinder as the standard, the standard pneumatic cylinder itself is square in shape and relatively large in volume.
Freely installed pneumatic cylinder: From the name point of view, there are many ways to install, more comfortable, and smaller.
Thin pneumatic cylinder: relatively thin, moderate volume.
Pen-shaped pneumatic cylinder: The shape is round like a pen, and the volume is relatively small.
Double-shaft pneumatic cylinder: with two output shafts, the output force is twice that of a single-shaft pneumatic cylinder, and the output shaft will shake slightly.
Three-axis pneumatic cylinder: There is a force output shaft, and the other two shafts are guide shafts, but there is also shaking.
Sliding table pneumatic cylinder: The sliding table pneumatic cylinder has high precision, generally composed of one output shaft with two guide rails, with high precision.
Rodless pneumatic cylinder: Compared with other pneumatic cylinders, under the same length, the stroke of the rodless pneumatic cylinder is twice that of other pneumatic cylinders, the operation is single-axis, the volume is relatively small, and the space is saved.
Rotary pneumatic cylinder: The output motion is rotary motion, and the rotation point of view is generally between 0-200 degrees.
Gripper Pneumatic cylinder: Gripper pneumatic cylinder is the action of output and the action of clamping and opening.
Moreover, we have a lot of Aluminum Cylinder Tube for make pneumatic cylinder, also we can offer piston rod, Pneumatic Air Cylinder Kits etc.
