Contents Introduction Pneumatic actuators include linear cylinders and rotary actuators. They are devices providing power and motion to automated systems, machines and processes. A pneumatic cylinder is a simple, low cost, easy to install device that is ideal for producing powerful linear movement. Speed can be adjusted over a wide range. A cylinder can be stalled without damage. Introduction Adverse conditions can be easily tolerated such as high humidity, dry and dusty environments and cleaning down with a hose. The bore of a cylinder determines the maximum force that it can exert. The stroke of a cylinder determines the maximum linear movement that it can produce. The maximum working pressure depends on the cylinder design. VDMA cylinders work up to 16 bar. Thrust is controllable through a pressure regulator. Basic Construction Fundamental designs Pneumatic actuators are made in a wide variety of sizes, styles and types including the following Single acting with and without spring return Double acting Non cushioned and fixed cushioned Adjustable cushioned Magnetic Rodless Rotary Clamping Bellows Single acting spring return Single acting no spring Gravity or other external force to return the rod Double acting Double acting cylinders use compressed air to power both the outstroke and instroke. Superior speed control is possible There are Non-cushioned types Fixed cushioned types Adjustable cushioned types Double acting non-cushioned Non cushioned cylinders are suitable for full stroke working at slow speed. Higher speeds with external cushions Double acting fixed cushions Small bore light duty cylinders have fixed cushions D/A adjustable cushions progressively slows the piston rod down over the last part of stroke Double acting magnetic A magnetic band around the circumference of the piston operates reed switches to indicate positions of stroke. Rodless cylinders Contain the movement produced within the same overall length taken up by the cylinder body. For ex
