The types and characteristics of cylinders mainly include the following:
Mini cylinder (also known as pen shaped cylinder, miniature cylinder): This type of cylinder has a compact structure, occupies a small space, and is suitable for high-frequency usage requirements. It is commonly used in industries such as electronics, medical, and packaging machinery.
Standard cylinder: The piston can move forward or backward, output thrust or tension, has a simple structure, and the stroke can be selected according to needs.
Needle type cylinder: It can be directly embedded in the main body of the mechanism or installed on the panel, greatly reducing the installation space and suitable for small mechanisms.
Blocking cylinder: mainly used for stopping pallets on production lines, with a fixed working stroke, also known as stopping cylinder or blocking cylinder.
Thin cylinder: compact structure, light weight, small footprint, suitable for various fixtures and specialized equipment, requiring the use of guiding elements.
Free installation type cylinder: Short stroke, can be fixed from multiple directions, suitable for various installation methods.
Dual axis cylinder: With two piston rods, it has high stability and is suitable for situations where it needs to withstand large lateral forces or requires high motion accuracy.
Guide rod cylinder: With a compact structure and built-in guiding function, it is suitable for blocking, feeding, pushing, stamping, clamping and other occasions.
Sliding table cylinder: compact structure, high guiding accuracy, strong load capacity, suitable for automation production lines, mechanical processing and other fields.
Rod free cylinder: Without a rigid piston rod, it uses the piston to directly or indirectly achieve reciprocating motion, suitable for situations with small cylinder diameters and long strokes.
Pneumatic gripper (also known as pneumatic gripper): used for grasping and transporting objects, with various shapes, suitable for pneumatic robotic arms in automation equipment.
These cylinder types have their own characteristics and are suitable for different industrial automation scenarios, meeting the needs of various precision controls and efficient operations.
