Product Overview
The SDA series thin pneumatic cylinders are compact linear drive components designed specifically for space-constrained automation applications. They cover cylinder bore sizes from 12 to 100 mm, supporting single-acting extrusion, single-acting retraction, and double-acting configurations. Operating with compressed air as the working medium, they deliver stable performance under standard pressure and temperature conditions, making them ideal for clamping, positioning, and pushing tasks in automated equipment where space is limited.
Operating Principle
- Single-acting extrusion: Air enters the rodless chamber to extend the piston, which returns via a spring; single-acting retraction: Air enters the rod-side chamber to retract the piston, which returns via a spring;
- Double-acting: Air enters the rodless chamber to extend the piston, while air enters the rod-side chamber to retract it, enabling bidirectional linear motion;
- Compact, slim design reduces the cylinder’s axial length, meeting installation requirements in space-constrained equipment;
- Standardized port sizes allow direct connection to small pneumatic tubing, enabling quick air supply and motion control.
Key Advantages and Selling Points
- Full coverage of specifications: Cylinder bores range from 12 mm to 100 mm, compatible with M5×0.8, G1/8", G1/4", and G3/8" ports, meeting diverse thrust and flow requirements;
- Multiple motion modes available: Supports single-acting extrusion, single-acting retraction, and double-acting configurations, catering to both unidirectional and bidirectional drive needs;
- Slim, compact design: Short axial length saves installation space, fitting seamlessly into compact automation layouts;
- Wide operating condition adaptability: Double-acting models operate at pressures of 1.0–9.0 kgf/cm², while single-acting models handle 2.0–9.0 kgf/cm², withstanding up to 10.5 kgf/cm² pressure and functioning within an ambient temperature range of 0–70°C, suitable for most industrial automation scenarios;
- Flexible speed adaptation: Double-acting models support speeds of 30–500 mm/s (small bores), 30–350 mm/s (medium bores), and 30–250 mm/s (large bores); single-acting models offer 100–500 mm/s speeds, accommodating varying equipment cycle times.
