Product Overview
The MA series stainless steel mini pneumatic cylinders and the MAL series aluminum alloy mini pneumatic cylinders are double-acting linear drive pneumatic components specially designed for small-scale automation applications. They cover bore diameters from 16 to 40 mm, support multiple mounting configurations, feature a cushioning pad design, and operate with compressed air as the working medium. These cylinders can run stably under operating pressures of 1–9.0 MPa and ambient temperatures of 0–70°C, making them widely applicable in linear push-pull, lifting, and positioning control scenarios across various small automated devices.
Operating Principle
- Compressed air enters the rodless chamber of the cylinder through the connecting pipe, driving the piston and piston rod outward;
- When air is supplied in the reverse direction, it enters the rod-side chamber, retracting the piston and piston rod to achieve reciprocating linear motion;
- The cushioning pad at the cylinder end slows down the piston’s movement, reducing terminal impact and noise;
- Multiple mounting options are available, allowing flexible selection based on equipment installation requirements and adapting to different layout configurations.
