Rotary Clamping Air Cylinders

16 mm and 32 mm Bore Size

16 mm and 32 mm Bore Size

Clamp items in place to complete a step in your manufacturing process. These air cylinders rotate while actuating, so you can position, assemble, and inspect items. The body of these air cylinders has threaded through-holes on the face and sides, so you can mount them directly to equipment and thread accessories on. The rod is internally threaded, allowing you to attach an arm as needed for your application.

The piston is magnetic, so you can use these slides with sensors (not included) to activate relays and controllers. When the piston moves past a sensor, the sensor activates. You can use multiple sensors—one for each action you want to trigger.

Flexible-Mount Air Cylinders

Threaded through-holes in each corner allow you to mount these cylinders directly to equipment or mount with attachments (not included). All have a magnetic piston so you can use them with sensors (not included) to activate relays and controllers.

Nonrotating cylinders have two parallel piston rods that prevent twisting as they extend and retract.

Locking Air Slides

Prevent sudden drops while raising and lowering grippers and other pick-and-place equipment. A safety end lock engages when air pressure is lost, stopping loads from falling or slamming against the air slide. The air slide guide rods keep the head from twisting as it extends and retracts for steadier motion than air cylinders. These air slides also have a larger mounting surface area compared to air cylinders, so you can mount or push larger items at the end of the slide.

The piston is magnetic, so it can activate relays and controllers when used with a sensor (sold separately). When the piston moves past the sensor, the sensor activates. You can use multiple sensors—attach one for each action to trigger.

Double-Ended Air Slides

Push one object while pulling another—when one head on these air slides extends, the other retracts. Often used in pick-and-place systems across two surfaces, such as parallel conveyors, they can take the place of two standard air slides. With guide rods that keep the heads from twisting, they move more steadily than air cylinders. They also have a larger mounting area.

The piston is magnetic, so you can use these slides with sensors (sold separately) to activate relays and controllers. When the piston moves past a sensor, the sensor activates. You can use multiple sensors—one for each action you want to trigger.
