How They Work
Rodless cylinders provide an efficient and compact solution for automation applications. Their operation is based on an internal piston that moves within the cylinder, driven by compressed air. The piston is connected to a support or carriage that carries the load and moves along with it.
Applications
Rodless cylinders find wide application across various industrial sectors. These devices are particularly useful in environments where space is limited, as their design does not include a rod extending from the cylinder body. In industrial automation, they are common in packaging industries, allowing precise control of positioning and managing the accurate placement of materials and products. In sectors such as robotics and precision automation, rodless cylinders provide the necessary movement for delicate tasks while maintaining a compact footprint. In the automotive industry, they are used for a variety of applications, from assembling small components to controlled movements on production lines. Additionally, because of their ability to handle high loads, they are employed in heavy machinery and metalworking equipment. Finally, their robust design and resistance to moment forces make them suitable for applications in sectors such as material handling and motion control equipment, where both strength and precision are required.
Advantages: Maximum Power in Minimal Space
These cylinders offer several advantages in modern production systems and machinery. One of the main benefits is their reduced footprint relative to a similar stroke length, making them ideal for limited spaces. Additionally, they can support high loads and moment forces. Another key aspect is that, being constructed without a rod, they eliminate the risk of bending or breaking, ensuring greater reliability. These cylinders are designed to provide the same force in both directions, further increasing their versatility.
