Classification Of Pneumatic Actuators
All pneumatic actuators can be subdivided into the
following types:
diaphragm pneumatic actuators;
pneumatic power cylinders;
gas-engine pneumatic actuators;
turbine pneumatic actuators;
jet pneumatic actuators;
pneumomuscles;
combined pneumatic actuators.

Pneumatic Power Cylinders

As compressed air moves into the
cylinder, it pushes the piston along
the length of the cylinder.
Compressed air or the spring,
located at the rod end of the
cylinder, pushes the piston back.
Pneumatic Power Cylinders
A double acting pneumatic cylinder has twodirected powered motion, with pressure on
both sides.

Optimal range
•Good running performance and long service
life thanks to smooth, hard cylinder bore
•Piston rod and cylinder barrel made of
stainless steel
More than the standard
•Round cylinders with piston diameters from
8 to 25 mm conform to ISO 6432, DIN ISO
6432. Variants are based on these standards.
The series is not repairable.
•The cap is swaged onto the barrel.
Functional
Three different end caps mean numerous
functional and spacesaving designs
Variants
•Non-rotating
•Through piston rod
•With or without position sensing
•Cushioning non-adjustable at either end or cushioning adjustable at both ends
•Further piston rod variants

The piston rods are
connected with the
same piston.
Double-rod
cylinders provide
equal force and
speed in both
directions.

protruding tubing and

harmful accumulation of
contaminants

as well as automatic operation

via flange-mounted solenoid
valve with port pattern to Namur,
or via valve terminals with a
choice of 30 different fieldbus

design

Ideal for vertical use
The ZSC series is available in five sizes
with piston diameters of 6 to 25 mm and
strokes from 10 to 100 mm (in 10 mm
increments). The mini slides operate at a
speed between 0.05 to 0.5 m/s (0.16 to
1.6 ft/s) at an operating pressure of 1.5 to
7 bar (22 to 102 psi).

The GPC series is ideal for
all applications that demand
absolute precision and side
load capacity. Compared to
standard cylinders, cylinders
from this series offer
extremely
precise movement, high
side load capacities, and
also torsion protection.
This results in fewer outer
guides to design and set up
machines.

Tandem cylinders ADVUT
15
By connecting 2, 3 or 4 cylinders with the
same piston diameter and stroke in series,
the force in the advance stroke (thrust) can
be doubled, tripled or quadrupled in
comparison to a single cylinder.
• A maximum of 4 cylinders can be combined.
• The internal distribution of compressed air means
that only 2 connections are required to pressurise
all cylinders.
• The force in the return stroke corresponds to that
of a single cylinder with corresponding piston
diameter.

Shock influence is required in a number of technological operations, such as
punching, marking, punching of holes. In this case we use shot
pneumocylinders.

In technological operations
when the executive
mechanism is, for example,
the cutting tool or a gearshift,
it is necessary to establish
two and more fixed positions,
multiposition
pneumocylinders or
pneumatic positioners are
used.

Advantages and disadvantages
Advantages:
•simplicity of realization relatively
to small back and forth motions;
•sophisticated transfer
mechanisms are not required
•low cost
•high speed of moving
•ease at reversion movements
•tolerance to overloads, up to a
full stop.
•high reliability of work
•explosion and fire safety
•ecological purity
•ability to accumulation and
transportation
29
Disadvantages:
•compressibility of the air
•impossibility to receive uniform and
constant speed of the working bodies
movement
•difficulties in performance at slow
speed
•limited conditions – use of
compressed air is beneficial up to the
definite values of pressure (the cost
of compressed air productior
increases sharply when the pressure
in the system exceeds 8…10 bar)
•compressed air requires good
preparation (the air should be cleared
of mechanical impurity and should be
free of moisture)

Advantages and Disadvantages
48
Variable hydraulic actuators are widely used as
drives of machine tools, rolling mills, pressing and
the foundry equipment, road and building machines,
transport and agricultural machines, etc. A number of
advantages in comparison with mechanical and
electric transfers explains such their wide application:
•infinitely variable control of gear-ratio in a wide
range and an opportunity to create the big reduction
ratio;
•small specific weight, i.e. the weight of a
hydroactuator is in ratio to transmitted capacity
(0,2...0,3 kg / kWt);
•opportunity of simple and reliable protection of the
engine from overloads;
•small sluggishness of the rotating parts, providing
fast change of operating modes (start-up, dispersal,
a reverser, a stop);
•simplicity of transformation of rotary movement into
reciprocating one;
•opportunity of positioning a hydraulic engine on
removal(distance) from an energy source and
freedom in making configuration.
It is also necessary to reckon with
disadvantages of hydraulic
actuators:
•Efficiency of a volumetric hydraulic
actuator is a little bit lower, than
efficiency of mechanical and electric
transfers, and during regulation it is
reduced;
•conditions of operation of a
hydraulic actuator (temperature)
influence its characteristics;
•Efficiency of a hydraulic actuator is
a little reduced in the process of
exhaustion of its resource owing to
the increase in backlashes and the
increase of outflow of liquid (falling
of volumetric efficiency);
•sensitivity to pollution of working
liquid and necessity of high culture
service.
