Types Of Pneumatic Cylinders

The pressure energy of compressed gas can be converted into machinery in pneumatic transmission Pneumatic actuator components that can be performed.

Cylinders have two types of reciprocating linear motion and reciprocating swinging. Cylinders that do reciprocating linear motion can be divided into 4 types of single-acting cylinders, double-acting cylinders, diaphragm cylinders and impact cylinders.

① single-Acting cylinder: Only one end has a piston rod, from the piston side of the gas supply polymerization can produce air pressure, air pressure push the piston to produce thrust outstretched, by spring or self-weight return.

② double-acting cylinder: Alternating gas supply from both sides of the piston, output force in one or two directions.

③ Diaphragm cylinder: Replace the piston with a diaphragm, output the force in only one direction, and reset with a spring. Its sealing performance is good, but the itinerary is short.

④ Impact Cylinder: This is a new type of component. It converts the pressure of the compressed gas into the kinetic energy of the piston high speed (10~20 m/s) movement to do the homework.

⑤ without rod pneumatic cylinder: The general name of the cylinder without piston rod. There are two categories of magnetic cylinders and cable cylinders. Do reciprocating swing cylinder called swing cylinder, by the blade will be separated from the inner cavity to two, alternating gas supply to the two cavities, the output shaft for swing movement, swing angle less than 280 °. In addition, there are rotary cylinders, gas-liquid damping cylinders and stepper cylinders.
