What is a pneumatic slide cylinder?

pneumatic slide cylinder, also known as pneumatic slide cylinder, is a pneumatic actuator that converts the pressure energy of compressed air into mechanical energy to drive the load to perform linear reciprocating motion. It integrates multiple functions such as linear guide rails, limit buffers, and magnetic induction position detection. It has the characteristics of high integration, high precision, and high stability. It is widely used in automated production lines, CNC machine tools, medical equipment, plastic machinery, etc. .

Working principle of pneumatic slide cylinder

The working principle of the pneumatic slide cylinder is based on Pascal's principle, that is, when the liquid or gas in a closed container is acted upon by an external force, its internal pressure will be evenly distributed and transmitted to all parts of the container. When compressed air enters the cylinder through the air inlet, it pushes the piston and load to move linearly along the guide rail; when the exhaust port is opened, the piston and load return to their original positions through the action of springs or air pressure differences. By controlling the opening and closing of the air inlet and exhaust port, the reciprocating motion of the cylinder can be achieved.

pneumatic slide cylinder structure

pneumatic slide cylinder is mainly composed of cylinder block, piston, piston rod, guide rail, limit buffer device, magnetic induction switch and other parts. The cylinder block is the main part of the cylinder, used to accommodate the compressed air and the piston; the piston is connected to the load through the piston rod, converting the pressure energy of the compressed air into mechanical energy; the guide rail ensures that the piston and the load maintain high precision and stability during movement ; The limit buffer device is used to slow down the impact of the piston at the end of its stroke; the magnetic induction switch is used to detect the position of the piston to achieve precise control.

pneumatic slide cylinder types

1. According to structure

pneumatic slide cylinders can be mainly divided into single-acting cylinders and double-acting cylinders. A single-acting cylinder means that the piston moves only through air pressure on one side, and relies on a spring or other external force when returning. This kind of cylinder has a relatively simple structure and low cost. It is suitable for some occasions that do not require high driving force and need to save costs. The double-acting cylinder uses the air pressure on both sides to control the reciprocating motion of the piston respectively. It has greater driving force and more stable performance, and is suitable for occasions with high requirements on driving force and precision.

2. According to the installation method

pneumatic slide cylinders can be divided into fixed and floating types. Fixed cylinders are usually fixed on the equipment through bolts and other fasteners. They have a stable structure and are suitable for some occasions where the position of the cylinder is required to be fixed. The floating cylinder has a certain degree of floating, can adapt to slight deviations in the installation process of the equipment, has a certain degree of adaptability, and is suitable for some occasions that do not require high installation accuracy.

3. Press function

pneumatic slide cylinders are more diverse. The standard cylinder is the most basic type and can meet general automation needs. Buffer-type cylinders use a buffer mechanism to slow down the impact of the piston when the piston reaches its end, protecting the equipment and the cylinder itself and extending its service life. The direction of the pipe connection of the axial take-over type cylinder is consistent with the axis of the cylinder, making it easy to install and maintain. The symmetrical cylinder has a left-right symmetrical structure and is suitable for occasions requiring two-way drive. The cylinder with shock absorber uses a built-in shock absorber to further reduce the vibration and noise during piston movement and improve the stability and reliability of the equipment. The cylinder with terminal locking can fix the piston in a certain position through the locking mechanism when the piston moves to the terminal, preventing it from being displaced due to external force or air pressure fluctuations.

pneumatic slide cylinder specifications

pneumatic slide cylinders have various specifications, including cylinder size, stroke length, working pressure, installation method, buffer form, magnetic induction switch, etc. The cylinder diameter and stroke determine the driving force and movement range of the cylinder; the working pressure determines the output force and movement speed of the cylinder; the installation method and buffer form affect the installation convenience and movement stability of the cylinder; the magnetic induction switch is used to realize the cylinder precise positioning and control. For example, MXQ standard manufacturers can provide pneumatic slide cylinders with different bore diameters from 6mm to 25mm, and stroke lengths from 10mm to 150mm to meet the needs of different industrial applications.
