To keep loads moving in a linear direction, put this pneumatic guided cylinder from Festo in charge. It's a double-acting device with two open ports that let compressed air flow in and out. The force of this air drives the piston back and forth without the need for a spring return, so it's efficient and accurate. You can mount the unit in any position and put it to work handling high-load applications like clamping, stopping and lifting, so it's a versatile piece of kit.

• G1/8 threaded pneumatic connection for hassle-free mounting
• Maximum speed of 0.8m/s delivers rapid piston operation
• Lubricated operation is possible for smoother movement
• Robust NBR seals prevent air leakage and resist petroleum and crude oils
• Weighs just 3.5kg, making it easy to handle

• HVAC systems
• Conveyor belts
• Printing presses
• Water treatment facilities

With a broad operating temperature range between -20°C and +80°C, this cylinder is tough enough for challenging workplaces.

This cylinder has integrated slots in its body that accommodate proximity sensors to detect the position of the piston.
