For controlled straight-line motion in your equipment, opt for this pneumatic guided cylinder from Festo. It's a double-acting device that uses compressed air to drive the rods in both directions. This eliminates the need for a spring-return mechanism and gives you accuracy and reliable repeatability. Thanks to flexible cushioning at both ends, piston blows are absorbed, which cuts down on operational noise and vibration, as well as minimising wear. There are integrated slots in the cylinder body, so you have the option to mount proximity sensors if you need to keep a close eye on positioning.

• Operating range between 1 and 10 bar for safe performance in low-pressure pneumatic setups
• Wrought aluminium alloy housing and high-alloy steel piston rods resist corrosion to boost durability
• Maximum speed of 0.6m/s enables rapid motion
• Option to lubricate the part to reduce friction

• Automotive industry
• Food and beverage production
• Chemical plants
• Packaging facilities

The seals are made of robust NBR material that stands up to solvents and chemicals. This cuts the risk of pressure drop and stops contaminants from getting into your media.
