Festo DSBC series pneumatic cylinders with adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends of the actuator barrel. Featuring a high-alloy steel piston rod provides excellent running performance, low overall weight and long service life. These double acting pneumatic actuators have dual connection ports for compressed air to be applied for advancing and retracting the piston rod in a linear motion. Magnetic piston rods allow contactless position detection via a proximity sensor mounted in slots along the cylinder body.

The DSBC PPV type adjustable cushioning pneumatic cylinders are equipped with a special cushioning piston as an extension to the main piston. This pneumatic cushioning builds up an air cushion to absorb energy in the end positions, building up and exhausting air in a targeted fashion.. This energy absorbing method makes these cylinders ideal for medium to heavy loads and high speed applications.

The DSBC series pneumatic round actuators conform to ISO 15552 standards allowing them to be mounted in any position to suit the required application. The ISO 15552 standard establishes metric mounting dimensions for cylinders providing interchangeability of commonly used hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. Optional mounting accessories provide further flexibility allowing the cylinder to be attached with a swivel bracket for free movement, foot mounted for support under high loads or combined with other actuators to give a wider range of movement.

Generate linear motion in your industrial setup with this pneumatic piston rod cylinder from Festo. As its barrel's made from anodised aluminium alloy, it rolls with the punches in harsh environments to deliver long-lasting performance. Thanks to adjustable PPV cushioning that softens the blows from heavy loads, its end positions only experience 1.8J of impact energy, minimising wear and tear. Strong TPE-U seals keep contaminants out and prevent leaks, so maintaining system air pressure isn't a problem. The cylinder functions in operating pressures up to 12 bar, so it's ideal for positioning and clamping tasks.

• Light 2.7kg weight means it doesn't add excess load to your setup
• Advance stroke force up to 3016N can power demanding applications
• Double-action design gives accurate two-way air control for effective system management

• Textile industry
• Industrial automation
• Pulp and paper mills

This cylinder has dimensions of 517.6 (L) x 93 (W) x 93mm (H), so it's an ideal option for use in setups where there's not an inch to spare.
