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.

Double acting operation

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.

Need a solution for manoeuvring loads through your automated system? This pneumatic piston rod cylinder from Festo gets things going. It moves, lifts and clamps with 1178N of force on the outstroke at 6 bar, making it a smart option for handling heavy-duty equipment. The rugged high-alloy steel piston is capable of withstanding pressures up to 12 bar without breaking a sweat, so it's a reliable workhorse. Rest assured that built-in cushioning on both ends softens the blow of repeated impacts, preventing damage and prolonging your cylinder's service life.

• Robust TPE-U (PU) seals prevent dust and moisture entry to reduce the risk of blockages and corrosion
• Standard G1/4 pneumatic thread makes hooking this component into your existing system a breeze
• Double-acting design delivers two-way operation

• Manufacturing systems
• Packaging facilities
• Food and drink industries
• Agricultural equipment

Yes, you can. Adding a proximity sensor (such as 121-5830) ensures your automated system knows the position of the piston at all times, boosting safety and efficiency.
