Product Description

Pneumatic Cylinders /Air cylinder
 
Imagine Pneumatic offers a wide range of pneumatic air cylinders, pneumatic grippers, and common accessories like sensors and mounting equipment. Common pneumatic cylinders follow ISO standards, so that they are globally accepted and can replace other brands using the same standards.

A pneumatic cylinder is a mechanical device that converts compressed air energy into a reciprocating linear motion. A double-acting cylinder uses compressed air to move a piston in and out, while a single-acting cylinder uses compressed air for one-way movement and a return spring for the other. They have numerous accessories, like sensors to detect the position of the piston and different mounting accessories to mount the cylinder or add components to the end of the piston. A wide range of industries requiring linear motion use pneumatic cylinders since they are simple to use and are a cost-efficient solution. They are also referred to as air cylinders.

Pneumatic cylinder working principle
Double-acting pneumatic cylinder
Double-acting pneumatic cylinders are the most common type since they give the user complete control of the piston movement. Figure 3 shows how the piston and piston rod move when compressed air enters the cap-end port and the rod-end port. A negative position is when the piston rod is retracted, and a positive position is when the piston rod is extended. When compressed air enters the cap-end port, it pushes the piston forward (positively), extending the piston rod (shown in Figure 3 A). Air is forced out of the rod-end port. To retract the piston rod, compressed air enters the rod-end port, forcing air out of the cap-end port, and forcing the piston to retract to the negative position (shown in Figure 3 B).

Pneumatic cylinder parts

Figure 2 shows the main components of a double-acting pneumatic cylinder. They are cap-end port (A), tie rod (B), rod-end port (C), piston (D), barrel (E), and piston rod (F). A single-acting cylinder will only have either a cap-end port (A) or a rod-end port (C) and utilize a mechanical spring for the secondary motion. The pneumatic cylinder barrel (E) is sealed on both ends with a head cap and end cap. The compressed air (or spring) moves the piston (D) and subsequently the piston rod (F). The stroke length of a pneumatic cylinder is how far the piston rod can extend.
