pneumatic linear cylinder

Pneumatic linear cylinders are these magic wands you can wave and then push and pull things effectively. Inside a cylinder they move a piston back and forth, using compressed air. This is what makes things go up, down or side to side. They can lift heavy objects, they can push objects on a conveyor belt or they can open and close door.

Pneumatic linear cylinders operate simply. Air gets pushed into the cylinder where it drives the piston in one direction. When the air is released, the piston is propelled back in the other direction. This reciprocating movement makes it very good at doing tasks with a high degree of precision.

The mechanics and applications of pneumatic linear cylinders

There is one major reason to employ pneumatic linear cylinders: They are fast and efficient. They can complete jobs fast and correctly, and they help companies make more products in a shorter period of time. And they are easy to install and maintain, saving businesses money.

Another advantage of pneumatic linear cylinders is that they are more safe. They work through the air — not the oil, which is less hazardous. That’s even more valuable in jobs where safety can be an issue, such as the production of food and medicine.
