Compact cylinder

07 April, 2009 | Supplied by: Metal Work Pneumatic Australia Pty Ltd

The Two-Flat version of Metal Work Pneumatic’s Compact and ISO/VDMA cylinders is now available. The Two-Flat cylinder uses a piston rod with two longitudinal flat surfaces that is guided by a matching, sintered-bronze bush to stop rotation. This means that anything fixed to the rod will not rotate and it will resist any torque applied within the limits specified. A special polyurethane seal prevents the accumulation of dirt.

When available space is at a premium, as is often the case on machines and in control cabinets, the ability to source a compact, fully centralised, serial controlled valve manifold is essential. The EX250 serial interface provides a compact solution and can use either of the proven SV and VQC series of valves that are available in a number of sizes and flow rates. The EX250 is easily configured with digital input and digital output modules to suit additional control requirements and supports many serial protocols including ethernet, EtherCat, Profibus, DeviceNet, AS-i and Modbus. The EX250 has an IP67 enclosure rating as standard for those wet and dusty areas, which also makes it suitable for out-of-cabinet installation.
