Description
The double-acting mini slide DGST-16-40-Y12A from the Festo DGST series combines drive and guide: the slide travels 40 mm and takes transverse forces of up to 880 N. Inside the housing, two pistons of 16 mm diameter each act in parallel on the yoke.
Benefits
- End position cushioning: external hydraulic cushioning, permissible impact energy 0.85 J
- Recirculating ball bearing guide for transverse forces up to 880 N and torques Mx 11.3 Nm, My 8 Nm, Mz 8 Nm
- Travel speed up to 0.5 m/s
- Repetition accuracy ≤ 0.02 mm for reproducible end positions
- End position range adjustable over 15.9 mm at the front and 16.2 mm at the rear
- Theoretical force at 6 bar: 241 N advance, 207 N return
Applications
As a compact linear axis, the DGST-16-40-Y12A works in feeding technology and small parts assembly. Compressed air to ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4], 1 to 8 bar, port M5. End positions can be sensed with proximity switches.
