Compact guide cylinder with plain bearings, double-acting, 12 mm bore, 20 mm stroke, magnetic piston - E.MC

This compact guide cylinder with a 12 mm bore and 20 mm stroke lifts, pushes and stops small parts without loading the piston rod sideways. Two guide rods running in plain bearings carry the end plate and hold it within ±0.10° non-rotating accuracy. The short stroke keeps the installed height low, for example for stoppers and clamps.

Advantages

• Brass plain bearings with a self-lubricating bronze powder bearing, no relubrication of the guide
• Permissible lateral load 33 N and 0.79 Nm torque at the end plate at 20 mm stroke
• Rubber bumpers in both end positions, piston speed 30 to 500 mm/s
• Air port M5 at the side or from below, the unused one is closed with a plug

Applications

• Lifting units in pick-and-place modules with small grippers
• Pushing parts out of feeders
• Stoppers and separators on small-part transfer conveyors

Accessories and spare parts

A repair kit for guide cylinders with a 12 mm bore is available separately. For end position sensing via the magnetic piston, E.MC offers matching cylinder switches.
