Description
At 6 bar the DFM-12-40-P-A-GF-F1A turns a theoretical 68 N into a guided linear motion over 40 mm, with a 12 mm piston.
Benefits
- Plain-bearing guide: guide rods in plain bearings, transverse force Fy up to 240 N
- Force: 68 N advance and 51 N return at 6 bar (theoretical)
- Moments: Mx up to 4.92 Nm, My/Mz up to 3.74 Nm
- Cleanroom and PWIS: class 6 to ISO 14644-1, PWIS-free to VDMA24364-B1/B2-L
- Cushioning: elastic cushioning rings at both ends, impact energy up to 0.07 J
- Battery production: reduced Cu/Zn/Ni content (F1a)
Applications
The DFM-12-40-P-A-GF-F1A suits lifting, stopping and pushing tasks in conveyor systems and fixture building. The DFM-12-40-P-A-GF-F1A runs on compressed air to ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4] at -20 to 80 °C ambient temperature and can be mounted in any position. Documented for this 40 mm stroke version: cleanroom class 6 to ISO 14644-1 and reduced Cu/Zn/Ni content for lithium-ion battery production (F1a).
