Description
The Airtec ZX-40-K-0400-02 is a double-acting rodless pneumatic cylinder with a 40 mm piston diameter and 400 mm stroke. Without stroke the short version is 190 mm long instead of 300 mm for the standard cylinder. The stroke lies entirely within the cylinder length, as no piston rod extends.
All six ports are located in one end cap. Ports U-V-W move the carrier in one direction, X-Y-Z in the other. Four blanking plugs are included.
Benefits
- Adjustable end-position cushioning at both ends with a cushioning length of 36 mm.
- Position sensing for contactless position detection with cylinder switches in the T-slots.
- No extending piston rod, the space required equals the overall length of 590 mm.
Applications
Driving external guides via a floating bridge that compensates misalignment between cylinder and guide.
