Pneumatic cylinders
The choice of the correct cylinder mounting to the structure
and also that of the rod attachment to any moving parts, are as
important as the control of parameters relating to speed, mass and
radial loads. The control of these parameters has to be guaranteed
by the user. The location of position sensors (reed switches),
and their switching response times to magnetic fields, is dependant
upon the type and bore size of cylinder and the appropriate
precautions need to be taken when fixing these items.
(see notes on the pages relative to the sensors).
We do not advise the use of a cylinder application as a shock
absorber or as pneumatic cushioning. If used at the maximum
speed, we recommend gradual deceleration to avoid a violent
impact between piston and the cylinder end cover.
As a general value, we calculate a maximum average speed
of 1 m/sec.
In this case no lubrication is required as the lubrication
introduced during assembly is sufficient to guarantee good operation.
If faster speeds are required, we suggest lubrication in the
quantities described above.
