Actuators

Air cylinders and pneumatic actuators can support automation by enhancing productivity, increasing throughput, and improving worker safety.  The 25A- series variations are designed using materials compatible with secondary battery applications, and are able to be used in low dew point environments.  These actuators range from linear, guided, rodless, locking, clamp, and stopper styles, and are available with inch and metric dimensions, and as NFPA and ISO Standards.  The line also includes related products such as shock absorbers and joints, also compatible with secondary battery applications.

Compact Cylinder
Compact cylinders are condensed versions of basic pneumatic cylinders ideal for cylinder applications where saving space and energy is a concern.  They are used to provide straight-line, in/out linear movement for a variety of applications. The 25A- series variations are designed using material compatible with secondary battery applications and are able to be used in…
Rodless Cylinders/Table Cylinders
Rodless cylinder differ from basic air cylinders in that no piston rod extends outside the cylinder body.  Instead, the internal piston is connected to an external carriage, by means of a magnetic or mechanical coupling system. The 25A- series variations are designed using material compatible with secondary battery applications and are able to be used…
Compact Guide Cylinders
Compact guide cylinders incorporate compact cylinders with linear guides.  These are ideal for guided cylinder applications where saving space and energy is a concern.  Guided cylinders utilize guide rods mounted parallel to the piston rod to provide stable, non-rotating, high side load performance. The 25A- series variations are designed using material compatible with secondary battery…
Sensors/Auto Switches
Industrial sensors and switches, sometimes referred to as transducers, installed in the factory automation space can provide essential machine feedback.  They can monitor On/Off status, confirm operation within an optimal range, or measure real time operation e.g. pressure or flow. Industrial sensors and switches can connect to a PLC or other central controller via fieldbus…
Air Cylinder
Basic linear air cylinders are used to provide straight-line, in/out linear movement for a variety of applications.  Available as single acting (spring extend or spring return actuators) and double acting styles with single rod or double rod configurations, non-rotating, and precision non-rotating models. Actuator body styles include crimped, round, or tie rod.  Single acting air…
Guide Cylinder
Guided cylinders utilize guide rods mounted parallel to the piston rod to provide stable, non-rotating, high side load performance.  SMC offers dual rod, heavy duty, and precision actuator models.  Like rodless cylinders, SMC guide rod cylinders reduce rod bending, piston bending, and uneven seal wear.  Low profile guided actuator series are available for restrictive space…
Cylinders with Lock/Heavy Duty Stopper Cylinders
Cylinders with lock and heavy-duty stopper cylinders are ideal for drop prevention applications in which air pressure can be lost, or for use on conveyor lines or other applications requiring an external stopping device. The 25A- series variations are designed using material compatible with secondary battery applications and are able to be used in low…
