Introduction of the cylinder: a cylindrical metal machine that guides the piston to reciprocate linearly in the cylinder. The air in the engine cylinder is expanded to convert thermal energy into mechanical energy; the gas is compressed by the piston in the compressor cylinder to increase the pressure. The casings of turbines, rotary piston engines, etc. are also commonly referred to as "cylinders". Application fields of cylinders: printing (tension control), semiconductor (spot welding machine, chip grinding), automation control, robot, etc.
The working principle of the cylinder: determine the thrust pulling force on the piston rod according to the amount of work required. Therefore, when selecting the cylinder, the output force of the cylinder should be slightly margined. If the cylinder diameter is selected to be small, the output force is enough, the cylinder cannot work normally; but the cylinder diameter is too large, which only makes the equipment bulky costly, but also increases the gas consumption, resulting in waste of energy. In the design of the fixture, the force increasing mechanism should be used as much as possible to reduce the size of the cylinder.
Introduction of sliding table cylinder: Pneumatic sliding table is a linear drive mechanism widely used in the automation industry. It is widely used in the field of machine tools, automation equipment robots. It is generally driven by compressed air, the linear movement of the slider is achieved through the combined transmission of precision balls linear slide rails.
In industrial applications, the pneumatic slide table only needs good rigidity repeatability, its durability, labor-saving characteristics, load capacity are all parameters that are emphasized in design applications. When selecting the sliding table cylinder, pay attention to the factors parameters such as pressure, cylinder diameter, stroke, working environment, rod end connection method, cylinder block fixing method, interface size position, sealing requirements, buffer requirements, installation space restrictions, load, etc. In order to choose the most suitable slide cylinder.
