Choose by motion job

Start with the motion the actuator must make.

Pick the closest actuator use case, then confirm bore, stroke, load, mounting, pressure, speed, and space constraints before RFQ.

Scenario 01

Move parts across a wide machine span.

Choose a rodless cylinder when a standard rod cylinder would become too long after extension or create rod sag risk.

Recommended option

Mechanically coupled rodless cylinder with stroke, load, speed, and cushion review.

  • Effective stroke
  • Moving mass
  • Horizontal or vertical mount
  • End-stop energy

Category FAQ

Common questions before sending an inquiry.

01Rodless Pneumatic CylindersWhen should I choose a rodless cylinder instead of a standard cylinder?

Use a rodless cylinder when the required stroke is long and the machine cannot reserve space for an extended piston rod. It is also useful when rod bending or guarding becomes a concern.

02Rodless Pneumatic CylindersWhat details are most important for a rodless cylinder RFQ?

Stroke, bore or force target, moving load, mounting direction, guide requirement, speed, cushion need, and any existing model code are the most useful starting details.

03Rodless Pneumatic CylindersCan Bepto Pneumatic review DGC, OSP-P, MY1, or MY2 replacement requests?

Yes. Bepto Pneumatic can review old rodless cylinder model codes, photos, drawings, mounting dimensions, and application notes to support replacement or alternative selection.
