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.

Category FAQ

Common questions before sending an inquiry.

01Pneumatic Slide CylindersWhen should I use a slide cylinder instead of a compact cylinder?

Use a slide cylinder when the load needs guided table movement, anti-rotation support, or better moment-load handling than a basic compact cylinder provides.

02Pneumatic Slide CylindersWhat is the key selection detail for a pneumatic slide?

The key detail is not just bore and stroke. Load weight, center of gravity, overhang, guide type, and allowable moment are equally important.

03Pneumatic Slide CylindersCan slide cylinders be used with grippers?

Yes. They are often used with pneumatic grippers or suction cups, but the tool weight and overhang must be checked.
