A rodless cylinder is a pneumatic device capable of moving a load in a linear path

with compressed air. But the load moves directly with the piston through a link block thatmoves with the piston.
When the stroke of the cylinder is overlong, the use of a cylinder with a piston rod easily causes the piston rod to bend and deform. Therefore, a piston ess cylinder is oftenused to solve this problem. The occasions where travel and installation space are restricted; for example, pushing in and moving work pieces, opening and closing of mechanisms, lifting of objects, door control, and material conveyance.

They do not have the cylinder piston rods as ordinary cylinders, but use the pistons to directly or indirectly connect the internal actuators, and then the pistons perform directlyor indirectly to realize linear motion of the objects. This kind of cylinder has the biggest advantages of simple structure and saving installation space, and is especially suitable for the occasions of small stroke and long stroke.

Selection consideration
The following criteria should be considered while selecting a rodless cylinder:
Stroke speed: This is the speed at which the piston moves within the cylinder. This would depend upon the air pressure supplied at each port and the load.
Carrier Load: The carrier must be able to support and move the mounted load safely and efficiently and align the rod axis with the load and direction of movement when connecting Dead length: Ensure sufficient space for installing maintenance activities.
Stoke: Use the product within the limits of the maximum usable stroke. The piston rod will be damaged if operated beyond the maximum stroke.

Hydraulic Shock Absorbers Used In Automation Machinery

They are widely used in automation equipment, vehicles, various tools, etc.

The hydraulic shock absorber can effectively absorb the vibration and noise generated by high-speed movement, convert kinetic energy into heat energy and release it in the atmosphere.The object is stopped smoothly and effectively in one action.This article mainly introduces the hydraulic shock absorbers which are used in automation machinery.
In the past, many manufacturers only used PU glue, springs, etc. as buffers to save costs, but the effect is not satisfied, the noise remains the same, and the efficiency cannot be improved.Choosing the hydraulic shock sbsorber will effectively solve the disadvantages of poor buffering. In the automated machinery, vibration and noise can be reduced,the object is balanced and effectively stopped; the efficiency of the machine is increased,the life of the machine is extended and the maintenance cost is reduced.

What's the Hydraulic Shock Absorbers?

All hydraulic shock absorbers is a kind of device which converting kinetic energy (movement) into thermic energy (heat) and release it in the atmosphere, meanwhile to insure the work

piece stop or decelerate to a certain speed with minimum load rebound,minimum shock to the load, and minimum shock to surrounding equipment.For that purpose, fluid in the shock absorber is forced to flow through restricted outlets and valve systems, thus generating hydraulic resistance.

AC series Hydraulic Shock Absorber The smart and compact design enable the ability to be installed in the narrow space. Full thread of the outer barrel make it easy to be adjusted. It is an ideal product of both absorbing shock energy and making the optimum soft stop. It plays a key part of reducing machines’ wearing away. Lightening maintaining time, extending using time.

One-hole damping structure and multi-hole buffering structure are available for your selection according to your requirements. Full threaded barrel is flexible for installation and debugging.

What’s the Adjustable Hydraulic Speed Stabilizer or Hydraulic Speed Damper

It’s another kind of hydraulic shock absorber. Compared with the commons style, it not only

functions as a buffer, but also maintain the speed of the workpiece at a relatively stable level

after collision until the end of the stroke. Its internal structure is similar to the normal ones, and

is adjustable. The overflow holes of the common type are gradually disabled when the piston is

going forward,so the resistance is getting larger, finally making the workpiece stop smoothly.

Insteadly,the number of outlets in the speed stabilizer are kept constantly within a certain stroke

after the collision, so that the workpiece can run for a certain distance at a steady speed, and

finally decelerate until it stops. Hydraulic speed stabilizers are used in many industries. Precision speed stabilizers provide a

simpler and cost-reduced option. Among the pneumatic cylinders, it can supply very stable anti-pressure effect, making the pneumatic cylinder relying on the effect of resistance to produce a

stable forward speed, in addition, it will not affect the original design of the machine.

HR Series Hydraulic Speed Stabilizer Adopted whole closed structure which no needs the supplement of the hydraulic oil. The suddenly fluctuation of the load will not influence the buffer speed to much, we could achieve the purpose of stabilizing. Feed speed could be debugged easily by turning the knob. Filled with the befitting hydraulic oil which is stable along with the temperature changes make the long term performance steady and safe.

HRT Series Hydraulic Speed Stabilizer(Pneumatic Revert Type)
