What is a rotary oscillating cylinder?

Swing cylinder is a pneumatic actuator that uses compressed air to drive the output shaft to do reciprocating rotation within a certain angle range. Used for the opening and closing of valves and the arm movement of robots.

Rotary cylinders are divided into rack-and-pinion rotary cylinders, vane rotary cylinders and telescopic rotary cylinders. The swing angle is the angle formed by the starting point and the mouth position. The role of the oscillating cylinder is to move, rotate, sort and clamp objects.

Selection of cylinders:

1, type selection According to the working requirements and conditions, correctly select the type of cylinder. The buffer cylinder should be selected when the cylinder reaches the end of the stroke without impact phenomenon and impact noise; Light weight is required, and light cylinders should be selected.

2. Installation form?

According to the installation location, use and other factors. In general, a fixed cylinder is used. When it is necessary to rotate continuously with the working mechanism (such as lathe, grinder, etc.). ), the rotary cylinder should be selected.

3. The force is the choice of cylinder diameter. According to the load force, determine the thrust and tension output by the cylinder. Generally speaking, according to the external load theory, the cylinder force required by conditions is balanced, and different load rates are selected according to different speeds, so that the cylinder output force has a slight margin. ?
