Double acting pneumatic cylindersrodless, series OSP-P |
|
| The rodless cylinders of the OSP-P series are particularly useful where there is no space for a standard cylinder. The piston rod does not extend from the cylinder. Thanks to their maximum stroke of up to 6 meters, they can also be used in applications where the use of a conventional cylinder would be impossible. This series uses the proven two-strip principle. The cylinders are equipped with a magnetic piston as standard for contactless position sensing. The air connection is standardly from the side of the cover and can be turned to any side. |

Permissible load
Examination and selection of cushioning
| In a system with dynamic masses as for example with the rodless cylinder, it is essential to control the dissipation of the kinetic energy during braking until standstill. The first thing to be done is to select cushioning. Two kinds are available: 1. internal cushioning and 2. external cushioning. It is of special significance that the carriage with load does not hit the end cap at high speed | |
| If the point corresponding to a given load and speed lies beneath the appropriate curve, the cushioning is able to absorb the kinetic energy of the system. Vice versa if the point lies above the curve, the cushioning is not able to absorb the kinetic energy, in which case you must: a) reduce load and keep the speed the same b) decrease the speed and maintain the load c) select a larger cylinder d) use shock absorbers as an external damping. Cushioning capacity is shown in the diagrams on the right (in respect to final speed, when carriages get close to end caps). |

Loading the middle support
To prevent strong deflection and vibrations of the cylinder tube, middle supports are required from a certain length. The diagram shows the possible maximum buckling widths depending on the load. The permissible deformation is a max. 0.5 mm deflection between the supports.
