What is a pneumatic cylinder?

Pneumatic cylinder is a very familiar term in industry, especially in the production of industrial machinery or construction projects using compressed air systems.

Belonging to the category of cylinders in the mechanical and manufacturing industries, pneumatic cylinders are one of many different types of cylinders. They all have the purpose of converting energy into kinetic energy, moving the axis of rotation.

 A pneumatic cylinder is a mechanical device that uses the power of compressed air to create force for movement. Energy will be converted from compressed air into kinetic energy and applied to the cylinder's piston, causing it to move in the desired direction.

A pneumatic cylinder is a type of operating mechanism that converts the energy accumulated in compressed air into kinetic energy to provide movement.

Pneumatic cylinders, also known as pneumatic pens, are mechanical devices that create force, often combined with motion, and are powered by compressed air (taken from a conventional air compressor).

Main function of pneumatic cylinder

Basically, the piston in the cylinder moves back and forth to convert energy. This movement is continuous or in waves without the intervention of any factor. The frequency of piston movement is adjusted to control the energy output in the system.

To perform its function, pneumatic cylinders transfer part of the energy by converting the potential energy of the compressed air into kinetic energy. This is achieved by compressed air being able to expand, without the need for other energy to act. It changes itself due to the pressure established by the compressed air being at a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure.

Once activated, air compresses into the tube at one end of the piston and thus transmits force on the piston. Then, the piston will move thanks to compressed air.

Pneumatic cylinders are designed and manufactured differently to suit the system requirements in machine manufacturing.

• Square cylinder
• Round cylinder
• Clamping cylinder
• Compact cylinder
• Rotating cylinder
• Sliding cylinder…

Structure of pneumatic cylinder

Pneumatic cylinders are composed of the following main parts:

• Barrel
• Piston
• Piston shaft (piston rod)
• Cap-end port
• Rod-end port

 Pneumatic cylinders are known for two main types: 1-way pneumatic cylinders, 2-way pneumatic cylinders, and there are also a number of other pneumatic cylinders such as: rotating pneumatic cylinders, sliding pneumatic cylinders, and pneumatic cylinders. electro-pneumatic cylinder, …… When buying a pneumatic cylinder, you should carefully research and consider the types and models of the cylinders to be able to choose the appropriate type of pneumatic cylinder.
