  5. Classification Of Pneumatic Actuators All pneumatic actuators can be subdivided into the following types: diaphragm pneumatic actuators; pneumatic power cylinders; gas-engine pneumatic actuators; turbine pneumatic actuators; jet pneumatic actuators; pneumomuscles; combined pneumatic actuators.

  6. Diaphragm Pneumatic Actuators Figure 1.1.

  7. Pneumatic Power Cylinders As compressed air moves into the cylinder, it pushes the piston along the length of the cylinder. Compressed air or the spring, located at the rod end of the cylinder, pushes the piston back.

  8. Pneumatic Power Cylinders A double acting pneumatic cylinder has two- directed powered motion, with pressure on both sides.

  9. Pneumatic Power Cylinders

  10. Pneumatic Power Cylinders • Optimal range • Good running performance and long service life thanks to smooth, hard cylinder bore • Piston rod and cylinder barrel made of stainless steel • More than the standard • Round cylinders with piston diameters from 8 to 25 mm conform to ISO 6432, DIN ISO 6432. Variants are based on these standards. The series is not repairable. • The cap is swaged onto the barrel. • Functional • Three different end caps mean numerous functional and spacesaving designs • Variants • Non-rotating • Through piston rod • With or without position sensing • Cushioning non-adjustable at either end or cushioning adjustable at both ends • Further piston rod variants

  11. Pneumatic Power Cylinders Double-acting double-rod cylinder – double-acting cylinder with a piston rod extending form each end. The piston rods are connected with the same piston. Double-rod cylinders provide equal force and speed in both directions.

  12. Pneumatic Power Cylinders • Fast or slow valve actuation • Position sensing • Internal air channels eliminate protruding tubing and attachments, and thus also harmful accumulation of contaminants • Suitable for manual on-site use, as well as automatic operation • Opening and closing actuated via flange-mounted solenoid valve with port pattern to Namur, or via valve terminals with a choice of 30 different fieldbus protocols • Sturdy and reliable, even in aggressive environments • Highly corrosion resistant Festo Copac Linear Actuator

  13. Pneumatic Power Cylinders Ideal for vertical use • Ball-bearing circulatingguide system for a longservice life whenoperatedvertically • Double piston rod for a highlevel of force in spite of a flat design • Compactdimensions • Symmetric geometry • Low weight • Wide variety of mountingoptions The ZSC series is available in five sizes with piston diameters of 6 to 25 mm and strokes from 10 to 100 mm (in 10 mm increments). The mini slides operate at a speed between 0.05 to 0.5 m/s (0.16 to 1.6 ft/s) at an operating pressure of 1.5 to 7 bar (22 to 102 psi).

  14. Pneumatic Power Cylinders The GPC series is ideal for all applications that demand absolute precision and side load capacity. Compared to standard cylinders, cylinders from this series offer extremely precise movement, high side load capacities, and also torsion protection. This results in fewer outer guides to design and set up machines.

  15. Pneumatic Power Cylinders Tandem cylinders ADVUT • A maximum of 4 cylinders can be combined. • The internal distribution of compressed air means that only 2 connections are required to pressurise all cylinders. • The force in the return stroke corresponds to that of a single cylinder with corresponding piston diameter. By connecting 2, 3 or 4 cylinders with the same piston diameter and stroke in series, the force in the advance stroke (thrust) can be doubled, tripled or quadrupled in comparison to a single cylinder.

  16. Pneumatic Power Cylinders Shock influence is required in a number of technological operations, such as punching, marking, punching of holes. In this case we useshot pneumocylinders. Figure 1.3. The scheme of the shot pneumocylinder: A, b, c – cavities; 1, 3, 4 – channels; 2 - aperture

  29. Advantages and disadvantages • Disadvantages: • compressibility of the air • impossibility to receive uniform and constant speed of the working bodies movement • difficulties in performance at slow speed • limited conditions – use of compressed air is beneficial up to the definite values of pressure (the cost of compressed air productior increases sharply when the pressure in the system exceeds 8…10 bar) • compressed air requires good preparation (the air should be cleared of mechanical impurity and should be free of moisture) • Advantages: • simplicity of realization relatively to small back and forth motions; • sophisticated transfer mechanisms are not required • low cost • high speed of moving • ease at reversion movements • tolerance to overloads, up to a full stop. • high reliability of work • explosion and fire safety • ecological purity • ability to accumulation and transportation

  48. Advantages and Disadvantages • Variable hydraulic actuators are widely used as drives of machine tools, rolling mills, pressing and the foundry equipment, road and building machines, transport and agricultural machines, etc. A number of advantages in comparison with mechanical and electric transfers explains such their wide application: • infinitely variable control of gear-ratio in a wide range and an opportunity to create the big reduction ratio; • small specific weight, i.e. the weight of a hydroactuator is in ratio to transmitted capacity (0,2...0,3 kg / kWt); • opportunity of simple and reliable protection of the engine from overloads; • small sluggishness of the rotating parts, providing fast change of operating modes (start-up, dispersal, a reverser, a stop); • simplicity of transformation of rotary movement into reciprocating one; • opportunity of positioning a hydraulic engine on removal(distance) from an energy source and freedom in making configuration. • It is also necessary to reckon with disadvantages of hydraulic actuators: • Efficiency of a volumetric hydraulic actuator is a little bit lower, than efficiency of mechanical and electric transfers, and during regulation it is reduced; • conditions of operation of a hydraulic actuator (temperature) influence its characteristics; • Efficiency of a hydraulic actuator is a little reduced in the process of exhaustion of its resource owing to the increase in backlashes and the increase of outflow of liquid (falling of volumetric efficiency); • sensitivity to pollution of working liquid and necessity of high culture service.
