FESTO 156602 ADVU-20-15-A-P-A M5 Port 20x15mm External Thread Double-Action Pneumatic Cylinder for Workpiece Sorting with Magnetic Piston ISO 6432

Product Description:

The Festo ADVU-20 is a compact pneumatic cylinder designed with a double-acting mechanism. It features a 20 mm bore diameter and includes an integrated magnetic piston, which allows for precise position sensing during operation.

This cylinder is equipped with elastic cushioning rings and plates at both ends, known as P-type cushioning, to ensure smooth and controlled movement. It is available with standard stroke lengths ranging from 5 mm up to 50 mm, accommodating various application needs.

Customers can choose between different piston rod thread options: internal thread (-P-A) or external thread (-A-P-A), providing flexibility in mounting and installation. The operating pressure of the ADVU-20 ranges from 0.8 to 10 bar, making it suitable for various pneumatic systems.

Due to its compact size and reliable position feedback via the magnetic piston, the ADVU-20 is ideal for automation tasks that require space-saving solutions without compromising performance or precision.

Features:

This product features an ultra-compact design that requires 50% less installation space compared to ISO 15552 standard cylinders. This compactness makes it an ideal choice for machines with limited space or tight layouts.

Equipped with double-acting operation, the cylinder delivers power in both the forward and return strokes. This ensures smooth and controlled bidirectional motion, enhancing the overall performance and reliability.

The integrated magnetic piston allows for non-contact position sensing via proximity switches. Sensors can be easily installed or replaced without the need for mechanical adjustments, simplifying maintenance.

Featuring flexible cushioning rings and plates at both ends, the elastic cushioning design effectively reduces impact energy. This helps to minimize vibration and noise when the cylinder reaches its end positions, improving operational comfort.

Constructed from durable materials such as wrought aluminium alloy for the barrel and end caps, a high-alloy stainless steel piston rod, and NBR/TPE-U (PU) dynamic seals. It boasts a corrosion resistance class of CRC 2, making it well-suited for demanding industrial environments.

The cylinder is designed with through-holes on the barrel and offers an extensive variety of mounting accessories. This allows for versatile installation possibilities in virtually any orientation or position.

Users can select between two piston rod thread types: an internal thread (-P-A) or an external thread (-A-P-A). This flexibility helps accommodate different load attachments and meet diverse application requirements.

Packing and Shipping:

Product Packaging and Shipping for Piston Pneumatic Cylinder

Each piston pneumatic cylinder is carefully packaged to ensure safe delivery and optimal protection during transit. The cylinder is first wrapped in anti-static bubble wrap or foam padding to prevent any surface damage or scratches. It is then placed inside a sturdy, custom-sized cardboard box with additional cushioning materials such as foam inserts or air pillows to minimize movement within the box.

For bulk orders, multiple cylinders are individually wrapped and arranged securely within larger cartons, separated by dividers or protective layers to avoid contact and potential damage. All packages are clearly labeled with product details, handling instructions, and shipping information.

We offer various shipping options depending on customer needs, including standard ground shipping, expedited air freight, and international courier services. Each shipment is tracked with a unique tracking number, and customers are provided with this information to monitor their order status.

To ensure timely and safe delivery, we work with trusted logistics partners and comply with all relevant packaging and shipping regulations. If any special packaging or shipping requirements are needed, please contact our customer service team to make appropriate arrangements.
