FESTO Square Profile Pneumatic Actuator, ADVU‑100‑10/15/20/25/30/40/50/60/80‑P‑A/A‑P‑A Heavy‑Duty Double‑Action Air Cylinder for Automation Equipment, Order Code 156577‑156671

Product Description:

The ADVU series represents a range of high-performance, compact pneumatic cylinders designed specifically for dependable linear motion in automation environments where space is limited. These double-acting cylinders are available with piston diameters spanning from 12mm to 125mm and stroke lengths between 5mm and 80mm. Additionally, custom stroke lengths up to 400mm can be accommodated, providing versatility for various tasks such as positioning, clamping, ejecting, and feeding.

Engineered according to the ISO 21287 standard, the ADVU series requires up to 50% less installation space compared to other cylinders that follow the ISO 15552 specifications. This compactness allows for enhanced productivity even within restricted spaces. The cylinder features a durable construction with a barrel and cover made from wrought aluminium alloy, and it comes with options for either male or female piston rod threads. A magnetic piston is incorporated, enabling position detection through proximity switches.

Manufactured using high-alloy steel coupled with wrought aluminium alloy components, the ADVU cylinders operate efficiently at pressure ranges from 0.5 to 10 bar, dependent on the bore size. Both ends of the cylinder are equipped with elastic cushioning rings or pads that help absorb residual energy, ensuring smooth operation and prolonging the service life of the device. Suitable for operating environments with temperatures from -20°C up to +80°C, the ADVU series is an excellent choice for applications demanding reliable linear motion within minimal installation spaces.

Features:

The double-acting pneumatic cylinder is designed to deliver linear motion during both the advance and return strokes, allowing for precise and controlled operation. Its compact build requires up to 50% less installation space compared to similar ISO 15552 cylinders, making it ideal for applications with limited space.

Compliant with ISO 21287 standards, this cylinder meets international requirements for compact cylinders. It is available in a wide range of bore sizes, including 12mm, 16mm, 20mm, 25mm, 32mm, 40mm, 50mm, 63mm, 80mm, 100mm, and 125mm, offering flexibility to suit various needs.

Multiple stroke options are offered, with standard strokes ranging from 5mm up to 80mm, and custom stroke lengths available up to 400mm. The piston rod can be equipped with either male or female threads, ensuring versatile attachment possibilities for different tooling requirements.

Pneumatic connections vary based on bore size, featuring M5 threads for 12mm to 25mm bores, G1/8 threads for 32mm to 80mm bores, and G1/4 threads for 100mm to 125mm bores. Additionally, elastic cushioning rings or pads at both ends absorb residual energy, contributing to smooth operation without the need for adjustment.

The cylinder is position sensing ready, utilizing a magnetic piston to facilitate the mounting of proximity switches. It operates effectively within a wide pressure range from 0.5 to 10 bar, depending on the bore size, and can withstand temperatures ranging from -20°C to +80°C.

With a corrosion resistance classification of CRC 2, the cylinder tolerates moderate corrosion stresses. It is also RoHS compliant, reflecting its environmentally responsible construction. The design allows for flexible mounting options, enabling installation in any orientation to suit various operational setups.
