Guided Cylinder With Elastic Cushion FESTO ADVUL‑32‑60‑P‑A PN156882 32x60mm for Material Sorting

Product Description:

The FESTO ADVUL‑32 series consists of guided compact double-acting pneumatic cylinders featuring a 32 mm bore diameter. These cylinders offer a variety of stroke lengths to suit different application needs, including 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80 mm. The product range is identified by part numbers ranging from 156874 to 156883.

One notable design feature of these cylinders is the built-in guide-rod-and-yoke anti-rotation mechanism. This integrated structure effectively absorbs lateral forces and torque, eliminating the need for additional external guides. Models with the suffix "-P" incorporate dual-side elastic cushioning, which serves to absorb the impact at the end of the stroke and reduce operational noise.

Furthermore, the variant marked with the suffix "-A" includes an integrated T-slot designed for SME-8 or SMT-8 proximity switches, providing reliable position feedback. The cylinders are constructed from high-quality materials such as wrought aluminum for the barrel and end caps, a high-alloy stainless steel piston rod, and composite seals made of NBR and PU to ensure durability and long-term industrial performance.

Equipped with a G1/8 pneumatic port, the FESTO ADVUL‑32 series is compatible with both oil-free and lubricated compressed air supplies. Additionally, these cylinders are designed to work seamlessly with the full range of original Festo accessories, including the FUA flange, SUA swivel flange, clevis feet, and DPVU multi-position kits. This makes them an ideal choice for linear actuation tasks within limited machine installation spaces.

Features:

The integrated guide-rod and yoke anti-rotation mechanism effectively resists torque while supporting lateral loads. This design eliminates the need for external guiding components, allowing for a more compact installation by saving valuable space.

Featuring a compact double-acting design, the slim-body construction enables mounting in any orientation, making it ideal for installations with limited space. This versatility ensures adaptability across various application scenarios.

The dual-side elastic cushioning option (‑P) incorporates built-in elastic cushion rings that absorb the impact at end-stops. This reduces operational noise and minimizes wear on components, thereby extending the overall service life of the device.

For enhanced automation capabilities, the proximity-sensor-ready profile (‑A) includes an integrated T-slot designed to accommodate SME-8 or SMT-8 magnetic sensors. These sensors provide home or end-position signal outputs suitable for PLC automation systems.

Constructed from premium industrial materials, the device features a wrought aluminium barrel and end caps, a high-alloy stainless-steel piston rod, and NBR plus PU composite seals. It also offers CRC-2 moderate corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for typical factory environments.

A variety of mounting options are available, including direct through-hole mounting. Additionally, it is compatible with genuine Festo accessories such as flanges, swivel flanges, clevis feet, and multi-position cylinder kits, providing flexible installation solutions.

The device supports flexible air medium compatibility, equipped with a G1/8 air port. It can operate with either oil-free compressed air or lubricated air (with permanent lubrication required upon applying lubricated air), ensuring adaptability to different maintenance preferences.

Technical Parameters:

Applications:

The ADVUL‑32 guided compact cylinders are specifically designed for machinery with limited space that require both anti-rotation capabilities and resistance to lateral loads during linear motion. These cylinders provide reliable performance in compact setups where stability and precision are critical.

Common applications include automatic assembly equipment, where they are utilized for tasks such as workpiece locating, clamping, and press-fitting operations. Their robust design also makes them suitable for conveyor systems, serving functions like material stopping, diverter control, and blocking mechanisms.

In packaging machinery, these cylinders are often employed as pusher units, for carton positioning, and to actuate fixtures efficiently. The ADVUL‑32 compact cylinders are also widely used in 3C equipment and machine-tool jigs, providing short to medium stroke anti-twist drive solutions.

For multi-position motion needs, the ADVUL‑32 cylinders can be combined with the DPVU kit to form a multi-position cylinder capable of operating with 3 to 4 stops. They are particularly useful in light industry environments as well as auxiliary automation processes in injection molding.

Important Note: Continuous eccentric side loads that exceed the limits specified in the datasheet should be avoided. When heavy offset loads are present, it is recommended to add external guidance to ensure the longevity and proper function of the cylinders.
