Double acting FESTO ADVUL‑40‑80‑P‑A PN156893 40x80mm Anti‑Rotation Guided Cylinder Position‑Detection for Assembly Lifting

Product Description:

The FESTO ADVUL‑40 series consists of guided compact double-acting pneumatic cylinders with a 40 mm bore diameter. These cylinders are offered in various stroke lengths, including 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80 mm. Their part numbers range from 156884 to 156893, covering a wide selection to suit different application needs.

One of the key features of the ADVUL‑40 series is the built-in guide-rod-and-yoke anti-rotation mechanism. This design effectively absorbs lateral forces and torque, eliminating the need for additional external guidance systems. The suffix "-P" indicates models equipped with dual-side elastic cushioning, which helps to minimize end-of-stroke impact and reduce operating noise during use.

For enhanced functionality, the suffix "-A" denotes cylinders that include an integrated T-slot designed to accommodate SME-8 or SMT-8 proximity switches. This allows for precise position signal feedback, improving the control and automation capabilities of the pneumatic system.

The cylinders are constructed from durable materials such as a wrought-aluminium barrel and end caps, coupled with a high-alloy stainless-steel piston rod. The sealing system utilizes a composite of NBR and PU, ensuring long service life and reliable performance even in demanding industrial environments. Additionally, the G1/8 pneumatic port supports both oil-free and lubricated compressed air supplies.

Fully compatible with genuine FESTO accessories, including FUA flanges, SUA swivel flanges, clevis feet, and DPVU multi-position kits, the ADVUL‑40 series is ideal for high-power linear actuation tasks. Its compact design makes it especially suitable for installations where space is limited within machinery.

Technical Parameters:

This technical specification outlines the key features of the piston pneumatic cylinder, similar in design and functionality to the Festo ADVUL‑32 compact guided cylinder. The Festo ADVUL‑32 compact guided cylinder is known for its reliability and precision, qualities also embodied in this ADVUL‑40 series. Like the Festo ADVUL‑32 compact guided cylinder, this product offers robust cushioning, precise position sensing, and efficient double-acting operation.

Applications:

The ADVUL‑40 guided compact cylinders are designed specifically for machinery with limited space, requiring features such as anti-rotation capability, resistance to lateral loads, and a relatively high output force for linear movement. These cylinders provide reliable performance in demanding environments where precise and robust motion control is essential.

They are commonly used in automatic assembly equipment, where they handle heavy-duty tasks such as workpiece locating, clamping, and press-fit operations. Their sturdy construction ensures accurate positioning and secure holding of components during complex manufacturing processes.

In conveyor systems, ADVUL‑40 cylinders serve effectively as stoppers for heavy materials, diverters, and blocking mechanisms. Their ability to withstand lateral forces and maintain stability makes them ideal for directing and controlling material flow efficiently.

Packaging machinery also benefits from these cylinders, particularly in applications involving heavy-load pusher units, container positioning, and fixture actuation. Their compact size combined with robust force output supports high-speed, reliable packaging operations.

Additionally, the ADVUL‑40 guided compact cylinders are suitable for machine-tool jigs and fixtures requiring short to medium stroke lengths with anti-twist drive units. This facilitates precise and stable movements necessary in tooling applications.

For multi-position motion requirements, these cylinders can be assembled into 3-4 stop multi-position units by utilizing the DPVU kit, expanding their versatility across various automation tasks.

They are also applied in light-industrial environments and injection-molding auxiliary automation, demonstrating their adaptability across different sectors.

Note: It is important not to subject the cylinders to continuous eccentric side loads that exceed the limits specified in the datasheet. For applications involving heavy offset loads, external guidance should be added to ensure proper operation and prevent premature wear.
