Guided Cylinder With Elastic Cushion FESTO ADVUL‑40‑60‑P‑A PN156892 40x60mm for Material Sorting

Product Description:

The FESTO ADVUL‑40 series consists of guided compact double-acting pneumatic cylinders featuring a 40 mm bore. These cylinders are available in various stroke lengths, including 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80 mm. The part numbers for this series range from 156884 to 156893, covering the full selection.

Designed with a built-in guide-rod-and-yoke anti-rotation mechanism, the ADVUL‑40 series effectively absorbs lateral forces and torque without the need for additional external guides. Models with the suffix ‑P include dual-side elastic cushioning that minimizes end-of-stroke impact and lowers operating noise levels, enhancing overall performance.

Additionally, variants marked with the suffix ‑A come equipped with an integrated T-slot specifically designed for SME‑8 and SMT‑8 proximity switches. This feature allows for accurate position signal feedback, making it suitable for precise control applications. The cylinders utilize wrought-aluminium barrels and end caps combined with high-alloy stainless-steel piston rods. The sealing system comprises composite seals made of NBR and PU, ensuring long-lasting operation even under demanding industrial environments.

The pneumatic port is specified as G1/8 and supports both oil-free and lubricated compressed air, offering flexibility in various working conditions. Furthermore, the ADVUL‑40 series is fully compatible with genuine Festo accessories, such as the FUA flange, SUA swivel flange, clevis feet, and DPVU multi-position kits. This makes the series an ideal choice for high-power linear actuation applications where space constraints demand compact installation solutions.

Features:

The integrated guide-rod and yoke anti-rotation mechanism is designed to resist torque while bearing lateral loads effectively. This innovative feature eliminates the need for external guiding components, thereby saving valuable installation space.

Featuring a compact double-acting design, the slim-body construction allows for mounting in any orientation. This flexibility makes it ideal for installations where space is limited.

The dual-side elastic cushioning (-P) is equipped with built-in elastic cushion rings that absorb the impact at the end stops. This reduces noise levels and minimizes component wear, resulting in a longer service life.

Its proximity-sensor-ready profile (-A) includes an integrated T-slot that accommodates SME-8 or SMT-8 magnetic sensors. These sensors provide home and end-position signal outputs, facilitating seamless PLC automation.

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

The device supports diversified mounting solutions, including direct through-hole mounting. It is also compatible with genuine Festo accessories such as flange, swivel flange, clevis feet, and multi-position cylinder kits.

Designed for flexible air medium compatibility, it comes with a G1/8 air port. The product supports both oil-free operation and lubricated compressed air; however, permanent lubrication is required once lubricated air is applied.

Applications:

The ADVUL‑40 guided compact cylinders are designed specifically for machinery with limited space that requires features such as anti‑rotation capability, lateral‑load resistance, and a relatively high output force to achieve efficient linear motion.

These cylinders are ideal for various industrial applications. In automatic assembly equipment, they are used in heavy‑duty workpiece locating, clamping, and press‑fit stations to ensure precise and reliable operation. Within conveyor systems, ADVUL‑40 cylinders function effectively as heavy‑material stoppers, diverters, and blocking mechanisms, handling demanding tasks with ease.

Packaging machinery benefits from these cylinders as well, particularly in heavy‑load pusher units, container positioning, and fixture actuation, where robustness and accuracy are essential. Additionally, in machine‑tool jigs and fixtures, the ADVUL‑40 serves as a short to medium‑stroke anti‑twist drive unit, enhancing the stability and functionality of the tooling setup.

For applications requiring multi‑position motion, the ADVUL‑40 can be integrated into a 3‑4‑stop multi‑position cylinder configuration using the DPVU kit, allowing versatile movement control. It is also suitable for light‑industry operations and auxiliary automation tasks in injection molding.

Important Note: Continuous eccentric side loads exceeding the limits specified in the datasheet should be avoided. When heavy offset loads are present, it is recommended to add external guidance to ensure optimal performance and prevent damage.
