Anti‑Rotation Guided Cylinder FESTO ADVUL‑50‑40‑P‑A PN156899 50x40mm for Packaging Positioning

Product Description:

The FESTO ADVUL-50 series consists of guided compact double-acting pneumatic cylinders featuring a 50 mm bore. These cylinders come in a variety of stroke lengths, including 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80 mm. The series covers part numbers ranging from 156894 to 156902, catering to diverse industrial needs.

Designed with a built-in guide-rod-and-yoke anti-rotation structure, the ADVUL-50 series effectively absorbs lateral forces and torque. This innovative mechanism eliminates the need for additional external guides, ensuring streamlined installation and enhanced reliability during operation.

The suffix "-P" in the product code indicates the presence of dual-side elastic cushioning, which helps absorb the impact at the end of each stroke and significantly reduces operating noise. Meanwhile, the suffix "-A" denotes cylinders equipped with an integrated T-slot, compatible with SME-8 and SMT-8 proximity switches, allowing for precise position signal feedback.

Constructed with a wrought-aluminium barrel and end caps, a high-alloy stainless-steel piston rod, and NBR+PU composite seals, these cylinders are engineered for long-lasting performance even in heavy-duty industrial environments. The G1/8 pneumatic port supports the use of either oil-free or lubricated compressed air, providing operational flexibility.

Furthermore, the ADVUL-50 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 it an ideal choice for achieving high-thrust linear actuation in confined installation spaces within machinery.

Features:

Integrated Guide-Rod & Yoke Anti-Rotation Mechanism: This innovative feature effectively resists torque and supports lateral loads. By eliminating the need for external guiding components, it optimizes installation space and simplifies the overall setup.

Compact Double-Acting Design: With its slim and streamlined body construction, this cylinder can be mounted in any orientation. This makes it ideal for installations where space is limited, providing versatile application options.

Dual-Side Elastic Cushioning (-P): Equipped with built-in elastic cushion rings, it absorbs end-stop impacts to reduce noise levels and minimize wear on components. This design contributes to an extended service life and improved operational reliability.

Proximity-Sensor-Ready Profile (-A): Featuring an integrated T-slot, the profile is compatible with SME-8 and SMT-8 magnetic sensors. These sensors enable precise home and end-position signal output, facilitating seamless PLC automation integration.

Premium Industrial Materials: Constructed from high-quality materials, including a wrought aluminium barrel and end caps, a high-alloy stainless-steel piston rod, and NBR+PU composite seals. It offers CRC-2 moderate corrosion resistance, making it suitable for general factory environments.

Diversified Mounting Solutions: The design allows for direct through-hole mounting and is compatible with genuine Festo accessories such as flange mounts, swivel flanges, clevis feet, and multi-position cylinder kits, enhancing installation flexibility.

Flexible Air Medium Compatibility: Equipped with a G1/8 air port, this cylinder supports both oil-free operation and lubricated compressed air. However, if lubricated air is used, permanent lubrication must be applied to ensure optimal performance.

Applications:

The ADVUL‑50 guided compact cylinders are designed for machinery with limited space that require features such as anti‑rotation capability, lateral load resistance, and high-thrust linear motion. These cylinders are ideal for applications where precise and reliable movement is essential despite spatial constraints.

In automatic assembly equipment, ADVUL‑50 cylinders excel in heavy-duty tasks including workpiece locating, clamping, and press-fitting operations. Their robust design ensures stability and accuracy in these demanding processes.

For conveyor systems, these cylinders serve effectively as stoppers for heavy materials, as well as diverters and blocking mechanisms, offering dependable control over material flow and positioning.

Packaging machinery can benefit from ADVUL‑50 guided cylinders through their role in heavy-load pusher units, accurate container positioning, and fixture actuation. This enhances the performance and reliability of packaging lines handling substantial loads.

When it comes to machine-tool jigs and fixtures, these cylinders provide short to medium stroke, anti-twist, and heavy-duty drive functions. Their guided design minimizes rotation and increases the lifespan of the tooling equipment.

The ADVUL‑50 series also supports multi-position motion requirements. By using the DPVU kit, it is possible to assemble a 3 to 4-stop multi-position cylinder, expanding the versatility of motion control in various industrial scenarios.

These cylinders are widely used in injection molding and heavy-duty light-industry automation, proving their adaptability across different industrial sectors.

Note: It is important not to apply continuous eccentric side loads exceeding the limits specified in the datasheet. For applications involving heavy offset loads, additional external guidance should be incorporated to ensure safe and reliable operation.
