Elastic Cushion Guided Cylinder ADVUL‑50‑20‑P‑A FESTO PN156896 50x20mm for Jig Positioning

Product Description:

The FESTO ADVUL‑50 series consists of guided, compact, double-acting pneumatic cylinders with a 50 mm bore. These cylinders are available in various stroke lengths, including 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80 mm, and their part numbers range from 156894 to 156902.

Designed with a built-in guide-rod-and-yoke anti-rotation structure, these cylinders effectively absorb lateral forces and torque, eliminating the need for additional external guides. Models with the suffix ‑P provide dual-side elastic cushioning, which helps to absorb the impact at the end of the stroke and reduce operational noise.

Additionally, the suffix ‑A indicates the integration of a T-slot that accommodates SME-8 or SMT-8 proximity switches, enabling precise position signal feedback. The cylinders feature a barrel and end caps made from wrought aluminum, along with a piston rod crafted from high-alloy stainless steel. Composite seals made of NBR and PU contribute to long-lasting performance, even under heavy-duty industrial conditions.

The pneumatic port is G1/8 compatible and supports both oil-free and lubricated compressed air. These cylinders are fully compatible with genuine FESTO accessories, such as FUA flanges, SUA swivel flanges, clevis feet, and DPVU multi-position kits, making them ideal for high-thrust linear actuation in applications where machine installation space is limited.

Features:

The integrated guide-rod and yoke anti-rotation mechanism effectively counters torque and supports lateral loads. This design eliminates the need for external guiding components, which helps to save valuable installation space.

Featuring a compact double-acting design, this slim-bodied construction can be mounted in any orientation, making it ideal for installations with limited space.

The dual-side elastic cushioning (-P) incorporates built-in elastic cushion rings that absorb the impact at end stops. This reduces noise levels and minimizes component wear, thereby extending the service life of the product.

With a proximity-sensor-ready profile (-A), the integrated T-slot is compatible with SME-8 / SMT-8 magnetic sensors. These sensors provide home and end-position signal outputs, facilitating efficient PLC automation.

Constructed from premium industrial materials, the unit features a wrought aluminum 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 product supports diversified mounting solutions, including direct through-hole mounting. It is compatible with genuine Festo accessories such as flange, swivel flange, clevis feet, and multi-position cylinder kits.

Designed for flexible air medium compatibility, it includes a G1/8 air port and supports both oil-free operation and lubricated compressed air. When lubricated air is used, permanent lubrication is required to maintain optimal performance.

Applications:

The ADVUL-50 guided compact cylinders are specifically designed for machinery where space is limited but there is a need for anti-rotation capability, strong lateral load resistance, and high-thrust linear motion. These cylinders provide reliable performance in demanding industrial applications.

In automatic assembly equipment, ADVUL-50 cylinders are ideal for heavy-duty tasks such as precise workpiece locating, secure clamping, and press-fit operations. Their robust design ensures consistent and accurate motion even under rigorous conditions.

They are also widely used in conveyor systems, serving as heavy-material stoppers, diverters, and blocking mechanisms. This helps in managing the flow of materials efficiently while maintaining system stability and durability.

Packaging machinery benefits from the ADVUL-50 cylinders in applications requiring heavy-load pushing units, container positioning, and the activation of various fixtures. Their compact size combined with powerful thrust enables efficient packaging processes.

For machine-tool jigs and fixtures, these cylinders offer short to medium stroke anti-twist heavy-duty drive capabilities. This makes them excellent for precise, multi-position movements that demand high reliability and repeatability.

Moreover, by using the DPVU kit, the ADVUL-50 cylinders can be assembled into multi-position cylinders with 3 to 4 stop points, facilitating complex motion requirements in modern automation systems.

These cylinders are also well suited for injection-molding machines and other heavy-duty light-industry automation applications, combining space efficiency with powerful performance.

Note: It is important not to apply continuous eccentric side loads that exceed the limits specified in the datasheet. For operations involving heavy offset loads, additional external guidance should be incorporated to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Packing and Shipping:

Product Packaging and Shipping for Piston Pneumatic Cylinder

Each piston pneumatic cylinder is carefully packaged to ensure it arrives in perfect condition. The cylinder is first wrapped in protective foam or bubble wrap to prevent any scratches or damage during transit. It is then placed inside a sturdy cardboard box with cushioning materials to absorb shocks and vibrations.

For bulk orders, multiple units are securely packed in larger cartons with dividers to avoid contact between individual cylinders. All packages are clearly labeled with product details, handling instructions, and shipping information.

We offer various shipping options including standard ground shipping, expedited air freight, and international delivery. All shipments are tracked and insured to guarantee timely and safe arrival. Our logistics partners ensure efficient handling and delivery to your specified location.
