FESTO ADVUL‑63‑50‑P‑A PN156909 63x50mm Guided Cylinder Elastic Cushion for Conveyor Sorting

Product Description:

The FESTO ADVUL‑63 series consists of guided compact double-acting pneumatic cylinders featuring a 63 mm bore. These cylinders are available in multiple stroke lengths, including 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80 mm. The part numbers for the series range from 156903 to 156911, covering this variety of sizes.

Designed with a built-in guide-rod-and-yoke anti-rotation mechanism, the ADVUL‑63 cylinders effectively absorb lateral forces and torque. This innovative structure eliminates the need for additional external guides, simplifying installation and reducing space requirements. Models with the "-P" suffix include dual-side elastic cushioning, which helps to absorb the impact at the end of the stroke and reduce operating noise for smoother performance.

The "-A" suffix designates cylinders equipped with an integrated T-slot, which accommodates SME-8 and SMT-8 proximity switches for precise position signal feedback. This feature enhances automation capabilities and ensures accurate control within pneumatic systems.

Constructed from high-quality materials, the cylinder’s barrel and end caps are made of wrought aluminium, while the piston rod is crafted from high-alloy stainless steel. The use of NBR and PU composite seals contributes to the cylinders’ long service life, even when used in demanding industrial environments. Additionally, the G1/8 pneumatic port allows the use of either oil-free or lubricated compressed air, adding to the cylinders’ versatility.

The FESTO ADVUL‑63 series is fully compatible with genuine Festo accessories such as the FUA flange, SUA swivel flange, clevis feet, and DPVU multi-position kits. This compatibility makes these cylinders ideal for applications requiring high-thrust linear actuation within confined machine installation spaces, offering reliable and efficient performance.

Features:

The integrated guide-rod and yoke anti-rotation mechanism effectively resists torque and supports lateral loads. This innovation 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 option (-P) incorporates built-in elastic cushion rings that absorb impacts at end-stops. This reduces noise levels and minimizes component wear, contributing to a longer service life.

The 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 unit features a wrought aluminum barrel and end caps, a high-alloy stainless-steel piston rod, and composite seals made from NBR and PU. It offers CRC-2 moderate corrosion resistance, suitable for general factory environments.

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

The product supports flexible air medium compatibility through a G1/8 air port. It can operate with oil-free air or lubricated compressed air, with the requirement that permanent lubrication is applied once lubrication is used.

Applications:

The ADVUL-63 guided compact cylinders are designed for machinery where space is limited but high performance is essential. These cylinders provide excellent anti-rotation capabilities, resistance to lateral loads, and deliver exceptionally high thrust for linear motion applications.

They are ideal for use in automatic assembly equipment, especially in heavy-duty stations that involve workpiece locating, clamping, and press-fitting operations. Their robustness ensures reliability in demanding environments.

In conveyor systems, these cylinders serve effectively as stoppers for heavy materials, as well as diverters and blocking mechanisms, helping to manage material flow efficiently and safely.

Packaging machinery also benefits from ADVUL-63 cylinders, utilizing them as heavy-load pushers, for precise container positioning, and in actuation of fixtures. Their capability to handle substantial loads makes them suitable for such intense tasks.

For machine-tool jigs and fixtures, the ADVUL-63 provides short to medium stroke anti-twist performance in heavy-duty drive units, ensuring stable and accurate motion during machining processes.

Additionally, these cylinders can be integrated into multi-position motion setups, allowing assembly into 3 or 4-stop multi-position cylinders when used with the DPVU kit, enhancing their versatility.

They are also well-suited for injection molding and heavy-duty automation tasks in light industry, providing durability and precise linear actuation.

Note: It is important to avoid continuous eccentric side loads that exceed the limits specified in the datasheet. When heavy offset loads are present, it is recommended to add external guidance to ensure reliable operation.
