Double acting FESTO ADVUL‑80‑10‑P‑A PN156912 80x10mm Anti‑Rotation Guided Cylinder Elastic Cushion for Assembly Positioning

Product Description:

The FESTO ADVUL‑80 series consists of guided compact double-acting pneumatic cylinders with an 80 mm bore diameter. These cylinders come in a variety of stroke lengths, including 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80 mm. The part numbers for this series range from 156912 to 156920, providing options to suit various application needs.

Designed with a built-in guide-rod and yoke anti-rotation mechanism, the ADVUL‑80 cylinders effectively absorb lateral forces and torque. This innovative structure eliminates the need for additional external guides, simplifying installation and maintenance. Moreover, models with the suffix –P feature dual-side elastic cushioning that minimizes end-of-stroke impact and significantly reduces operating noise for a smoother performance.

For applications requiring precise position feedback, the suffix –A version integrates a T-slot compatible with SME-8 and SMT-8 proximity switches. This allows for easy and accurate monitoring of cylinder position signals, enhancing control and automation capabilities.

Constructed from premium materials, the cylinder barrel and end caps are made of wrought aluminium, while the piston rod is crafted from high-alloy stainless steel. The seals comprise a robust NBR and PU composite, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance under heavy-duty industrial conditions. Additionally, the G1/8 pneumatic port supports both oil-free and lubricated compressed air, providing flexibility in various environments.

The FESTO ADVUL‑80 series is fully compatible with original Festo accessories, including the FUA flange, SUA swivel flange, clevis feet, and DPVU multi-position kits. This compatibility makes them an ideal choice for extra-high-thrust linear actuation applications, especially where installation space is limited within machinery.

Features:

The integrated guide-rod and yoke anti-rotation mechanism effectively resists torque and handles lateral loads. This design 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 makes it ideal for use in confined spaces where installation flexibility is essential.

The dual-side elastic cushioning (-P) includes built-in elastic cushion rings that absorb end-stop impacts. This reduces operational noise and minimizes wear on components, ultimately extending the service life of the product.

Equipped with a proximity-sensor-ready profile (-A), the integrated T-slot can accommodate SME-8 or SMT-8 magnetic sensors. This facilitates home and end-position signal output, enabling seamless PLC automation integration.

Constructed from premium industrial materials, it features a wrought aluminium barrel and end caps, a high-alloy stainless-steel piston rod, and NBR+PU composite seals. It provides CRC-2 moderate corrosion resistance 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 flanges, swivel flanges, clevis feet, and multi-position cylinder kits to enhance installation versatility.

With flexible air medium compatibility, it uses a G1/8 air port and supports both oil-free operation and lubricated compressed air. Note that permanent lubrication is required once lubricated air is applied.

Technical Parameters:

Applications:

The ADVUL‑80 guided compact cylinders are designed specifically for machinery with limited space. They offer anti‑rotation capabilities, excellent lateral‑load resistance, and are capable of delivering exceptionally high thrust for linear motion applications.

These cylinders are ideal for various automatic assembly equipment, including heavy‑duty workpiece locating, clamping, and press‑fit stations. Their robust construction ensures reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.

In conveyor systems, the ADVUL‑80 cylinders effectively function as heavy‑material stoppers, diverters, and blocking mechanisms. They provide the strength and precision necessary for smooth and controlled material handling.

Packaging machinery also benefits from these cylinders, particularly in applications involving heavy‑load pusher units, container positioning, and fixture actuation. Their durability and compact design make them suitable for space-constrained setups.

Additionally, machine‑tool jigs and fixtures utilize these cylinders as short-to-medium-stroke anti-twist heavy‑duty drive units, ensuring accurate and stable motion in manufacturing processes.

For more complex applications, the ADVUL‑80 can be configured into multi-position motion systems. By assembling 3 to 4 stopping points with the DPVU kit, users can achieve precise multi-stop linear movements.

These cylinders are widely used in injection molding, heavy industry, and heavy-duty light industry automation, providing reliable performance across a variety of heavy-load applications.

Note: Continuous eccentric side loads that exceed the datasheet limits should be avoided. When operating under heavy offset loads, it is recommended to add external guidance to ensure longevity and optimal performance.
