Non-lubrication Special housing and bushing enables self lubrication of piston rod High quality long service life Hard anodised stainless steel cylinder tubes offer a high resistance to corrosion and low internal friction Cylinder mountings Available with a comprehensive range of accessories for rigid or flexible mounting ISO-6432 standard (ø8~ø25) Enables world-wide inter-changeability Port thread PT. NPT. are also available Magnetic as standard This pneumatic cylinder from Mindman is double acting, meaning it requires air to extend and air to retract the rod. It adheres to ISO 6432 (also referred to as a mini cylinder or round cylinder), which is a globally accepted and widely used standard. The advantage is that it enables world-wide inter-changeability with other major brands such as Festo, SMC or Norgren. The bore size is 16 mm and it has a stroke length of 25 mm. It has an operating pressure of 0.6 – 7 bar and is capable of movement speeds of 50 – 500mm/s, while theoretically capable of exerting a max force in of 121 N and max force out of 141 N. The piston rod is self lubricating and has a M6×1.0 thread at the end. It has a magnet mounted in the piston. This allows precise position feedback of the rod location by mounting (one or more) magnetic sensors, such as reed or hall sensors, to the valve body. Pneumatic hoses can be connected to both M5×0.8 air ports and the cylinder can be mounted rigid or flexible with a wide range of mounting options, such as rod swivel joint ends (ISO 8139) or rod fork ends. It has an NBR seal and an anodized stainless steel tube with aluminum front and back covers housing, making it durable and capable of operating within a temperature range of -5 to 60°C. Pros: Adheres to ISO 6432, which is globally accepted and widely used making it interchangeable with other major brands. It is double acting, allowing for full control of the rod. The rod is self lubricating, meaning no lubricators are required in the air system. It will require little maintenance and have a long service life. Cons: The product comes with no manual damping adjustment, but still has a cushioning pad. Not able to be operated in freezing environments. MCMI series The MCMI series adheres to ISO 6432 (also referred to as a mini cylinder or round cylinder), making it globally accepted and widely used allowing for replacement of other brands at a lower cost. There are double acting and single acting versions available. The rod diameter has a range of 8-25 mm and a stroke length between 10-500 mm making it capable of a wide range of applications. Other stroke lengths are available upon request. The piston is capable of movement speeds of 50-500 mm/s and operating on a pressure range of 0.6-7 bars, depending on the rod diameter. The MCMI series is theoretically capable of exerting a max force in of 288 N and max force out of 344 N. The piston rod is threaded at the end. Some versions have a magnetic strip, allowing for body mounted sensors to detect rod positioning. The MCMI series has an anodized stainless steel tube with aluminum front and back covers and an NBR seal, making the full assembly durable and capable of operating from -5 to 60°C. Mindman is a global leader in the pneumatics industry and manufacturers a wide range of high quality pneumatic products. They follow strict manufacturing standards (ISO 9001) and verify their end products with numerous testing and calibration steps to ensure they meet specifications. You can be assured of the high quality, efficiency, life cycle and cost to performance for these pneumatic cylinders.
