hydropneumatic cylinder equipment

Product Description

Hydro-pneumatic cylinder is the name of the new generation of power cylinders for press and plant engineering applications. The cylinder is used when high forces are required, for example for punching, splitting, pressing, stamping, molding, riveting, clamping, compressing or spot welding. In power stroke mode users are provided with many times the force of a comparable conventional pneumatic cylinder with the same air consumption. Hydro-pneumatic cylinder is designed in the same way as a double-acting pneumatic cylinder and is also controlled in the same manner. It is equipped with a pneumohydraulic pressure booster which generates a power stroke when necessary depending on the counterforce. The power cylinder can be operated directly from the compressed air network by means of a pneumatic valve. Simple operation With its clever design the Hydro-pneumatic cylinder can be controlled in the same manner as a double-acting pneumatic cylinder. In contrast to conventional power cylinders, switchover from fast stroke to power stroke takes only approx. 0.*5 seconds, without venting noises and without requiring an additional valve.
