Pneumatic actuator 0.22" - 1.75", -55 °C - 150 °C
Airpot
The Airpot Actuator is an instrument class pneumatic pressure or vacuum operated device designed to provide ultra-low friction and exceedingly long life with the least amount of mass and contamination. It is particularly well suited for applications requiring the most sensitive response possible from an air cylinder. Airpot Corp. manufactures two basic families of pneumatic actuators. Both employ our unique combination of a Pyrex® glass cylinder and graphite piston and have similar performance properties with respect to friction, cleanliness, and temperature range. The major differences are in the actuation direction capabilities, outer construction, mounting features, and dimensions. The performance properties of either product are vastly superior to those of conventional cylinders. Airpot Corporation is the world's leading manufacturer of ultra low friction, super-responsive pneumatic piston and cylinder motion dampers, actuators and Snubbers. Our unique seal-less construction and combination of materials allow unsurpassed longevity, high cycle rates without lubricants, smooth operation at extreme temperatures, and instrument quality performance for low to medium force and energy levels. Common applications for our Actuators, Piston and Cylinder Motion Dampers, and Snubbers include: semiconductor & IC processing equipment, web/wire/filament tension controls, test & measurement instruments, automated medical analyzers, dispensing & vending machines, high capacity mail & cash handling equipment. Complete line includes instrument quality, precision air dashpots, snubbers, pneumatic actuators, Airpel Anti-Stiction Air Cylinders and Airpel-AB cylinders.
