Contact SupplierA pneumatic cylinder is a mechanical device that uses the power of compressed air to produce force and motion. It is a type of linear actuator, meaning it creates motion in a straight line, as opposed to rotary motion.The basic components of a pneumatic cylinder include a cylindrical chamber or tube, a piston, and two valves—one for intake and one for exhaust. Compressed air is introduced into the cylinder through the intake valve, causing the piston to move in the desired direction. The exhaust valve allows air to escape from the cylinder, enabling the piston to return to its original position.Pneumatic cylinders are commonly used in various industrial applications, such as manufacturing, automation, and machinery. They are valued for their simplicity, reliability, and relatively low cost. Additionally, pneumatic systems are often preferred in environments where cleanliness and the avoidance of electrical components are important, as they do not produce sparks and are not affected by electrical interference
