Booster Cylinder remedies under-powered actuators..
Compact Air-to-Air Booster operates on air pressure alone to amplify input pressure 2:1. Outlet air pressure up to 250 psi is possible. Applications include fixtures and tooling that have already been designed, but it is later determined that actuators are providing insufficient force. Booster can be installed to amplify input pressure and supply required power. Units have hard-coat anodized,...

Clamping Cylinder loads and unloads light parts.
Twist Clamp has internal mechanism to produce rotary piston motion throughout stroke. By attaching clamp arm, actuator becomes clamping mechanism for light-duty holding applications. Motion rotates clamp arm out of work area for easy loading and unloading of parts. It uses 40mm bore cylinder that produces up to 224 lb of clamping force at maximum pressure of 140 psi. Cylinder body is hard coat...
