JUNE APPLICATION TIPS

Legris Regulating Air Flow           

Adjusting air flow and thus controlling the speed of a pneumatic cylinder

Flow control regulators : The exhaust air flow is controlled by an adjustable restrictor. The inlet flow is unrestricted full bore.
Flow regulation is more precise and constant when positioned near to the cylinder : in this way, it is possible to avoid the elastic effect of the compressed air contained in the pipework between the control valve and cylinder. Direct mounting of the banjo flow regulator fitting onto the cylinder is therefore the optimum solution.

JUNE NEW PRODUCTS

MX Pneumatic Band Cylinders --

Maximum Durability

MXP-N MXP-S MXP-P

Introducing the MX Band Cylinder --designed to outlast every rodless cylinder on the market.

Designed with Tolomatic Endurance TechnologySM features, the MX delivers superior performance to meet the most demanding applications.

Durable Bearings. Profiled rail design uses THK® Caged Ball® technology to reduce friction and extend actuator life. Solid bearing design reduces stress concentration by 59% for optimum performance. Internal bearing design is permanently lubricated for long trouble-free service.

Durable Bands. Stainless steel bands are stronger and will not expand like elastomer (non-metallic) bands, providing reliable sealing over the life of the actuator.
