Compact cylinder

Laterally stable

Modern machines and systems are designed to be compact. SMC's JMGP series guide cylinders with double pistons are in line with this development. These new models weigh almost 70 percent less than the established compact cylinders of the MGP series.

At the same time, the manufacturer has reduced the height and length by between 25 and 35 percent and offers cylinders with piston diameters from twelve to 100 millimetres. Strokes of up to 200 millimetres are possible. A total of three different mounting options and the option to connect the compressed air from four sides give the user flexibility in any installation situation. Equipped with stop damping, the JMGP modules are gentle in use when lifting, pushing or clamping goods.

The cylinders are designed for use at operating pressures between 0.15 and 0.7 megapascals. Depending on the piston diameter, they develop a force of 94 to 4,750 newtons. The permissible torque ranges from 0.13 to 13.54 Newton meters (for piston diameters of twelve or 100 millimeters). The strong double cylinders with guide give the compact cylinder high lateral rigidity; in the most stable version with a piston diameter of 100 millimetres, they can withstand lateral loads of up to 24.5 kilograms. pb
