Wholesale Pneulead Slide Table Cylinder Manufacturers

A slide table cylinder refers to a cylinder with precision guiding, supporting, and driving functions, also known as a pneumatic slide. It is a parallel line drive organization widely used in the industrial production industry of automation technology. In CNC lathes, automatic machinery, and intelligent robot industry are widely used.
Our GXS GXH GXQ series cylinders all have the advantages of small size, high output force, strong, high precision and etc.

Working principle of cylinder: The cylinder on the fixed die feeds compressed air, and one end of the cylinder pushes the guide rod in the opposite direction. The push stroke depends on the length of the guide bar. The pneumatic sliding cylinder is generally used for conveying precision instruments with high precision. The guide rod cylinder has strong lateral load resistance. The thrust and tension on the piston rod are determined according to the force required for the work. Therefore, when selecting the cylinder, the output force of the cylinder should have a small margin. If the cylinder diameter is small, the output force is insufficient, the cylinder cannot work normally; however, if the cylinder diameter is too large, the equipment is not only bulky and expensive but also gas consumption increases, resulting in wasted energy. In the fixture design, the force augmentation mechanism should be used as much as possible to reduce the size of the cylinder.

How does a Slide Table Cylinder work?

A slide table cylinder, also known as a linear slide or linear actuator, is a mechanical device that converts rotary motion into linear motion. It typically consists of a piston within a cylindrical chamber and is used to move a load along a linear path. The working principle can vary depending on the specific design of the slide table cylinder.
Piston and Cylinder Construction:
The basic structure of a slide table cylinder includes a piston that moves back and forth inside a cylindrical chamber. The cylinder is usually equipped with ports for the inlet and outlet of fluid (typically air or hydraulic fluid).
Fluid Power Actuation:
Slide table cylinders are commonly actuated using fluid power, either pneumatic or hydraulic. In a pneumatic system, compressed air is used to move the piston, while hydraulic systems use pressurized hydraulic fluid.
Double-Acting vs. Single-Acting:
Slide table cylinders can be double-acting or single-acting. In a double-acting cylinder, fluid is applied to both sides of the piston alternately, allowing for movement in both directions. In a single-acting cylinder, fluid is applied to only one side of the piston, and a spring or external force returns the piston to its original position.
Operation Cycle:
In a typical working cycle of a double-acting slide table cylinder:
The cylinder is pressurized on one side, causing the piston to extend and move the load.
The pressure on the other side of the piston is released, allowing the cylinder to retract or return to its original position.
The cycle repeats as needed to achieve the desired linear motion.
Guidance Mechanism:
To ensure smooth and precise linear motion, slide table cylinders often incorporate guidance mechanisms such as linear bearings or slides. These components help maintain alignment and prevent the piston from rotating inside the cylinder.
Control:
The operation of a slide table cylinder can be controlled manually, electrically, or through automated systems. Control valves or electronic controls regulate the flow of fluid to the cylinder, determining the direction and speed of linear motion.
Applications:
Slide table cylinders are used in various applications, such as automated machinery, assembly lines, packaging equipment, and any system where controlled linear motion is required.

What maintenance procedures are recommended for Slide Table Cylinders?

Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure the optimal performance and longevity of slide table cylinders. 
Inspection:
Regularly inspect the slide table cylinder for any signs of wear, damage, or leaks. Check the condition of seals, bearings, and other components. Look for loose fasteners or any abnormalities.
Cleanliness:
Keep the slide table cylinder and its surroundings clean to prevent the entry of contaminants. Dust, dirt, and debris can negatively impact the performance of the cylinder. Clean the exterior regularly and consider implementing protective measures such as covers or shields.
Lubrication:
Follow the manufacturer's guidelines for lubrication. Apply the recommended lubricants to moving parts, such as slides and bearings, to reduce friction and ensure smooth operation. Over-lubrication can be as detrimental as under-lubrication, so adhere to the specified intervals and quantities.
Seal Inspection and Replacement:
Inspect the seals regularly for wear or damage. Damaged seals can lead to fluid leaks and decreased performance. Replace seals promptly if any issues are identified.
Check Alignment:
Ensure that the slide table is properly aligned. Misalignment can lead to uneven wear and reduced efficiency. Check for any signs of binding or uneven movement during operation.
Fastener Tightening:
Periodically check and tighten all fasteners, including bolts and screws. Vibration and operational stresses can cause fasteners to loosen over time.
Check for Abnormal Sounds or Vibrations:
Pay attention to any unusual sounds or vibrations during operation. These may be indicators of issues such as misalignment, loose components, or wear.
Safety Mechanism Inspection:
If the slide table cylinder includes safety features or mechanisms, inspect them regularly to ensure they are functioning correctly. This may include limit switches, emergency stop systems, or other safety devices.
