Pneumatic actuators are very common in industrial applications. According to their structural and functional characteristics, they can usually be divided into three categories: cylinder type, rotary type and actuator type.
1. Cylinder type pneumatic actuator
The cylinder type pneumatic actuator has a simple structure and can be designed in various forms and types according to different application requirements.
Its working principle is to generate power through compressed gas from the air source, thereby achieving a certain degree of linear or right-angle rotation.
The rotary pneumatic actuator generates power through compressed gas from the air source to achieve the rotation of a straight or curved axis. It is divided into two categories: double-acting and single-acting. Double-acting actuators can complete both forward and reverse rotations, while single-acting actuators can only achieve one rotation.
3. Actuator type pneumatic actuator
The actuator type pneumatic actuator is mainly composed of a pneumatic valve and a piston. Driven by the air source, the pneumatic valve controls the inlet and outlet flow direction of the air source to achieve mechanical motion control of various equipment.
