Bimba ( a commonly used Chinese transliteration) is a well-known American manufacturer of pneumatic components, established in 1957. Its products are renowned for their high reliability, corrosion resistance, and compact design, holding a 60% market share in North America.
The PT-017090-A1R belongs to Bimba's stainless steel cylinder series. It is crafted from 304 stainless steel and is suitable for harsh environments (such as food and pharmaceutical industries, as well as coastal areas with high humidity).
Materials and Structure
All-stainless steel construction: The cylinder body, piston rod, and end caps are all made of 304 stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish, offering excellent corrosion and wear resistance. It is suitable for environments with moisture and chemical solvents.
Anti-rotation design: The piston rod features a square cross-section (instead of the traditional hexagonal shape), ensuring that the rotation angle during motion is less than 2.5°, thereby enhancing positioning accuracy.
Compact design: Its small size makes it suitable for space-constrained scenarios (such as inside narrow equipment).
(2) Performance Parameters (Based on General Specifications of the Same Series)
Operating pressure: The standard range is 0.2 to 1.0 MPa, with customizable high-pressure models available.
Operating temperature: From -20°C to 80°C (special models can be extended to -40°C to 120°C).
Cushioning method: It comes standard with adjustable pneumatic cushioning + mechanical cushioning pads to reduce end-of-stroke impact noise and extend service life.
Position detection: A permanent magnet is built into the piston, supporting real-time position signal feedback via magnetic proximity switches (which need to be selected separately).
(3) Installation and Adaptability
Flexible installation: It supports various installation methods, including front/rear flanges, foot brackets, and trunnions, to accommodate different mechanical structures.
Interface standards: The air port size is configured according to the cylinder bore (e.g., a bore of 32mm corresponds to a G1/8 interface, while bores of 40 to 50mm correspond to a G3/8 interface).
