Compact Guide CylinderCC Series
The CC Series guided compact cylinders represent the top of the range in integrated linear pneumatic actuators. Engineered to offer an ultra-rigid structure with high resistance to radial and torsional loads, they combine high performance with an extremely compact installation footprint.
Equipped with a central pneumatic cylinder and a pair of oversized guide rods, they ensure smooth and precise movement even under heavy-duty conditions.
Guidance Technology and Construction Features
CC Series cylinders are engineered to guarantee maximum reliability and durability over time through high-level design details:
-
Choice of Sliding Systems:
-
Self-lubricating bronze bushings: Standard with 4 bushings for any bore and stroke, produced on ultra-high-precision CNC lathes. Ideal for absorbing heavy loads and shock stresses.
-
Linear ball bearings (recirculating ball sleeves): Recommended for applications requiring high smoothness, speed, and extreme positioning accuracy.
-
-
Sandblasting Treatment: A surface treatment on the body that removes machining marks and increases surface hardness.
-
High-Flatness Front Plate: Machined and ground to ensure flex-free support when mating with other mechanical components.
-
Polyurethane Seals: High wear-resistant seals operational between -20°C and +80°C (up to +120°C in the high-temperature version).
Maximum Mounting Flexibility
The CC Series is designed to simplify machine integration:
-
Multi-Side Mounting: Ability to mount in various physical orientations (top, bottom, side, or via mounting brackets).
-
Supply Port Orientation: Pneumatic supply ports can be positioned according to the available space in the system.
Special Executions and Versions
To meet all industrial automation requirements, the series offers numerous custom variants upon request:
-
Double Plate (CC3146 Series): For balanced load control on both sides of the stroke.
-
Aggressive Environments: Versions with reinforced scrapers or metallic wipers to protect the rod from dust, chips, and abrasive impurities.
-
Corrosion Resistance: Translating components (guide rods, front plate, and hardware) manufactured entirely from stainless steel.
-
Extreme Conditions: Versions designed for high temperatures (up to +120°C), low speed with high loads, or adjustable stroke.
-
ATEX Certification: Available for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
