Pneumatic Cylinder Supplier for Industrial Automation

A pneumatic cylinder converts compressed air into stable linear push-pull force. It typically consists of a cylinder tube (6063 aluminum extrusion or stainless steel), a piston rod, end caps, a piston, and sealing elements.

Whether you need a quick ISO standard replacement, anti-rotation for off-center loads, or a long-stroke, space-saving rodless design, we offer the right series and an order-ready parameter checklist for each option.

You only need to provide the following information:

• Current brand + model (a nameplate photo is best)
• Bore × stroke
• Mounting style (foot, flange, trunnion, etc., or a photo of the mounting position)
• Port thread (G/PT/NPT) and port size
• Cushioning and sensor needs (adjustable cushioning? need a magnetic switch?)
• Working pressure / temperature, and whether there is off-center load / side load

Send your current model / nameplate photo and bore × stroke.

We will first check interchangeability and confirm mounting dimensions, then quote after everything is verified.

Guided pneumatic cylinders (guiding anti-rotation side load)

When your station does more than simple push-pull, you may face off-center load or side load, anti-rotation needs at the rod end, fixture positioning, or slide-table motion and alignment.

A standard cylinder can easily bind, vibrate, or drift off position. For these conditions, choose a guided cylinder or a slide-table cylinder.

Twin rod guided

Three-rod guided

Guided slide

Twin rod guided CXS TN JMGP MGG

Twin-rod guided cylinders use dual guide rods and a guide frame to transfer load into the guiding unit.

Three-rod three-axis guided MGP MGJ MGPW TB TCM TCL

A three-rod / three-axis guided structure spreads the load across multiple guide rods and guiding components.

Guided slide table CXSW

When a station needs loaded linear sliding and positioning, a standard cylinder can bind or vibrate due to side load and limited anti-rotation.

This can cause misalignment and strong end impact.

In this case, a slide-table guided cylinder with an integrated guide block is a better choice.

• CXSW Series Dual Rod Pneumatic Slide Cylinders

  CXSW dual rod slide cylinders fit linear sliding, positioning, and clamping stations in automation equipment. The twin-rod structure provides better anti-rotation and stability.

Documents inspection

Before shipment, we inspect critical dimensions, key mating surfaces, and key functions against your drawing or the relevant standard.

We provide the supporting documents to help your internal acceptance and later traceability.

• Material / traceability: Material certificates and batch information for key parts, for traceability and consistent repeat orders.
• Dimensional inspection report: Inspection of key mounting dimensions, port threads, and stroke-related sizes per drawing / standard.
• Surface treatment statement: Hard anodizing / anodizing / chemical oxidation / electrophoresis, etc. (based on your selected configuration).
• Assembly & air tightness test: Pre-shipment assembly checks and air-tightness / functional test records (to ensure no leakage and smooth action).

If your project requires a specific document format or extra clauses (such as reports based on your IQC form / inspection items), tell us in your inquiry.

Surface treatment and manufacturing risk control

A pneumatic cylinder works under internal pressure and repeated motion.

Two factors truly decide service life and stability: bore accuracy/roughness, and consistent wear resistance on the surface.

Bore accuracy and roughness: directly affect friction and seal life

If the cylinder runs smoothly and seals last longer, the key is the cylinder tube bore.

We use honing / fine grinding on the tube bore.

We inspect critical bore indicators to your drawing or standard.

The goal is:

• Low friction: smoother motion, no vibration at higher speed
• More stable seal life: less uneven wear and lower early air-leak risk
• Better consistency: easier batch assembly and less commissioning time

Surface treatment options: control wear resistance and consistency

Different conditions (high cycle, dust, light-load high speed, corrosive environments) need different surface performance.

We offer common options:

• Hard anodizing: our first choice for low friction, high wear resistance, and long service life
• Chemical oxidation: for general protection and consistent appearance
• Electrophoresis (optional): when you care more about appearance consistency and corrosion resistance

Just tell us your environment (dust / humidity / corrosion), cycle rate (high cycle / normal), and whether wear is severe. We will recommend the most suitable surface option.
