Pneumatic Actuators

Geko pneumatic actuators used compressed air to exert force on a cylinder piston and thus push or pull it in a specific direction. The motion of the piston is delivered to the parts to be moved via the piston rod or magnetic friction closure. A pneumatic cylinder is an actuator operated with compressed air usually up to a maximum of 12 bar to generate a linear or rotary motion.

Different Pneumatic Actuators Types

1.GKP series pneumatic actuators are of rack and pinion type, suitable for applications that require stroke lengths beyond the practical limits of ball screws and thrust forces that exceed the capabilities of belt drive.

2.GKSF series pneumatic actuators are with scotch yoke mechanism and with 90° rotation.

3.GKSL series pneumatic actuators  use compressed air to act on a piston inside  in order to create the required movement.

Pneumatic Actuators Working Principle

  • Pneumatic actuators used compressed air to create force on a cylinder piston and then push or pull it in a specific direction. The motion of the piston is delivered to the parts to be moved via the piston rod or magnetic friction closure.
