FAQs
Begin by verifying the existing mounting pattern matches the UH center/trunnion configuration of the PQA/182040/40. Use the adjustable centre trunnion to align the actuator with your tooling and downstream components. Leverage the CAD drawings and the datasheet to confirm clearances, rod end fittings, and mounting screws. This approach minimizes rework, speeds up commissioning, and ensures repeatable actuation across cycles.
The 40 mm bore defines the actuator’s nominal diameter and influences available force and stroke options within the same footprint. Although stroke is not specified here, the bore contributes to repeatable actuation force and speed under standard pneumatic supply. For exact performance curves, consult the Datasheet PDF and CAD resources to match pressure, load, and cycle requirements to your application.
Yes, when paired with appropriate valve sizing and a matched control strategy, a 40 mm bore cylinder can support reliable, high-speed actuation for pick-and-place and clamping tasks. The key is ensuring ample response time, proper cushioning, and alignment. The adjustable UH mounting aids multi-axis positioning, reducing mechanical interference and improving cycle accuracy in tight spaces.
Check for CE conformity and any machine-safety certifications relevant to your region and industry. Also confirm IP ratings for environmental protection and SIL considerations if your safety case requires them. Since the available data does not specify certifications, verify with your distributor or the datasheet to confirm regulatory compliance for your machine.
Downloadable CAD files and the Datasheet PDF provide dimensional data, installation guidance, and performance figures to support design reviews. Leverage these resources to validate fit, plan preventive maintenance, and quantify uptime improvements. The combination of precise actuation, easy mounting, and standard interfaces typically reduces assembly time and lower lifecycle costs in automation cells.
