A cylinder is a device that converts the pressure energy of compressed air into mechanical energy and belongs to pneumatic actuators.
Main structure:
Cylinder barrel: The main body of a cylinder that guides the piston to move in a straight line.
End cap: Seal both ends of the cylinder, forming a closed space with the cylinder.
Piston: It moves back and forth within the cylinder, separating two chambers.
Piston rod: connects the piston to external loads and transmits mechanical energy.
Seals: Ensure the sealing of the cylinder to prevent gas leakage.
