Help with Pneumatic Rotary Actuators specifications:
Actuator Style
Back to Top
|
| ||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Rack and Pinion (Single) / Helical | The actuator drives a single rack that rotates the pinion. | ||
| Rack and Pinion (Double & Four Piston) / Helical | Two or four actuators drive the racks on both sides of the pinion. | ||
| Rotary Vane (Single) | The rotary vane is directly actuated by pressurized air. | ||
| Rotary Vane (Double) | Two chambers of pressure produces increased torque when compared with a single vane. | ||
| Multi-Motion (Linear & Rotary) | Rotary vane and linear actuators combined for compound motion. | ||
| Other | Other unlisted or specialized style. | ||
| Search Logic: | All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches. | ||
