Composite air cylinders for medical and foodgrade applications

Thermoplastic hydraulic hose Kurt Hydraulics kurthydraulics.com

Compact Automation compactautomation.com The Composite Cylinder series is a linear actuator with a durable hollow rod option enabling use in vacuum pick-up applications in end-of-arm tooling. Designed in an equivalent size to Compact’s standard inch and metric series, the Composite Cylinders are 25-30% lighter than standard cylinders. This solution makes it possible for operators to either downsize a
