Air Index Cylinder MDF series
A rotary shaft type pneumatic indexing intermittent device that can be used as if it were an air cylinder.
Its internal cam structure ensures secure and accurate positioning.
This device's compact design also saves drive unit space.
Technical InformationHighlights
-
Index Like an Air Cylinder
Easy control via pneumatic control with solenoid valve.
-
One-way Endless Rotation
Indexing operation via cam meshing rotates endlessly in the same direction.
-
No Need to Specify Rotational Direction
Double-shaft type enables any direction of rotation.
-
Zero Cumulative Errors
No cumulative errors due to cam indexing.
-
No Shaft Return
Its rotating shaft has a built-in one-way clutch to prevent shaft return.
-
No Overruns
No overruns occur at the indexing completion position due to its reliable indexing stop structure.
-
Maintenance-free
Its grease-filled body does not require lubrication for its rated life.
