Air Cylinder Model Selection Procedures

Step

1
Obtain the bore of the cylinder tube. Refer to Graphs 1 and 2.

qDetermine the load factor in accordance with the purpose.

Purpose of operation Load factor

Series CS1 Static operation (clamping, low speed vise crimping, etc.) 0.7 or less
(70% or less)
1 or less
Horizontal movement of load on guide (100% or less)
Dynamic
operation 0.5 or less
Vertical and horizontal movement of the load (50% or less)(1)
Series CQ2
Series CA1 Note 1) If it is particularly necessary to operate at high speeds,
the load rate must be reduced further. (In the graph, it is
possible to select a load rate of 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, or less.)
wDetermine the operating pressure.
Series CG1 Generally, set the regulator to 85% of the source air pressure.
(In the graph, a selection between 0.2MPa and 0.8MPa is possible.)
eDetermine the direction in which the cylinder force will be used.
Extending side Refer to Graph 1.
Retracting side Refer to Graph 2.
Note: If the same load is applied both for pushing and pulling in a
horizontal operation, set the direction to the pulling side.
Series MB Series CM2 Step

2
Series CJ2 Take the impact at the stroke end into consideration.

qWhen an external stopper (shock absorber, etc.) is provided to

absorb the impact, select a stopper with sufficient absorption capacity.

wStopping the piston with the cylinder without a stopper:

Verify in Graphs 3 to 7 the absorption capacity of the cushion that is
enclosed in the cylinder.

1) Rubber bumper: Urethane rubber is used for preventing

metal-to-metal contact between the piston
and the cover.

2) Air cushion: The air in the exhaust side is compressed

slightly before the stroke end, and its reaction
force absorbs the kinetic energy of the load,
Step thus enabling the piston to stop quietly.

3 The aspects indicated below may need to be taken into

consideration, depending on how the cylinder is operated.

qIf a lateral load is applied to the piston rod:

Verify in Graphs 8 to 11 whether the lateral load is within an allowable
range.

wWhen using a cylinder with a relatively long stroke, if a buckling force

acts on the piston rod or the cylinder tube, verify in the table whether
Technical data for air cylinders the stroke or the operating pressure is within a safe range.
Step
For detailed technical data other than the air cylinder model
selection procedure, refer to p.5.6-1 to 5.6-8.

Obtain the cylinder's air consumption and required air volume.
Data 1: Tube Bore Selection (p.5.6-2 to 5.6-5)
Data 2: Air consumption and Required Air volume (p.5.6-6)
Obtain the air consumption (Graphs 12, 13) that is necessary for
Data 3: Theoretical Force Table (p.5.6-7 and 5.6-8)

The region that does not exceed the bold solid line represents the allowable lateral load in relation to the

wThe relationship between the cylinder size and the maximum stroke depending on the mounting style
Assuming that the force that is generated by the cylinder itself acts as a buckling force on the piston rod or on the
piston rod and the cylinder tube, the table below indicates in centimeters the maximum stroke that can be used,
which was obtained through calculation.
Therefore, it is possible to find the maximum stroke that can be used with each cylinder size according to the
relationship between the level of the operating pressure and the type of cylinder mounting, regardless of the load
factor.
Reference: Even under a light load, if the piston rod has been stopped by an external stopper at the extending side
of the cylinder, the maximum force generated by the cylinder will act upon the cylinder itself. P

Cylinder's air consumption and its required air volume

In equipment that uses a cylinder, air consumption is the volume of air that is consumed in the cylinder, or in the
piping between the cylinder and the switching valve, every time the switching valve operates. This is necessary for
selecting a compressor and for calculating the running cost. The required air volume is the volume of air that is
necessary for operating a specified load at a specified speed, and it is necessary for selecting the F.R.L. equipment
or the size of the upstream piping.

The piping length is the length of the steel pipe or tube that connects the cylinder with the
switching valve (solenoid valve, etc.).
Refer to p.5.6-6 for the dimensions (bore size and O.D.) of the steel tubing.

 Optimized Air Cylinder Drive System
Maximum Operating Speed Characteristics
How to View Graph

This graph shows the maximum speed when a cylinder

drive system is composed of ideal equipment. Divided
according to the series of the cylinder (CM2, CG1, CA1, CS1),
it indicates the maximum speed for every bore size, with a
load factor of 0% to 50%, as shown in the example diagram below.

Conditions
Pressure 0.5MPa
Piping length 5m
Cylinder stroke 300mm
Cylinder orientation Vertically upward
Load factor 0% to 50%

Example:
If the load factor is 30%, divide the portion between
0% to 50% into 5 parts, and find the speed at the
point that corresponds to 30%.

This graph shows the approach time when the drive system
of a small stroke cylinder is composed of ideal equipment.
Divided according to the series of the cylinder (CJ2, CQ2, CG1, CM2),
it indicates the approach time for every bore size, with a
load factor of 0% to 30%, as shown in the example diagram below.
