PNEUMATIC LINEAR SLIDES FOR AUTOMATED ASSEMBLY EQUIPMENT What to look for when searching for the best slide for your industrial application A member of Festo Group
Open the catalog to page 1A member of Festo Group Pneumatic linear slides are a popular choice for automated industrial applications due to their low-maintenance design, cleanliness, ability to withstand extreme operating conditions and proven reliability. Capabilities range from simple pressing operations to demanding multi-axis robotics applications. And linear slides can be found in a diverse group of applications—including packaging, automotive, robotics, medical imaging and general industrial applications. The linear slide combines an air cylinder power source with a guide mechanism to support the workload over...

Both tandem and Multi-Power ® cylinders use multiple pistons to create low-pressure hydraulics using only shop pressure, adding extra air pressure to increase force. CUSTOM OPTIONS Sometimes your application demands something entirely new. Beyond the basics, there are options that will allow you to custom tailor your linear slide to best fit the application. Often these include toolbar and toolplate styles. However, one of the most important modifications you could make to your linear slide is the addition of the sensor. Adjustable extend stroke stop...
Open the catalog to page 3A member of Festo Group Linear bearings are also rated to support the load, especially in an overhung situation. For example, linear ball bearings can be rated for 20 pounds with a 0.005 deflection on an overhung load, which may sound as though it can’t do the job. However, when all bearings are put together, they have a total load capacity of several hundred pounds, producing the “over-capacity” to assure precision and longevity even in overhung situations. PACKAGED PNEUMATIC LINEAR SLIDES Sometimes, performing the many calculations needed to create your ideal pneumatic linear slide can be...
Open the catalog to page 4A member of Festo Group STROKE Stroke is a straightforward factor when selecting your linear slide. Linear slides are often offered in one-inch stroke increments, commonly slightly longer than the application requires for “safety travel,” which allows for a safe stopping time. You should generally specify a stroke slightly longer than your application requires and make use of the adjustable stops offered as an option on most slides. These hard stops allow you to dial in a stopping accuracy within +/- 0.001 inch. There are many stop options available, including clamp collars, or a threaded...
Open the catalog to page 5A member of Festo Group QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE TO FABCO-AIR LINEAR SLIDES GB500-4 GB500-4 “L” & “S” Series (sleeve bearings) An inexpensive series using non-repairable air cylinders. The “L” Series is similar to the “EZ” Series while the “S” Series is similar to the “SE”. Note: Sleeve bearings need clearance to operate. Therefore some toolbar play exists. “L” & “S” slides are not intended for ultra-precision applications. “GB” Series (sleeve bearings) Air cylinder is machined into bearing block. Standard features include bottom, side and rear mounting holes, top and side ports. Toolbar with...
