Compact Slide

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document outlines the technical specifications and enhancements of the MXH series compact slide, emphasizing its increased rigidity and reduced weight due to a new high rigidity linear guide and piston. The model offers improved allowable moments, enhancing efficiency for various applications.
Specifications: The MXH series includes models MXH6, MXH10, MXH16, and MXH20, with bore sizes from 6mm to 20mm and stroke lengths from 5mm to 60mm. It operates with double-acting air at a maximum pressure of 0.7 MPa and a piston speed range of 50 to 500 mm/s.
Improvements: The new MXH model improves allowable moments by 2.4 times compared to previous models, with enhancements in yaw, roll, and pitch moments. The weight is reduced by 19% for the ø20-10 stroke model.
Mounting and Application: The MXH series supports four-direction mounting and is compatible with existing models, suitable for applications requiring high rigidity and precision.
Model Selection: Detailed graphs and tables assist in selecting the appropriate model based on mounting orientation, speed, load eccentricity, and overhang, emphasizing theoretical output and displacement considerations.
Construction and Materials: Main components are made of aluminum alloy and stainless steel, with hard anodized and nickel-plated finishes. The series is not designed for disassembly.
Additional Features: Supports small auto switches and offers made-to-order options for special requirements like low-speed cylinders and fluororubber seals.
Conclusion: The MXH series offers significant improvements in rigidity and weight reduction, making it versatile for various industrial applications.
Specifications and Components: Detailed specifications include dimensions, bore sizes, and auto switch models, with mounting positions and heights for auto switches.
Auto Switch Mounting and Connection: Instructions for mounting auto switches, including connection methods for 2-wire and 3-wire switches, emphasizing proper load voltage and connection to avoid malfunctions.
Additional Machining and Customization: Outlines possibilities for additional machining and customization, with tolerances and special machining requests.
Made to Order Options: Describes options like low-speed cylinders and special port locations, with specifications and requirements.
Operating Precautions: Warns against hazards like hazardous gases from grease and injury risks, advising on speed control and avoiding excessive vibration.
Mounting Instructions: Provides detailed instructions for mounting in various orientations, specifying bolt sizes and tightening torques.
Safety and Handling: Emphasizes reading safety instructions and handling precautions, directing users to additional resources.
Front and Top Mounting Specifications: Provides bolt sizes and tightening torques for front and top mounting, stressing adherence to specifications.
How to Mount a Workpiece: Instructions for mounting workpieces, emphasizing care to avoid impacts and ensuring proper alignment.
Safety Instructions: Highlights the responsibility of designers for product compatibility, operation by trained personnel, and special safety considerations.
