What is the service life of AirTAC cylinders?

There are many factors that affect the life of the cylinder, but under permissible conditions, it is 100,000 kilometers. For example, a cylinder with a stroke of 1m, It can operate 10 million times. If it operates once every 5 seconds, 8 hours a day, and 5 days a week, it can be used for about 5 years. Generally, cylinders do not use the number of times to describe their lifespan. They often use strokes to describe them. However, good quality cylinders will not be specially tested because they can last a long time with normal use.

What is the service life of an SMC cylinder?

SMC cylinders generally have a long service life, about 5 million times of expansion and contraction. Normally, they can be used for 3 years. about.

smc cylinderThe initial movement is relatively slow. This situation is mainly due to leakage in the system. At this time, you should check the position of the liquid in the hydraulic tank, the seals and pipe joints on the suction side of the hydraulic pump, and whether the suction strainer has not been cleaned for a long time. If this is the case, the hydraulic oil should be replenished in time, the seals and pipe joints should be processed, and the coarse filter element should be thoroughly cleaned or directly replaced.

SMC cylinders generally do not require internal maintenance. What is said that maintenance is not required is the internal part, which contains lubricating oil, but if it is contaminated, it will not work. The external guide rod must be cleaned frequently to avoid dust entering the interior or adhering to the surface of the guide rod, resulting in erratic movement. Smooth, maintenance is indispensable.
