Product Description
- The SMC CG3-Z1 pneumatic cylinder is suitable for linear motion applications in general mechanical and plant engineering.
- It is used, for example, in automation systems, assembly equipment, handling systems and packaging machines for pushing, clamping, positioning or feeding workpieces.
- The short design is particularly suitable for applications with limited installation space.
- The version with a solenoid is ideal when the piston position needs to be monitored via a signal transmitter or integrated into the machine control system.
- The SMC CG3-Z1 pneumatic cylinder is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a single-ended piston rod featuring an external thread.
- The short design allows for space-saving integration and is more compact and lighter than the previous series.
- The cylinder features elastic damping and is lubricated for the entire service life, meaning that no relubrication is required.
- The integrated magnet enables the use of signal transmitters to detect the piston position.
