① Axial load thrust of the cylinder shall be confirmed according to the actual load situation of the required cylinder.

  ② Load rate η of the cylinder shall be confirmed according to the action situation of the load.

   Load rate has relationship with action speed of the cylinder, which is generally recommended as:

   Under static load or low speed: η≤0.7

   Speed 50~500mm/s: η≤0.5

   When speed ＞500mm/s: η≤0.3

  ③ Working pressure of the cylinder shall be confirmed according to the condition of air supply.

2. Confirm the cylinder stroke

  The stroke of the cylinder is pre-selected upon the operation distance of the cylinder and the stroke ratio of the

  transmission mechanism. To facilitate installing and debugging, the calculated stroke shall be with a proper margin.

  Standard strokes which can guarantee quick supply and low cost shall be selected as possible as you can.

3. Confirm the cylinder type

  The variety of the cylinder shall be selected according to the specific requirements of application and installation

  of  the cylinder.

4. Selection of buffer way of the cylinder

  There are different buffer devices equipped to the cylinders made by our company. Customer shall choose them

  according to the action situation of actual load. If both of the load and speed are higher,  it is difficult to absorb the

  impact only by the buffer of the cylinder. Therefore, buffer circuit must be designed or use external buffer to release

  the impact.

5. Confirm whether the cylinder has magnet

  Whether the cylinder has sensor switch shall be confirmed according to the actual situation and relative inducting

  switch shall be selected.

6. Selection of installation mode of the cylinder

  Installation mode of the cylinder shall be selected according to the application and installation  requirements of the

  cylinder.

7. Selection of connecting mode of piston rod of the cylinder

  After the cylinder is pre-selected, it is necessary to check the stability of piston rod ( especially the piston rod is

  thinner, longer and larger ) of the cylinder according to different installation modes and the air consumption under

  actual application condition shall be checked.
