Round cylinders for easy clean applications

Gepubliceerd op: 07-06-2022

Pneumission has further developed pneumatic cylinders for food processing machines and agricultural applications.

 

These pneumatic actuators can be cleaned with water easy.

In environments with high hygienic demands it is very important that the machines must be cleaned with water and cleaning soaps every day.

Standard pneumatic cylinders have aluminum cylinder tube, endcaps and mounting parts. These will have corrosion when cleaned with water.

Corrosion can bring particles on the food which is forbidden if this food is for human consumption.

 

 

The Plastic (POM) end caps are ideal for applications that have exposure to moisture and specific solvents.

The material of the cylinder tube if made from Stainless Steel 304. The piston rod is also ss304 and has a polyurethane seal/rod wiper, Viton is optional. Inside the cylinder the Piston seal is made from Viton.

There are three mounting brackets for the rear endcap.

Most of the basic materials are made in China but the seals are imported from abroad.

 

Pneumission already produces the ISO 15552 cylinder from stainless steel but these still have corners were contaminations cannot be washed away. In case of food machines this will not be accepted because the food can start to rot.

Therefor Pneumission developed these round air pressure cylinders where contamination cannot find a place to stick and will be washed out.

 

In agricultural applications such as Pig Feeding Systems these air pressure actuators are absolutely the best solution. Although in the stables there is no water cleaning but the ammonia in the air will cause corrosion of the pneumatics components. These small round cylinders  can be used for pig feeding systems were the cylinder opens a special valve to release the liquid food to the pigs.

 

These pneumatic round cylinders are made in China and not according to any ISO standard but interchangeable with most pneumatic cylinders from the USA, for example Bimba and Humphrey.

The life cycle time is very high and the price is very acceptable.
