Festo is a globally recognized leader in industrial automation and motion control. Known for German precision and innovation, Festo products are widely used across Indian industries, from automotive to electronics. Their pneumatic components, especially round cylinders, are trusted by maintenance engineers, machine builders, and engineering students alike for consistent performance, long service life, and reliable availability.
The DSNU-16-F1A model is a compact, high-performance round cylinder with a piston diameter of 16 mm and a stroke range from 1 to 200 mm. It is a double-acting unit designed for compressed air operation up to 10 bar, conforming to ISO 6432 standards. This cylinder stands out with three types of cushioning options—elastic, adjustable pneumatic, and self-adjusting pneumatic end cushioning—offering maximum flexibility depending on the application dynamics. With an M6 piston rod thread and M5 pneumatic port, it’s optimized for compact assemblies. The materials used—anodised aluminium cover, stainless steel piston rod and barrel—ensure cleanroom compliance and corrosion resistance. Its design supports multiple mounting options and compatibility with proximity sensors for accurate stroke feedback.
The DSNU-12-70-P-A, a related compact cylinder, is ideal for tasks requiring fast, controlled motion in tight spaces. This includes precise ejection mechanisms, sensor-triggered part movement, and synchronized pushing or stopping operations in small conveyors or packaging stations. Its adjustable cushioning protects both the cylinder and the machine, making it suitable for repetitive motion tasks. Whether you are a junior maintenance engineer learning system integration or a senior technician optimizing cycle times, this model simplifies setup while delivering reliable stroke control—making it an excellent choice in labs, assembly lines, or automated inspection units.
