Technical Specifications of DSNU-16-70-P-A
The DSNU-16-70-P-A is a double-acting round pneumatic cylinder built as per ISO 6432 standards, ensuring universal compatibility and standardised dimensions. It features a 16 mm piston diameter and 70 mm stroke, providing effective force output for light-to-medium actuation tasks. With elastic cushioning rings/plates at both ends, it minimizes impact during piston return and advance, promoting longer equipment life and quieter operation.
Made with high-alloy stainless steel for the piston rod and anodised aluminium alloy for the body, this cylinder resists corrosion (CRC class 2), making it suitable for cleanroom and general industrial environments. It operates between 1 to 10 bar pressure, handles ambient temperatures from -20°C to 80°C, and is RoHS-compliant. It supports M5 pneumatic connections, optional mounting accessories, and proximity switch compatibility for stroke position detection in automation systems.
Application Use Cases – DSNU-12-70-P-A
The DSNU-12-70-P-A is ideal for applications that require compact yet precise movement. Its slim profile makes it perfect for equipment with limited space—such as electronics assembly lines, conveyor-based sorting machines, or fixture clamping systems. The 70 mm stroke offers enough travel for simple pushing, lifting, or positioning tasks without adding bulk.
In practical use, this model performs well in test setups, light packaging machinery, or automated part-feeding systems where repeated motion is required at high speed but with low to moderate force. Maintenance teams value it for its ISO standard design, which makes replacement and integration easier. And for engineers and students, it's a great example of how clean, responsive pneumatic actuation can be applied to solve real industrial problems efficiently.
Whether you're designing a new system or maintaining an existing one, the DSNU series—especially the 12-70-P-A—offers a great balance between performance, space efficiency, and reliability
