The Festo STA-20-15-P-A is a high-quality stopper cylinder designed for robust performance in automated material handling systems. This component is engineered to provide precise and reliable stopping action for workpiece carriers, pallets, and packages weighing up to 150 kg. Its compact design allows for easy integration into existing conveyor lines, ensuring minimal disruption to your workflow.
Crafted from durable materials, the STA-20-15-P-A features flexible cushioning rings at both ends, which contribute to a gentle stopping process, free from impact vibrations and noise. This is particularly beneficial in environments where the protection of delicate goods is paramount.
The stopper cylinder is single-acting with spring return, ensuring a fail-safe operation in the event of pressure loss. For applications requiring a double-acting function, the cylinder can be easily converted by removing the filter nipple in the exhaust port, which then serves as a supply port.
Additionally, the STA-20-15-P-A is designed to accommodate direct mounting of solenoid valves on its flange plate, facilitating fast and direct actuation. This feature is especially useful for rapid and individual control of stopper cylinders over long distances.
For precise position sensing, the cylinder is compatible with proximity sensors that can be seamlessly integrated into its profile barrel. This allows for space-saving and accurate detection of the piston rod's position, enhancing the overall efficiency of the automation process.
The Festo STA-20-15-P-A is a testament to Festo's commitment to innovation and quality, offering a reliable solution for your material handling needs while maintaining a high level of performance and durability.
