Airpot Products

Airpot Precision Dashpots are renowned for their ability to provide accurate and repeatable motion control. They utilize a unique combination of graphite pistons and borosilicate glass cylinders, ensuring low friction and high reliability. These dashpots are ideal for applications such as vibration damping, spring damping, solenoid damping, and controlling free-fall velocity.

Key features include:

• Push, pull, or two-way damping options.
• Bore diameters ranging from 0.22 inches to 1.75 inches.
• Stroke lengths from 0.5 inches to 3 inches.
• Customizable configurations to meet specific application needs.

Airpot pneumatic shock absorbers, also known as snubbers, are designed for precise energy dissipation and impact control. They use a unique combination of graphite pistons and borosilicate glass cylinders, ensuring low friction and high reliability. These shock absorbers are ideal for applications requiring accurate end-of-stroke damping, noise reduction, and wear minimization.

Key features include:

• One-way damping (compression only).
• Low force return springs for self-resetting.
• Wide operating temperature range (-55°C to +150°C for some models).
• Available in bore sizes from 0.627 inches to 1.75 inches and stroke lengths of 1.1 to 2.3 inches.

Airpot pneumatic actuators are designed for applications requiring precise force control and low friction. They are known for their unique combination of graphite pistons and borosilicate glass cylinders, which ensure smooth operation and high reliability. These actuators are ideal for tasks like applying a precise force, counterbalancing, or creating uniform motion.

Key features include:

• Low friction and high sensitivity for accurate control.
• Wide temperature range compatibility.
• Customizable configurations to suit specific needs.

Airpel Anti-Stiction Air Cylinders are a specialized class of pneumatic actuators designed for highly accurate force control. They feature a unique combination of graphite pistons and borosilicate glass cylinders, ensuring extremely low friction and smooth operation. These cylinders are ideal for applications requiring precise, jerk-free motion.

Key features include:

• Low starting and running friction, responding to forces as low as a few grams and pressures below 0.2 psi.
• Uniform smoothness throughout the stroke, preventing jerky starts.
• Wide temperature range compatibility, unaffected by extreme variations.
• Clean operation, with no lubricants or liquids to leak.
• High durability, capable of millions of cycles without significant wear.

The Airpel-AB® Cylinder is a cutting-edge pneumatic actuator that utilizes air bearing technology to achieve frictionless motion. It features a specially shaped stainless steel piston and a borosilicate glass cylinder, creating a cushion of air around the piston when compressed air is applied. This design ensures smooth, precise motion and exceptional longevity.

Key features include:

• Force Without Friction® technology, enabling highly accurate force control.
• Wide temperature range compatibility, from -20°C to +90°C.
• Clean operation, with no lubrication required.
• Durability, supporting millions of cycles without significant wear.
• Applications: Ideal for tasks like precise tensioning, clamping fragile materials, counterbalancing, and laboratory testing.
