MLGP
The MGP is designed for high side load applications found in material handling, lifting and stopping. The cylinder utilizes an ultra-compact design by incorporating the cylinder body as part of the guide body. As the stroke length increases, so does the bearing length, thus enhancing the cylinder's load bearing capacity. Conventional designed guided cylinders have a set bearing length resulting in dramatic decreases in side load capacity as stroke lengths increase. The MGP is the latest generation of guided cylinders and offers higher load capability, longer strokes, 2 port locations, switch mounting grooves on two sides, and a more versatile T-slot mounting than the MGQ series. Order made options for this series include adjustable air cushions, heavy duty guide rods, copper free, high temperature, and low speed.

RHC
High speed or high load cylinder applications frequently require additional speed and flow control devices to control the stopping of the load. SMC's RHC series features a longer cushion design which is capable of stopping heavy or high speed loads while maintaining the simplicity of a standard air cushion cylinder. This enhanced cushion allows the kinetic distance, which results in the ability to absorb up to 23.8 ft-lb of energy and operate reliably at speeds up to 118 in/sec. Even with the improved performance of the RHC, cushion adjustment remains as simple as adjusting the cushion needle valve.

REA
When working with delicate materials such as Silicone wafers, magnetic disks, or LCD substrates, non-shock actuation must be balanced with high speed/throughput. The REA provides the features needed to allow rapid transfer with a speed of up to 300mm/sec but virtually eliminates shock impact. Integrated cushion spears allow smooth acceleration and deceleration, while also simplifying construction of the cylinder. Based on the magnetically coupled cylinder concept, the REA's resulting smooth acceleration and deceleration occurs without influence from load, speed, or even pressure fluctuations. REA is available in 5 bore sizes from 25mm to 63mm and strokes up to 1000mm

REC
The transportation of delicate items often requires greater control of cylinder acceleration and deceleration than is afforded by traditional air cushions. For this reason, SMC has developed the REC sine cylinder. The term "sine cylinder" is derived from the shape of the velocity curve at both ends of stroke. This control is achieved with the addition of two grooves on each cushion spear which results in a more gradual initial acceleration or deceleration and smooth transition to or from full speed operation. To accomplish this type of motion with a traditional cylinder typically requires extensive external flow control. REC is a repairable basic cylinder similar to the NCG series.

CVQ
Machine builders who traditionally use a cylinder and solenoid valve for pushing and clamping applications now have a space and time saving solution with the launch of SMC“s new Series CVQ cylinder and valve range.Developed initially to provide a unique all-in-one compact cylinder/valve system, engineers from world leaders SMC have simply taken their most popular compact CQ2 cylinder and V100 solenoid valve and literally built them together in one single unit. By adopting this innovative approach, the new CVQ cylinder range offers some major space savings as there is no need to allocate space for either the valve or the necessary piping. And by eliminating the piping, further performance benefits are also achieved such as reduced pressure drop and air consumption - by up to 37% per cycle - plus improved response speed when compared to previous separate cylinder and valve configurations. As a single one piece unit, the new CVQ only requires only three piping connections instead of seven connections as previously required thereby ensuring reduced labour time for both installation and maintenance.Currently the CVQ Series combines a double acting compact cylinder in either 32mm, 40mm, 50mm or 63mm bore sizes for application requiring cylinder speed of between 50 ? 500 mm/s and a 2 position solenoid valve, which is IP 40 dust proof and is available in low power consumption 24 or 12 V options.

CC
The air-hydro unit consists of a converter and a valve unit that are compactly integrated. It converts air pressure to an equivalent hydraulic pressure, and this hydraulic pressure is used for operating an actuator, thus solving the problem that is associated with the compression characteristics of air. Thus, in spite of using pneumatic equipment, it performs similarly to a hydraulic unit, operating at a consistent speed during starting or in the presence of load fluctuations, and at the same time solving the problems of sticking and slipping associated with low speed operations. This unit is ideal for achieving accurate and constant speed of the cylinder, intermediate stopping, skip movement, or for slow operation of a rotary actuator.
