Technical Tips

●What is an air bearing cylinder?
　This is an air cylinder that utilizes air bearings in the rod guide section, offering zero sliding resistance and making it ideal for ultra-precise control. Fujikura Composite offers a product lineup of air bearing cylinders with diameters ranging from 4 to 63 mm and strokes from 5 to 80 mm.These cylinders are well-suited for applications requiring high-precision thrust control, such as semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and we have a proven track record of success in these fields.

●About the Slim Air Bearing Cylinder
・Product Design
　We have achieved an astonishingly slim profile of just 22 mm from the base to the tip of the rod, and we offer a compact model with an outer diameter of 47 mm. Thanks to this groundbreaking size, the “ACS-20-5” is the ideal solution for saving space, miniaturizing, and reducing the weight of equipment.

・Intended Applications
　It excels in a wide range of fields requiring advanced precision control, such as semiconductor manufacturing equipment, medical devices, and precision measuring instruments. Despite its extremely compact size, it delivers high performance, enabling it to simultaneously meet the seemingly conflicting demands of equipment miniaturization and high precision.
