FAQ
Q ISO 15552 vs 6432?
A
15552 (formerly VDMA 24562): heavy-duty industrial cylinders, rectangular profile, 32-320 mm bore. 6432: small round cylinders, 8-25 mm bore, for electronics/pharma/light automation.
Q Calculating force?
A
Double-acting forward F = p × π × D² / 4. At 0.5 MPa with 50 mm bore, ~980 N. Size with 30-50% safety margin.
Q Why guidance for long stroke?
A
Strokes > 200 mm cause rod oscillation under side load, leading to uneven seal wear. Guided cylinders (Festo DGSL, SMC MGZ) carry 5-10x higher side loads.
