Overview
The Festo DZH-50-125-PPV-A is a compact flat-shaped double-acting pneumatic cylinder engineered for high-density applications where space is limited. Rated for 10 bar (145 psi) operating pressure, this cylinder features a 50mm piston diameter and 125mm stroke length, making it ideal for manufacturing, assembly, and process automation systems. The non-rotating design with integrated magnet supports proximity sensor feedback, while adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends ensures smooth deceleration and impact protection.
