Overview
The Bimba CPT-01650-A Pneu-Turn rotary actuator is a double-acting pneumatic actuator engineered for controlled rotational motion in industrial automation systems. Built with corrosive resistant components including 304 stainless steel gear shaft and cylinder bodies, anodized aluminum housing and end caps, the CPT-01650-A delivers reliability in harsh environments. Standard models include a self-lubricating sintered iron copper shaft bearing, minimizing maintenance requirements for continuous operation.
Key Features
- 304 stainless steel gear shaft and cylinder bodies provide corrosion resistance
- Self-lubricating sintered iron copper shaft bearing reduces maintenance downtime
- Compact rack-and-pinion design optimizes space utilization
- Optional shaft ball bearings available for enhanced precision applications
- Double-acting pneumatic operation for bidirectional control
Technical Specifications
The Bimba Pneu-Turn line features multiple bore sizes and rotation angles to meet diverse application requirements. Standard rotation angles include 45°, 90°, 180°, 270°, and 360° configurations. Porting options support NPT threaded connections for pneumatic supply.
Typical Applications
Bimba Pneu-Turn rotary actuators excel in precision indexing, clamping, and camming operations across manufacturing and process automation. Rack and pinion rotary actuators are used in material transfer operations and applications such as clamping, camming, indexing, and mixing. The corrosion-resistant design makes the CPT-01650-A suitable for food processing, chemical handling, and outdoor equipment applications.
