Product Detailed Description:
The CY3R Series represents the pinnacle of space-saving pneumatic technology. As a Magnetically Coupled Rodless Cylinder, it eliminates the need for an external piston rod, reducing the required installation space by up to 50% compared to conventional cylinders.
The "R" in CY3R specifically denotes its Non-rotating design, featuring an integrated guide rail that ensures the slider remains perfectly oriented throughout the stroke without the need for external stabilizers. Built with a high-grade stainless steel barrel and powerful rare-earth magnets, this cylinder provides high holding force and smooth linear motion. Whether you are replacing SMC CY3R units or designing a new high-speed automation line, our factory-direct CY3R series delivers OEM-level performance with significantly lower acquisition costs.
Product Feature :
1. Space-Saving Design: No external rod allows for much longer strokes within a compact footprint.
2. Non-Rotating Accuracy: Integrated rail prevents slider rotation, ideal for precision offset loads.
3. Leak-Free Operation: The magnetic coupling ensures no external air leakage, even during high-cycle operations.
4. Highly Durable: Stainless steel body provides excellent resistance to wear and corrosion.
5. SMC Interchangeable: Standard mounting dimensions for seamless drop-in replacement.

1. Automated Conveying and Material Handling:
The rodless design is a game-changer for long-stroke transfer systems. By eliminating the protruding piston rod, the CY3R allows for efficient material movement in tight spaces where traditional cylinders cannot fit. It is widely used in logistics and warehouse automation for cross-conveyor transfers and high-speed pusher systems, offering a reliable, low-maintenance solution for continuous industrial use.
2. Electronics and Precision Assembly:
The non-rotating accuracy is vital for the electronics sector. In PCB handling and smartphone assembly lines, the payload must remain perfectly aligned. The CY3R’s integrated guide rail maintains orientation without extra stabilizers, making it perfect for delicate pick-and-place tasks. Its clean, leak-free magnetic coupling also makes it suitable for semi-conductor cleanroom environments.
3. Packaging and Printing Machinery:
In high-cycle packaging lines, the CY3R provides smooth linear motion for labeling, film-cutting, and capping. Its stainless steel construction resists the wear of rapid, repetitive cycles, while the compact design allows for multi-axis synchronization in complex machinery, maximizing throughput in high-density production environments.
Installation and Usage:
1. Pre-Installation Inspection: Verify that the total load remains within the rated magnetic holding force. Clean the stainless steel tube surface to remove debris or metallic particles that might obstruct slider movement.
2. Mounting Precautions: Align the load precisely with the cylinder axis. Mount the unit on a flat, level surface to prevent body distortion, ensuring the integrated guide rail operates smoothly without friction.
3. Air Supply & Regulation: Use 40μm filtered, dry compressed air. Always install flow control valves at the ports to regulate speed and prevent violent end-of-stroke impacts that could decouple the internal magnets.
4. Auto-Switch Adjustment: Slide sensors into the integrated rails and secure them at required positions. Ensure no strong external magnetic fields are nearby, as they can cause sensor errors or affect coupling stability.
5. Operation & Maintenance: Maintain piston speeds between 50-400mm/s. This pre-lubricated unit requires no additional oiling. Regularly inspect mounting bolts and air fittings for tightness to ensure safe, leak-free, and stable operation.
FAQ
Q1. Is the CY3R series fully interchangeable with the SMC brand?
A1. Absolutely. Our CY3R series is manufactured according to international mounting standards and is 100% interchangeable with the SMC CY3R series in terms of dimensions, port sizes, and performance specifications.
Q2. What is the maximum stroke length you can provide?
A2. While standard strokes go up to 1000mm, we can manufacture custom strokes up to 6000mm (for bore size 63mm) depending on your application needs. Please contact our support team for specific stroke feasibility.
Q3. What materials are used to ensure the magnetic holding force?
A3. We use high-performance rare-earth permanent magnets to ensure a strong and stable magnetic coupling. This prevents the slider from decoupling even under high speeds and heavy loads.
Q4.Can I mount auto-switches to these cylinders for position feedback?
A4.Yes. The CY3R series features integrated switch rails. You can easily mount D-A93 or D-Z73 type magnetic sensors (or equivalent) to achieve precise end-of-stroke or intermediate position detection.
Q5. Does the cylinder require lubrication during its service life?
A5. The CY3R series is designed for non-lube operation. It is pre-lubricated with high-grade grease during assembly. If you choose to use a lubricator, ensure it is maintained throughout the cylinder’s life.
Q6.Are you a trading company or a source factory?
A6. We are a professional source factory specializing in pneumatic components. By purchasing from us, you get direct-from-factory pricing, strict quality control, and professional technical support without any middleman markups.
Q7. Do you support OEM and ODM customization?
A7.Yes, we provide full OEM/ODM services. We can laser-mark your brand logo on the cylinders and customize specific stroke lengths or mounting configurations to meet your unique equipment requirements.
Q8. What is the standard lead time for shipping?
A8.For standard bore sizes and strokes, we maintain a deep stock and can ship within 3-5 business days. For large bulk orders or customized OEM products, the lead time typically ranges from 10-15 days.
