Can a blade cylinder be equipped with an integrated vacuum‑suction function? How should the piping be arranged?

Q: Can the blade cylinder have its own vacuum adsorption function? How to arrange the pipeline?

A：Sure. Blade cylinders on the market are dividedStandard typeandVacuum type。

• Vacuum type blade cylinderThe vacuum flow channel is preset inside, and the sliding table is provided with a suction port, which can be directly connected to the suction cup without the need for an external air pipe to follow the action, thus avoiding the risk of air pipe winding and fatigue fracture.

  
  

• Piping arrangement: The vacuum type cylinder is usually provided with a vacuum inlet (V port) on the rear end cover or side, which is directly connected to the sliding table through the internal air passage. This design not only looks neat, but also greatly improves the stability of the equipment under high-speed movement. If your existing cylinder does not have a vacuum function, you can also add an external hoop suction cup to achieve the adsorption function.
