Open Frame proportional controller Series OF
Modular system for proportional control of pressure, flow and position.
The Open Frame Controller can be easily configured to meet specific application needs, to provide the most efficient, turnkey solutions, this reducing assembly times and system complexity.
The different Head and Expansion modules can be combined and driven through simple serial communications, making the control of complex applications easier.
Typical applications could include the mixing of different gases, piloting different pressures in different parts of the machine.The new “Open Frame Controller” system is a platform for providing closed loop control of flow, pressure and position and is suitable for Industry 4.0 applications.
The system is composed of two base modules: Head and Expansion.

Anti-rotation guide units Series 45
Suitable for cylinders:
- DIN/ISO 6432 (Ø 12, 16, 20, 25 mm)
- ISO 15552, previous DIN/ISO 6431 (Ø 32, 40, 50, 63, 80, 100 mm)
Series 45 guide units can be used with all DIN/ISO 6432 cylinders of Ø 12 ÷ Ø 25 and ISO 15552, previous DIN/ISO 6431, cylinders of Ø 32 ÷ Ø 100.
They have been developed in order to prevent piston rod rotation and can support possible radial loads.
Series 45 guide units are available in three different models depending on the applicable loads.
The UT and HT guides with crawling supports are self lubricating, while HB guides have a ball bush.
To ensure the right choice of the loads in relation to the stroke, please refer to the graphs.
The shorter the stroke the higher will be the applicable loads.
Compact cylinders, Tandem and Multi-position versions Series 31
Double-acting, magnetic
Ø 12, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50, 63, 80, 100 mm
The compact dimensions allow Series 31 cylinders to be installed within very small spaces. These cylinders are suitable for use with feet, flange and trunnion mountings.
In order to complete the compact cylinder series, two new versions have been introduced: tandem and multi-position. The new Tandem version with 2, 3 or 4 stages generates a thrust force which is 2, 3 or 4 times that of the normal cylinder (standard traction force).
The Multi-position version allows a maximum of 3 different positions which are determined by the stroke of the individual actuators.
Cylinders ISO 15552 Series 63
Single and double-acting, magnetic, cushioned
Ø 32, 40, 50, 63, 80, 100, 125 mm
The Series 63 pneumatic cylinders have been developed to guarantee high performance and versatility.
Thanks to a new system of adjustable pneumatic cushioning, the cylinders can always guarantee the best regulation whilst significantly reducing noise caused by the impact of the piston on the end block.Besides the standard version, which can be used in many sectors, specific solutions have been developed for applications such as food processing, agriculture, in tensioning, dosing systems and dancer arms for winding applications.
There are also versions for demanding application environments, capable of withstanding extreme temperatures, corrosive atmospheres etc.
Series 16, 23, 24 and 25
Series 16: Ø 8, 10, 12 mm - non-magnetic
Series 23: Ø 16, 20, 25 mm - magnetic, auto-cushioned
Series 24: Ø 10, 12, 16, 20, 25, 32 mm - magnetic
Series 25: Ø 16, 20, 25, 32 mm - magnetic, cushioned
Series 16, 23, 24 and 25 mini-cylinders are designed according to ISO 6432. It is possible to choose from three different types of cushioning: mechanical (standard bumper on Series 16 and 24), adjustable pneumatic cushioning (Series 25) and pneumatic auto-cushioning (Series 23).
This last version, thanks to a patented system, automatically adjusts the cushioning in order to provide optimal deceleration during the entire cushioning phase.
The cylinder enjoys smooth, jolt-free movement, reducing vibrations and noise, while also guaranteeing high reliability and constant performance over time.
The adopted technical solutions and the choice of materials have provided the basis for a complete range of versatile and very reliable mini-cylinders.
They are suitable to be used in a multitude of industrial applications, especially where operating conditions undergo changes over time like for example wear of machine components.
Various mounting accessories are available to fix the cylinders in different ways.
Short-stroke cylinders Series RPA
Double-effect, magnetic
With hollow through rod and mounting stud
Bores: 20 and 30 mm
The Series RPA short stroke cylinders are double acting actuators with aluminium hollow through rod and mounting stud. Available in two sizes, Ø 20 and Ø 30 mm, with different strokes and dimensions of the mounting stud, these actuators are equipped with the non-rotating function of the rod.
The Series RPA are prepared for the mounting of magnetic sensors (Series CSD), in fact, on the external profile, along the cylinder tube, you can find sensor positioning slots.
Their compact and light design together with the adopted technical solutions make these cylinders suitable to be used, combined with suction pads, in End Of Arm Tooling (EOAT) systems, especially in the sector of plastic injection moulding.
