Bimba Cylinder
The Bimba Twist Clamp Cylinder combines linear and 90-degree rotary motion with an internal pin/cam mechanism. The rotary action moves a clamping arm away from the work piece, allowing for easy loading and unloading of parts. As the cylinder extends, the pin follows the groove and creates 90 degrees of rotary motion.
Standard U.S. customary (inch) threads for ports, mounting, and rods
Maximum Operating Pressure: 140 PSI
Temperature Range: 15° to 160°F
Lubrication: PTFE grease
Anodized aluminum clamp arm ordered separately as an accessory kit
Piston seal: Nitrile (high-temperature option available)
The Bimba Ultran® Band rodless cylinder features a specially engineered sealing strip which outperforms all other band sealing systems on the market. A stainless steel cover strip protects the sealed area and prolongs the life of the band. These cylinders are used in a variety of applications including opening/closing doors, conveying, packaging, and more.

The Bimba Ultran® High Load Slides have large load bearing capabilities, 304 stainless steel body, “U” Cup seals for lower dynamic friction, greater carriage precision, and leak-free construction. The base model UHL offers both axial and alternate port locations. These actuators are repairable, and must be sent to Bimba for any repairs needed.
Bore sizes: 1-1/16", 1-1/4", 1-1/2"
Easily accessible carriage lubrication port
Internally lubricated piston seals for long life
Stroke lengths to 132"
Shock absorbers to decelerate loads
Optional bumpers to reduce noise
The Ultran® Slide features built in guides for self-guided motion with about 50% space savings over conventional cylinders. These actuators are pre-lubricated at the factory, which greatly increases cylinder life. They are designed to handle side and moment loads. These load carrying capabilites can be enhanced by ordering external shock absorbers.
Bore sizes: 5/16", 7/16", 9/16", 3/4", 7/8", 1-1/16", 1-1/4", 1-1/2", 2"
Options include stroke adjustment (both ends or one end)
Accessories include shock absorbers, stroke adjustments, and stop collars
Temperature range: 0°F to 170°F
Optional bumpers to reduce noise
Midstroke and end of stroke position sensing available
