PHD, Inc. AVF 1X1-U Double Acting Pneumatic Cylinder

PHD AVF 1X1-U is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder built for compact linear actuation, featuring a 1" bore and a 1" stroke. In a double-acting configuration, air pressure drives both extension and retraction, enabling controlled, bidirectional motion without the need for a return spring. With a 1" bore, the piston area and resulting actuation force scale with pressure to perform light- to moderate-duty short-stroke moves in automated systems. The 1" stroke provides a precise 1-inch travel path, ideal for tasks that require repeatable positioning within limited space. This model is suited to applications such as part transfer, fixture actuation, indexing, and clamping tasks in compact automation lines, packaging equipment, or bench-top test setups where space constraints are a priority. As part of the AVF family from PHD, Inc., the AVF 1X1-U integrates into standard pneumatic workflows that rely on straightforward, clean actuation using compressed air. For design and installation, practitioners should match system pressure and mounting arrangements to achieve the intended motion profile and cycle cadence.
