The DGST pneumatic mini slide and yoke plate are machined from a single piece of aluminum, which results in low-torsion and no misalignment. A backlash-free piston rod/yoke connection contributes to the slide’s precision. Maintenance-free twin piston drives and high-force-capacity recirculating ball bearing guides provide the slide with power ranging from 7.6 to 132.6 lbf (34 to 590 N) at 6 bar. Cushioning and proximity sensors do not extend beyond the slide’s footprint. Three cushioning options are available. Two slides can be piggybacked in minutes by bolting the units together—adaptor plates are not needed.
