FAQ
-
Q: Is there a difference in the operating pressure range between double-acting and single-acting models?
A: Yes. The pressure range for double-acting models is 0.1-0.6 MPa, while the pressure range for single-acting models is 0.25-0.6 MPa. When selecting a model, you should match it to your actual air system pressure.
-
Q: How do I choose the appropriate cylinder diameter based on my needs?
A: The cylinder diameter range is 10-25mm, and the selection should be based on the required gripping torque. For example, if the gripping torque requirement is 0.1N.m, a 10mm cylinder diameter (AMHC2-10D) is recommended; if the gripping torque requirement is 1.36N.m, a 25mm cylinder diameter (AMHC2-25D) is recommended.
