Key Features

Why choose an Aventics RCM Series Rotary Compact Cylinder
1

Key Features

With an optimised torque-space ratio, the RCM series is capable of putting out the highest possible torque for a cylinder of its size.
2

Key Features

The RCM series features an opposed rack/pinion drive and rotary flange combination as the driving force behind the high torque output.
3

Key Features

The RCM series cylinders are all compact and incredibly easy to install and connect up.

Device Function

The RCM Rotary Compact Module operates using two double-acting pistons. These pistons transfer force synchronously to the ball-bearing pinion through rack elements. Customers can select from two configurations for the end position system, which allows for angle adjustments: one featuring an elastic end cushioning element, and another equipped with a hydraulic end cushioning element. Optional enhancements include versions with built-in air ducts and an integrated intermediate position.

Maintanance

To maintain the RCM Rotary Compact Module effectively, regularly inspect it for wear and tear, especially on moving parts like pistons and pinions, and ensure all components are securely fastened. Adequate lubrication is crucial to prevent friction and wear, using the manufacturer-recommended lubricant. Keep the module clean from dust, debris, and other contaminants. For systems with hydraulic elements, regularly check for fluid leaks to detect potential seal failures.
