摘要

Arodless cyNnder that could be a breakthrough product for high-temperature applications is being tested in Europe, according to one of its designers. Mechanical applications engineer Stephan Barry, of Hoerbiger-Origa Corp, Glendale Heights, Ill., said that late last year, the company's OSP-series rodless pneumatic cylinder, called Thermocylinder, was tested in oven-door opening applications to 500 °, the limit of the thermal test equipment used in the trials.
