Rotary pneumatic actuators have several common applications in manufacturing:

Assembly Lines

Assembly Lines: They are widely used to rotate parts or tools. For example, in automotive manufacturing, they can rotate car bodies during the painting process to ensure even coating. In electronics manufacturing, they are used to position components accurately for assembly, enabling precise placement of parts on printed circuit boards.

Material Handling

Material Handling: Rotary pneumatic actuators are employed in conveyor systems to divert or rotate materials. They can rotate bins or chutes to direct materials into different processing lines. In warehouses, they are used to rotate pallet - handling equipment, facilitating the efficient storage and retrieval of goods.

Valve Control

Valve Control: In manufacturing processes that involve fluid control, such as in chemical plants or food and beverage production, rotary pneumatic actuators are used to operate valves. They can precisely control the opening and closing of valves, regulating the flow of liquids or gases. This ensures accurate dosing and process stability.

Packaging Machinery

Packaging Machinery: In packaging lines, these actuators are used to rotate containers for filling, capping, and labeling. They can also rotate packaging materials, such as cardboard or plastic films, to ensure proper alignment and feeding into the packaging machines. This helps improve the efficiency and quality of the packaging process.
