CG1 / CDG1 Series Aluminum Lightweight Round Cylinder

Brand: SOLH by Richge Technology

Product Overview

    SOLH CG1/CDG1 aluminum lightweight round cylinder, bore φ20~100mm, successor replacement for old SMC CA1 series with fully interchangeable mounting dimensions. Features: lightweight, universal installation, flexible piping layout, low noise & high speed performance. Widely used in automation conveyor lines, electronic equipment, packaging machinery, light industry equipment for light & medium load, long stroke and high-frequency reciprocating applications.

Core Structure & Design Features

   1. Standard: New generation SMC lightweight round cylinder, direct replacement for CA1 series.

   2. Material: Extruded aluminum barrel & end caps, hard chrome plated piston rod. 30% lighter than conventional standard cylinders, high strength and good heat dissipation.

   3. Structure: Thread locked end caps, straight round shape, easy disassembly & maintenance. 4 directional air ports (90° interval), highly flexible piping arrangement.

   4. Operation Variants

     -- CG1B Double Acting: Air supply on both ends, most common standard model

     -- CG1S / CG1T Single Acting: S=Spring return; T=Spring extend, automatic reset after air cut-off

     -- CG1W Double Rod: Rod extended on both sides, synchronous movement, enhanced anti-torsion capacity

     -- CG1K Non-Rotating Rod: Hexagonal piston rod for precise positioning and anti-twist

   4. Cushion: Standard rubber cushion; air cushion (suffix A) optional to reduce impact and noise under high speed.

   5. Sealing: Low-friction composite seal with oil reservoir groove, low startup pressure, oil-free operation, service life ≥8 million cycles.

   6. Position Detection: CDG1 equipped with built-in magnetic ring, compatible with M9B/A93/Z73 auto switches for piston position feedback; CG1 without magnet, cannot install magnetic switches.

     -- CDG1R: Slim direct mount version for limited axial space

     -- CDG1KR: Direct mount + non-rotating rod double acting

3-Step Fast Selection Guide

   1. Bore selection: Calculate required thrust & horizontal load, reserve ≥50% safety margin; prioritize CG1 for light-medium load and long-stroke applications.

   2.  Stroke confirmation: Add extra 10~20mm travel margin; Max stroke: double acting ≤1000mm, single acting ≤300mm.

   3.  Configuration matching

     -- Operation: Double acting → B; single acting spring return → S; anti-twist requirement → K

     -- Cushion: Add suffix A air cushion when operating speed＞500mm/s

     -- Position feedback: Choose CDG1 magnet equipped model, match M9B/A93 auto switches
