What Is an Adjustable-Stroke Cylinder?
An adjustable-stroke cylinder lets you change the end-of-stroke position with a mechanical stop screw or nut. Travel can be fine-tuned for different product sizes without rebuilding the machine.
On packaging and assembly lines with frequent changeovers it cuts set-up time; adjustment is usually on the retract or extend end.
