Global Pneumatic Cylinder Market Growth Is Expected To Be Driven Increasing Adoption In Industrial Realm Applications

Pneumatic cylinder or air cylinder is a device designed for converting pressure energy into useful motion.  It uses packed air inside the barrel of the cylinder to move the load along a lined way. In these type of cylinders, pneumatic pressure forces piston to travel in the chosen path same as hydraulic cylinders. Piston rod in the cylinder transfers the force that is developed to move the object. Industries prefer pneumatics because they are cleaner, calmer, and do not require large space for fluid storage.

The pneumatic cylinder is similar to automobile piston, which uses the pressure created by inflow of pressurized gas whereas automotive piston uses the force created by a gasoline explosion. In the pneumatic cylinder, the piston returns to its original position after completing each stroke.

Single acting cylinders use the force of air pressure to move the rod in a single direction. In these type of cylinders, when the air pressure is released the spring returns the piston to its original position. In double acting cylinders, the air pressure is used in both retraction and extension strokes. Double acting cylinders have two ports to control each stroke.

Integration of IoT with pneumatic cylinders is expected to promote adoption of these type of cylinders in various end-use industries. Moreover, demand for pneumatic cylinders is increasing across the globe owing to increasing adoption of these type of cylinders in the building & construction industry.

The rising popularity of electric devices in developed and developing countries is estimated to affect the adoption of pneumatic cylinders in various end-use industries.

There are two types of pneumatic cylinders in the market currently such as single-acting cylinders and double-acting cylinders. The double-acting cylinders are widely used as compared to single-acting cylinders. Double-acting cylinders are stronger, faster, and require less energy to finish the task. These type of cylinders are used in motorcycle, automobile, and aeroplane landing gear suspensions.

Pneumatic cylinders are mostly used for applications such as industrial realm, automotive and building. The adoption is high for industrial realm applications. Pneumatic cylinders are used in industrial realm applications as actuators for lift gates, valves, machines, and hoists.

The demand for pneumatic cylinders is increasing in the Asia Pacific owing to growing building and construction, and manufacturing industries. Demand for pneumatic cylinders is inclining in the countries namely Japan, China, Indonesia, India, Australia, etc., owing to the increasing number of construction activities.

Adoption of pneumatic cylinders can increase at a significant rate in North America due to increasing demand for earth moving equipment. Rising adoption of robots in manufacturing sector is expected to boost the adoption of pneumatic cylinders in North America.

Some of the key players profiled in the global pneumatic cylinder market report include SMC Corporation, Festo, IMI, Parker, Aventics, Aro (Ingersoll Rand), Univer, Camozzi, Metal Work, Airtac, Ashun Fluid Power Co, Bimba Manufacturing, EMC, Bansbach, and Aignep.
