Festo FENG Series Pneumatic Cylinder Guide

The Festo FENG-40-160-KF is a guided pneumatic cylinder designed to keep loads moving straight and controlled. It combines a standard pneumatic drive with an integrated guide unit to help prevent rotation, tilting, or side movement during operation. This makes it suitable for applications where positioning stability matters more than speed. With a 40 mm piston diameter and a 160 mm stroke, it fits nicely into automated systems that require repeatable linear motion under load.

Core Capabilities of the Festo 34501 FENG Series Cylinder Guide

The guide mechanism is the key feature of this cylinder. It supports external forces and moments that a standard cylinder would struggle with, especially in applications involving offset loads or tooling.

• Guided design to prevent rotation.
• Stable movement under side loads.
• Consistent alignment over repeated cycles.
• Reliable in setups that require precision and mechanical stability.

Built for Load Handling and Alignment

The FENG series is commonly used in industrial automation applications where cylinders must accurately guide parts, fixtures, or tools. The compact guide construction helps maintain rigidity without adding unnecessary complexity to the system layout. It integrates easily into existing pneumatic systems and is typically mounted in assembly lines, handling stations, or transfer units where controlled motion is essential.

Application Potential of the Product

It is chosen when standard cylinders are insufficient to meet alignment or load stability requirements.

• Pick-and-place units
• Assembly and positioning stations
• Light material handling systems
• Fixtures requiring straight guided motion
