What are Rotary Actuators? Pneumatic rotary actuators are a device that produces a rotary motion via a shaft to control the speed and rotation of attached equipment. How do they work? Compressed air is connected into the pneumatic connection on the rotary actuator which drives a cylinder stroke into an oscillating rotary motion. Rotary actuators have the potential to improve and simplify applications that typically use pneumatic cylinders because they are self-contained and support loads due to the internal bearing sets. Where would you use on? Rotary actuators are commonly used in industrial applications such as conveying, clamping, transferring parts, positioning, and controlling valves. Like other pneumatic components, they are durable, offer simplicity and high force for their size, and can operate in hazardous environments.
Description:
Double-acting rotary clamp actuators, operating on lubricated, filtered
compressed air. The piston rod is rotated through 90° as it extends or retracts, and may be used for clamping by using the optional arm.

Description:
Forming part of Festo's ERMS range of products
is this rotary drive unit, a super cost-effective rotary that has been created and designed for simple swivelling tasks with angles of 90°.
Description:
MQR series rotary pneumatic joints can supply air
to rotating and sliding components. The rotary joint uses metal seals to prevent sticking and a long service life means it can be used for up to 1 billion rotations.
