TMI / TMIC Series Cylinder with Guide Frame
Product Features
- Integrated Design: A highly compact, new type of cylinder that intelligently combines a robust guide frame with a standard pneumatic cylinder, saving installation space and time.
-
Two Bearing Types Available:
- Bronze Bearing (M): Designed with a copper sleeve. Highly suitable for applications with lateral side loads such as stopping operations, offering excellent high torque resistance.
- Linear Bearing (L): Utilizes ball bushings. Ideal for smooth pushing and lifting actions that require high precision, high load capacity, and ultra-low friction.
- Versatile Mounting: The special profile design of the guide frame body provides multiple flat surfaces and tapped holes, allowing for highly flexible, multi-directional mounting options.

- Standard Strokes: When ordering the guide frame separately, only the standard strokes listed in the table can be ordered.
-
Non-standard Combination Rule: If a non-standard stroke complete cylinder is required, it is assembled using a non-standard stroke base cylinder paired with the guide frame of the next higher standard stroke level.
Example: To get a 160mm stroke TMIC20 cylinder, we combine an MIC 20x160 (Non-standard base cylinder) + F-TMICM 20x200 (Standard Guide Frame for 200mm stroke).
