DGSL-12-30-PA

The Festo DGSL-12-30-PA is a double-acting pneumatic mini linear slide. The component features a 12 mm cylinder bore and provides a standard working stroke of 30 mm. Internally, it is configured with a ball bearing cage guide to direct the linear reciprocating movement of the slide. Both end stops offer a mechanical adjustment range of 29 mm (front) and 25.5 mm (rear), allowing precise micro-adjustments of the actual stop position via the adjustment screws at the rear. For pneumatic connection, the slide is equipped with two female M5 threaded air ports, supporting compressed air operation between 1 bar and 8 bar. The suffix "P" in the model code indicates built-in flexible cushioning pads at both ends to absorb the physical impact energy at the end of the travel. The suffix "A" denotes an integrated magnet inside the slide. The housing features standard T-slots on the side, allowing direct insertion of proximity sensors, such as the SMT-8M-A series, to feed position signals back to the main control system via non-contact sensing. For assembly, the bottom and side surfaces of the slide are pre-drilled with multiple sets of threaded holes and locating pin holes, enabling modular coupling directly to other pneumatic or electric actuators of an industrial manipulator using bolts, without requiring extra adapter plates.
