Another Great Innovation from SMC
Multiposition Cylinder
Series MPC
Need an actuator that offers an infinite number of adjustable
stroke positions for under $500? Previously, an electric actuator
was your only option. Now SMC offers a pneumatic and lower cost
alternative in our new MPC Series. The MPC (Multi Position
Cylinder) uses a 4~20mA or 0~10VDC input signal to automatically
adjust the actuator stroke. Once the MPC reaches the desired
position, it is pneumatically locked until the input signal is
changed.
How does the MPC do this? The MPC is a Cylinder + Solenoid Valve
+ Linear Sensor + Controller all in one unit. You need only to
supply air and the appropriate input signal. This easy adjustment
makes the MPC perfect for on the fly changes to your process.
