FAQs: Pneumatic Components for Automation Applications

The time for standard fittings and manifold blocks is 8–14 business days and it includes swiss turning or milling, drilling and finishing. Complex multiport manifolds with integrated features require about 3–4 weeks. For pneumatic systems, we can also perform pneumatic circuit testing, this is done in about 6–10 days to allow for quick system validation.

We provide comprehensive finishing solutions tailored to aerospace requirements:
Anodizing (Type II and Type III)
Passivation for corrosion resistance
Precision polishing for aerodynamic surfaces
Custom protective coatings and thermal barriers

Yes, we provide rapid prototyping to verify fit and test assembly, with same-day CAD-to-part capability available for critical projects. For custom automation cells and research platforms, we perform low-volume production of 20 to 500 brackets. For standardized robot models, we perform high-volume production of thousands to tens of thousands of brackets annually, incorporating complete dimensional inspection, flatness verification, and material certifications.

The flow control was ±3 of design, orifice precision control was within ±0.0005 inches, port position accuracy was ±0.005 inches, for manifold alignment, threaded dimension tolerances were ±0.0003 inches, which met the ISO 228 and ANSI B1.20.1 standards for closed gaps, and leak-free connections. The sealing surface was flat to within 0.002 inches which is needed for O-ring compression, concentricity was to within 0.001 inches which is needed for proper fitting to assemble, and the overall thickness needed was ±0.010 inches.

The Swiss CNC turned pieces created fittings, valve bodies, and connectors having intricate external threads, internal passages and were single operations. Multi-axis CNC milling created and assembled manifold blocks having intersecting air passages and multiple ports. The Cross drill created 90 degree passages for flow, and was able to position them at the required angles within ±0.005 inches. The Precision drill created orifices with a tight control of diameter ±0.0005 inches to regulate flow and complete orifices. Thread cutting produced NPT, BSPT, and metric threads which correspond to ISO 228 templates. The surface machining to be sealed is flat to 0.002 inches. The Electropolishing process was a smooth the internal passages to drop.

Aluminum 6061-T6 provides for lightweight construction, excellent machinability for complex manifold passages, adequate strength for pressures to 16 bar, and good thermal conductivity. Natural corrosion resistance becomes enhanced with anodizing. Brass C36000 and C37700 provides superior machinability to enable cost effective high volume production and excellent corrosion resistance against compressed air moisture. Self-lubricating properties and reliability for pneumatic fittings and valves are proven. Stainless steel 303 and 316 will provide maximum strength for high pressure applications to 40 bar and will provide superior corrosion resistance in washdown and marine environments along with food grade compliance. Anodized aluminum offers wear resistance at sealing surfaces with enhanced corrosion protection and allows for color coding of systems for easy identification.

Pneumatic components are sophisticated designed parts for controlling and distributing compressed air within robotic grippers, actuators, and automated systems. These components consist of manifold blocks that distribute air to 4 to 32 outputs, air fitting interfaces, push-to-connect fitting for tool-less tubing attachment, quick disconnect couplings for rapid equipment changes, flow control valves for restricting air to change speed, and pressure regulators. Other parts are muffler bodies to lower exhaust noiseto 65 dBA, filter housings to remove particulates to 5 microns, and specialty components such as vacuum generators, air preparation units, and pneumatic logic elements.
