High speed or high load cylinder applications frequently require
additional speed and flow control devices to control the stopping of
the load. SMC's RHC series features a longer cushion design which is
capable of stopping heavy or high speed loads while maintaining the
simplicity of a standard air cushion cylinder. This enhanced cushion
allows the kinetic distance, which results in the ability to absorb up
to 23.8 ft-lb of energy and operate reliably at speeds up to 118
in/sec. Even with the improved performance of the RHC, cushion
adjustment remains as simple as adjusting the cushion needle valve.
