Pneumatic Piston Guides

The JUD Pneumatic Piston Guides are designed for use in wire, press and dryer section of papermachines. All types of Piston Guides have a compact, enclosed design and are equipped with Viton sealings to withstand temperatures of up to 150 °C. All Guides can be supplied with integrated support slides to allow accurate manual guide positioning.
The Piston Guides are controlled either via the direct rotary JUD Control Valve SV 90 or the indirect cam-type Control Valve SV 95 or SV 95/5.

SR 494, SR 694, SR 696, SR 994 and SR 996
The modular design generation of guides for accurate guiding of wires and felts. Designed to guide the fast running fabrics.
The carriage of the Piston Guide moves linear on roller bearings or on sliding columns and carries the guide roll. All moving parts are well protected and enclosed. The pneumatic cylinder is mounted external to allow easy access.
All of these guides are supplied with mechanical feedback unit for highly accurate tracking results even in the most demanding applications.
In the case of lost air supply the guide maintain in the actual position via stop-valves.

System advantages:
  • robust, enclosed design
  • mechanical feedback unit for excellent guiding results
  • low internal friction
  • flexible mounting position
  • optional integrated support slide
  • maintenance friendly (external cylinder)
Design:
  • with bearing yokes or mounting plates for your pillow block
  • with integrated support slide
 
Materials:
  • standard steel
  • 316L stainless steel
SR 401, SR 603, SR 605
