SETTING TRAVEL LENGTH AND TIMING (LINEAR HEAD)
Your Cyclone Linear Head is factory set to run at
safe maximum speed
.
6
This set-up allows maximum speed at full stroke without the internal piston hitting /
slamming into the end blocks.
6
This is accomplished by setting the prox. Switches inwards away from the end blocks to
switch the air control valve in advance of the hard stop allowing the load to decelerate
utilizing the trapped air in the cylinder. When properly adjusted the load travels past
the switch, the air valve closes, and starts compressing the trapped air until it stops and
changes direction. The stopping point should be just before the hard stop thus allowing a
dampened stop and not a hard slam.
