Guided Actuator for Precise Motion

The Festo DFM-16-80-P-A-GF is a guided actuator designed for controlled linear movement in automation tasks. It integrates a piston rod with a built-in guide unit to resist lateral forces and maintain alignment. The unit is supplied new in a single box under part number 170838.

Suited for Guided Linear Applications

This actuator suits engineers building pick-and-place, clamping or positioning modules that require anti-rotation guidance. It is not intended for applications needing pure rotary motion, high-speed unsupported strokes or environments outside the manufacturer's stated operating range.

16 mm Bore and 80 mm Stroke

The defining specifications are a 16 mm bore diameter and an 80 mm stroke length. These two figures determine the force output and travel distance, so verify them against your machine design before ordering.
