Enhanced locking efficiency

Greater locking efficiency as well as stable locking and unlocking operation has been achieved by arranging a large number of steel ball bearings in circular rows. The floating taper ring provides alignment and stable locking force with respect to piston rod eccentricity. (Unlocking pressure of 0.25MPa ...... 0.05MPa lower than conventional SMC products)
Greater reliability and stable holding force

Outstanding durability and stable holding force are maintained through the use of a substantially lengthened brake shoe which provides superior wear resistance. (Double that of a conventional SMC product)
A metal rod scraper is standard

3.6-2
Resistance against welding process spatter and other external contaminants is achieved by providing a metal rod scraper as standard.

Within the allowable kinetic energy range, speeds between 50 to 500mm/s can be achieved.
In the event that the air supply is cut off or unavailable, unlocking can be performed with a commercially available tool. The fail safe mechanism locks again when the manual override is released.
Simple manual override
Enclosed construction minimizes influences of poor air quality

Separation of the lock mechanism and the unlocking piston chamber produces a structure which is resistant to moisture and drainage in compressed air.
Compact lock unit saves space

The lock unit is extremely compact, without a large overhang.
Can be locked in both directions

Holding force is equal on either extend or retract.

Construction Principle
Brake shoe holder Brake shoe Release piston Air pressure exhaust Air pressure supply Steel balls Ball retainer Taper ring Brake spring
A
Spring Locking (Exhaust Locking) The spring force which acts upon the taper ring is magnified by a wedge effect, and is conveyed to all of the numerous steel balls which are arranged in two circles. These act on the brake shoe holder and brake, which locks the piston rod by tightening against it with a large force. Unlocking is accomplished when air pressure is supplied to the unlocking port. The release piston and taper ring oppose the spring force, moving to the right side, and the ball retainer strikes the cover section A. The braking force is released as the steel balls are removed from the taper ring by the ball retainer.

Model Selection
Precautions on Model Selection Step 1 Find the maximum load speed: V
Load movement time: t (S)
1. In order that the originally selected maximum speed is not exceeded, be certain to use a speed controller to adjust the total movement distance of the load so that movement takes place in no less than the applicable movement time. The movement time is the time that is necessary for the load to travel the total movement distance from the start without any intermediate stops. 2. In cases where the cylinder stroke and the movement distance of the load are different (double speed mechanism, etc.), use the movement distance of the load for selection purposes.
Caution
Find the maximum load speed: V(mm/s) from the load movement time: t(s) and the movement distance: st(mm).

Maximum speed: V(mm/s)
Step 2
Find the cylinder bore size.
Movement distance of load
Select a graph based upon the load condition and operating pressure, and then find the point of intersection for the maximum speed found in Step 1 and the load weight. Select the bore size on the line above the point of intersection.
Selection Example
Load weight: m = 320kg Movement distance: st = 400mm Movement time: t = 2s Load condition: Vertical downward = Load in direction of rod extension Operating pressure: P = 0.4MPa
Step 1: From graph 1 find the maximum movement speed of the load Maximum speed V: approx. 280mm/s Step 2: Select Graph 6 based upon the load condition and operating pressure, and then from the intersection of the maximum speed V = 280mm/s found in Step 1, and the load weight m = 320kg 140 select a CNS140 or larger bore size.

Specific Product Precautions 1

Be sure to read before handling.
Design of Equipment & Machinery
Selection
1. Construct so that the human body will not come into direct contact with driven objects or the moving parts of locking cylinders.
Devise a safe structure by attaching protective covers that prevent direct contact with the human body, or in cases where there is a danger of contact, provide sensors or other devices to perform an emergency stop, etc. before contact occurs.
Warning
3. In order to further improve stopping CL accuracy, the time from the stop signal to the operation of the lock should be shortened as MLG much as possible.
To accomplish this, use a device such as a highly responsive electric control circuit or solenoid valve driven by direct current, and place the solenoid valve as close as possible to the cylinder.
Warning
CNA
2. Use a balance circuit, taking cylinder lurching into consideration.

In cases such as an intermediate stop, where a lock is operated at a desired position within the stroke and air pressure is applied from only one side of the cylinder, the piston will lurch at high speed when the lock is released. In such situations, there is a danger of causing human injury by having hands or feet, etc. caught, and also a danger of causing damage to the equipment. In order to prevent this lurching, a balance circuit such as the recommended air pressure circuits (p. 3.6-22) should be used.
CNG CNS CLS CB CV/MVG CXW CXS MX
4. Note that stopping accuracy will be influenced MNB by changes in piston speed.
When piston speed changes during the course of the cylinder stroke due to variations in the load or disturbances, etc., the dispersion of stopping positions will increase. Therefore, consideration should be given to establishing a standard speed for the piston just before it reaches the stopping position. Moreover, the dispersion of stopping positions will increase during the cushioned portion of the stroke and during the accelerating portion of the stroke after the start of operation, due to the large changes in piston speed.
Selection
Warning
1. When in a locked condition, do not apply a load accompanied by an impact shock, strong vibration or turning force, etc.
Use caution, because an external action such as an impacting load, strong vibration or turning force, may damage the locking mechanism or reduce its life.
Mounting
Warning
If connected when in the locked condition, a load greater than the turning force or holding force may operate on the piston rod and cause damage to the lock mechanism. The CNS series is equipped with an emergency unlocking mechanism, however, when connecting the rod end to the load this should be done with the lock released by simply connecting an air line to the unlocking port and supplying air pressure of 0.25MPa {2.5kgf/cm2} or more.
1. Be certain to connect the rod end to the load CXT with the lock released.
2. Consider stopping accuracy and the amount of overrun when an intermediate stop is performed.
Due to the nature of a mechanical lock, there is a momentary lag with respect to the stop signal, and a time delay occurs before stopping. The cylinder stroke resulting from this delay is the overrun amount. The difference between the maximum and minimum overrun amounts is the stopping accuracy. Place a limit switch before the desired stopping position, at a distance equal to the overrun amount. The limit switch must have a detection length (dog length) of the overrun amount + . SMC's auto switches have operating ranges from 8 to 14mm (depending on the switch model). When the overrun amount exceeds this range, self-holding of the contact should be performed at the switch load side. Refer to page 3.6-5 regarding stopping accuracy.

2. Do not apply an offset load to the piston rod.

Particular care should be taken to match the load's centre of gravity with the centre of the cylinder shaft. When there is a large discrepancy, the piston rod may be subjected to uneven wear or damage due to the inertial moment during locking stops.
X Load centre of gravity and cylinder shaft centre are not matched.
Load centre of gravity and cylinder shaft centre are matched.

Stop signal Amount of overrun Note) Can be used if all of the generated moment is absorbed by an effective guide.

Caution
1. Precautions when using the base unit and when changing bracket positions, etc.
The lock unit and cylinder rod cover are assembled as shown in the drawing below. For this reason, it cannot be installed as in the case of common air cylinders, by using the basic type and screwing the cylinder tie-rods directly into machinery. Furthermore, when brackets are replaced, the unit holding tie-rods may become loose and they should be retightened.
Unit holding tie-rod Lock unit Cylinder tie-rod Rod cover
Warning
2. Use a solenoid valve for unlocking which has a large effective sectional area, as a rule 50% or more of the effective sectional area of the cylinder drive solenoid valve.
The larger the effective sectional area is, the shorter the locking time will be (the overrun amount will be shorter), and stopping accuracy will be improved.
3. Place the solenoid valve for unlocking close to the cylinder, and no farther than the cylinder drive solenoid valve.
The less distance there is from the cylinder (the shorter the piping), the shorter the overrun amount will be, and stopping accuracy will be improved.
4. Allow at least 0.5 seconds from a locked stop (intermediate stop of the cylinder) until release of the lock.

When the locked stop time is too short, the piston rod (and load) may lurch at a speed greater than the control speed of the speed controller.

5. When restarting, control the switching signal for the unlocking solenoid valve so that it acts before or at the same time as the cylinder drive solenoid valve.
If the signal is delayed, the piston rod (and load) may lurch at a speed greater than the control speed of the speed controller.

Caution
1. Adjust the cylinder's air balance.
Balance the load by adjusting the air pressure in the front and rear sides of the cylinder with the load connected to the cylinder and the lock released. Lurching of the cylinder when unlocked can be prevented by carefully adjusting this air balance.

2. Adjust the mounting positions of the detectors on auto switches, etc.

When intermediate stops are to be performed, adjust the mounting positions of detectors on auto switches, etc., taking into consideration the overrun amount with respect to the desired stopping positions.

Air Pressure Circuits
Warning
1. Be certain to use an air pressure circuit which will apply balancing pressure to both sides of the piston when in a locked stop.
In order to prevent cylinder lurching after a locked stop, when restarting or when manually unlocking, a circuit should be used which will apply balancing pressure to both sides of the piston, thereby canceling the force generated by the load in the direction of piston movement.

1. The unlocking cam is an emergency unlocking mechanism only. During an emergency when the air supply is stopped or cut off, this is used to alleviate a problem by forcibly pushing back the release piston and brake spring to release the lock. 2. When installing the cylinder into equipment or performing adjustments, etc., be sure to apply air pressure of 0.25MPa or more to the unlocking port, and do not perform work using the unlocking cam. 3. When releasing the lock with the unlocking cam, it must be noted that the sliding resistance of the cylinder will be high, unlike normal unlocking with air pressure.

4. Do not turn the unlocking cam (the arrow or mark on the unlocking cam head) past the position marked FREE. If it is turned too far, there is a danger of damaging the unlocking cam. 5. For safety reasons, the unlocking cam is constructed so that it cannot be fixed in the unlocked condition.
Locked condition Manually unlocked condition
Unlocking cam Release piston
Warning
1. Never operate the unlocking cam until safety has been confirmed. (Do not turn to the FREE side.)
When unlocking is performed with air pressure applied to only one side of the cylinder, the moving parts of the cylinder will lurch at high speed causing a serious hazard. When unlocking is performed, be sure to confirm that personnel are not within the load movement range and that no other problems will occur if the load moves.
2. Before operating the unlocking cam, exhaust any residual pressure which is in the system.
[Principle] If the unlocking cam is turned clockwise with an adjustable angle wrench or socket wrench, etc., the release piston is pushed back and the lock is released. Since the lever will return to its original position and become locked again when it is released, it should be held in this position for as long as unlocking is required.
