Unhappy Pneumatic Cylinder Length
Hey all,
During the R&D stages of our team we were wondering if we could use pnuematic cylinders ordered directly from bimba with stroke length's greater then 12". Or, were we limited intentionally by the pneumatic cylinder order form in the back of the pnuematics handbook? It seems rather strange that we'd be limited to using motors for any kind of linear movements greater than one foot. This could lead for a less robust, more unreliable robot (not too mention harder to design and build). Feedback?
Thanks,
-billy
