For machinery-related linear movement, the application of the piston rod cylinders are many and varied. By alternating pressurisation of the piston, the energy of the compressed air is converted into force and movements.

Basic construction is simple and robust. Design variations and supplementary equipment are continually extending the range of applications.

Piston rod cylinders both 'hold' and 'move' in open-circuit and closed-loop controlled pneumatic motive power units.
