The pneumatic cylinder, also known as air cylinder, is a mechanical device that uses air pressure to generate force in a linear motion. The pneumatic cylinders are similar to an automobile piston, which is forced by an inflow of pressurized gas in place of a gasoline explosion. After completing each stroke, the piston returns to its starting position.

Recent Developments:

In March 2022, Fabco-Air a company that provides pneumatic products and solutions announced a web store named shop.fabco-air.com. The Fabco-Air website was created to put forth all the standard products in collaboration with KYKLO Ltd., a content and e-commerce solution company for the electrical, automation, fluid, and energy industries.

  • In May 2022, Festo SE & Co. KG a multinational industrial control and automation company introduced fast motion terminal VTEM pneumatics. The Festo Motion Terminal VTEM is product that combines digitization and pneumatics. The tire manufacturing industry will benefit from this Festo Motion Terminal VTEM.

Motion control, which is extensively employed in industrial machinery, is a common application of pneumatic cylinders. Pneumatic cylinders provide linear motion and pull, push, rotate and help clamp the machine components. Pneumatic cylinders can produce high force and a wide range of velocities. They are cost-effective and very easy to install. Hence they are widely used for conveyor belt operations, opening valves, and to lift heavy objects. All these advantages of pneumatic valves are driving growth of the global pneumatic cylinders market.

Restraint:

The global pneumatic cylinder market growth is being restrained due to high production and maintenance cost of the pneumatic cylinders.  In some applications specific speeds are required and hence additional devices are attached to attain the required speed. This increases the cost of the pneumatic cylinders. Furthermore, pneumatic cylinders are less durable as they accumulate moisture. All these factors are restraining growth of the global pneumatic cylinder market.

Global Pneumatic Cylinder Market- Impact of Coronavirus (Covid-19) Pandemic

The spread of COVID-19 hampered the global economy severely. Lockdowns were imposed by governments of various countries. The trade between countries halted and this resulted in a shortage of components and materials in all sectors such as manufacturing, automobile, and others. The shortage and on time delivery of pneumatic cylinders increased as transport sector was also hampered due to the lockdown imposed during the pandemic. This hampered growth of the global pneumatic cylinder market.

Asia Pacific held a dominant position in the global pneumatic cylinder market in 2021

Statistics:

Asia Pacific held dominant position in the global pneumatic cylinder market in 2021, accounting for 32.0% share in terms of volume, followed by Europe and North America, respectively.
