Pneumatics configuration
15 January 2018
Pneumatics specialist Aventics offers all its tools free of charge online, from configuration programs to product information, CAD data and calculation tools, up to the energy savings calculator.

Engineers and buyers can use the “CylinderFinder” to simplify selection of the right cylinder for their application and requirements. The CylinderFinder determines suitable products from all available variants and versions based on the entered data. It searches 18 product series with a total of 1,700 possible cylinder variations. The online tool does not require any programs to be installed or any administrator rights.
Aventics also provides many other tools: At www.engineering-tools.com, customers will find various product configurators, calculation programs, a CAD library, and the Cross Reference Tool for immediate use, as well as the Scheme Editor circuit diagram software for download.
Configure custom solutions online
Using these programs, customers can configure their own piston rod cylinders, rod less cylinders, cylinder valve units, valve systems, and maintenance units. “Users can tailor their products to their needs, budget, and application, right down to the last detail,” explains Rainer Kemmler, Head of Online Tools at Aventics. The configurator enables exact planning, from documentation to CAD data for download, through to delivery tracking.
If customers are considering switching from another product to Aventics, the Cross Reference Tool is also useful: Users can enter data for their installed pneumatic components and receive the corresponding Aventics alternative as a result. The tool contains product information, prices, online ordering options, and contacts.
