AirTAC Air Preparation Units

AirTAC manufactures pneumatic components including air preparation units, valves, cylinders, actuators, fittings, and linear motion products used in automated equipment and machine-building applications. AOP distributes AirTAC products and works with customers to select components for motion control, fluid handling, packaging equipment, and custom pneumatic systems.

Engineers evaluating pneumatic systems often need to balance operating pressure, response time, installation space, and long-term component availability. AOP supports these projects with application guidance, component sourcing, and ISO 9001:2015-certified assembly services that can include documented procedures, lot traceability, and support for customer Design History File (DHF) and Device Master Record (DMR) requirements.

  • Fittings, Tubing, and Accessories: They provide a comprehensive selection of fittings, tubing, and accessories, such as shock absorbers, one-touch fittings, stainless steel one-touch fittings, PU and PA tubing, flame-resistant tubing, pneumatic indicators, flow controls, and exhaust silencers, all of which ensure seamless integration and functionality of pneumatic systems.

AirTAC Components for Packaging Equipment:

Packaging equipment relies on pneumatic cylinders, directional control valves, air preparation units, and fittings to automate product movement, sealing, sorting, and material handling functions. Selecting these components requires balancing cycle speed, available installation space, operating requirements, and long-term component availability. AirTAC offers a broad range of pneumatic products for packaging applications, while AOP supports machine builders and OEMs with component sourcing, application guidance, and custom pneumatic assemblies designed around specific equipment requirements.

AOP Application of AirTAC Products:

  • Five series of linear guides, including the LRM miniature series, the LRW miniature wide series, the LSH standard series, the LSD low profile series, and the LGC cross roller series. AirTAC’s high-quality, competitively priced linear guides are used in many applications where smooth, accurate linear motion is required.
  • AFC/BFC Series: These air preparation units feature a delicate and compact structure for convenient installation, a self-locking mechanism to prevent abnormal pressure adjustments, low-pressure loss, high water separation efficiency, and an observable oil drip rate through a transparent check dome.
  • HFC Series Gripper: Designed with a cuneiform block for larger gripping force, a front piston bumper to reduce noise, and a positioning hole at the bottom for improved precision and consistency in repeated dismounting and positioning, making it ideal for robotized equipment applications.
  • 6D/6DW series integrated solenoid, air piloted valves with communication modules, are available in 5/2 or 5/3 configurations, with 25 pin sub-D electrical connection or COM modules including Profinet, Ethernet, EtherCAT, or IO-Link. These compact valve terminals are easy to install since the push-in tube fittings are already installed.
