About AFAG

AFAG is a German manufacturer of pneumatic automation components, specializing in linear slides, rotary modules, and connecting elements for industrial motion control. The company's product range includes compact rotary modules with rotation angles up to 180° and output torque ratings up to 13.5 N·m at 8 bar maximum operating pressure, as well as pneumatic slide tables and associated stroke adjusters and shock absorbers. AFAG components are designed for integration into automated assembly, handling, and packaging systems where precise, repeatable motion is required. The product families represented in 3G Electric's inventory include the AS, ASH, ASS, and ASED series, which cover slide tables, stroke adjusters, and shock absorbers. These components are built to standard industrial specifications, with metric dimensions and compatibility with common pneumatic supply pressures up to 8 bar. AFAG's rotary modules feature pass-through and bottom mounting options (e.g., M10 pass - M12 from below), enabling flexible installation in tight spaces. The stroke adjusters and shock absorbers are engineered to control end-of-stroke deceleration and positioning accuracy in slide table applications. 3G Electric stocks over 95 SKUs of AFAG products, each accompanied by datasheets and technical specifications to support engineering evaluation and procurement. The catalog includes detailed part numbers, such as 50254301 for rotary modules and 11004992 for AS series stops, allowing direct cross-referencing with existing system designs. AFAG components are typically used in environments requiring moderate load handling and cycle rates, with build quality suited for continuous industrial operation. 3G Electric provides global logistics support for these items, enabling procurement teams to source AFAG automation components without geographic restrictions. The available inventory covers a range of stroke lengths, torque capacities, and mounting configurations, facilitating selection for specific application requirements. For maintenance managers and plant engineers, AFAG products offer standardized interfaces and predictable performance characteristics, simplifying replacement and system integration. The absence of proprietary communication protocols or specialized software requirements makes these components suitable for retrofit and new build projects alike. 3G Electric's catalog presents AFAG items with clear specifications, including manufacturer part numbers, series designations, and key physical attributes, to support informed purchasing decisions.

Common Applications

• Automated assembly lines — AFAG compact rotary modules (e.g., 50254301) for part orientation and indexing at 180° rotation.
• Packaging machinery — AFAG AS series slide tables with stroke adjusters (e.g., 11004992) for precise linear motion in carton handling.
• Material handling systems — AFAG ASS series stops (e.g., 50036780) for end-of-stroke positioning in conveyor transfer units.
• Robotic workcells — AFAG ASED series shock absorbers (e.g., 50298509) for deceleration control on pneumatic slides in pick-and-place applications.
• Machine tool automation — AFAG ASH series stroke adjusters (e.g., 50100898) for fine-tuning slide travel in drilling or tapping stations.
