pneumatic cylinder, Example of import scaling(DWG workaround), and stop limits (by Ryan)
Hi all,
Here is a 36" stroke pneumatic cylinder. Special thanks to ruevs and Andrew for sharing solutions that enabled this model. This cylinder is available from McMaster Carr. The top level assembly is "36"pneumatic_cylinder.slvs". I guessed at the internals of the piston, and there are no threads or nuts. If anybody finds anything wrong, or has a good way of modeling threads please share.

Cheers

Beautiful!


One thing I noticed - you called your files

36"pneumatic_cylinder_Piston.slvs
36"pneumatic_cylinder.slvs

presumably working on Linux. On Windows when one unzips them the " is replaced by _ and the linked file can not be opened. I fixed it by editing 36_pneumatic_cylinder.slvs in a text editor, but this is a corner case we should consider.

Updated the model removing the double quotes. Thanks for the input ruevs.
