Key Features of Our High-Speed Pneumatic Rotary Union

Our high-performance rotary union is purpose-built for high-speed pneumatic applications. Explore the key features that set our product apart:

🚀 Ultra-High Rotational Speed – Up to 10,000 RPM

We engineer every union with precision-balanced components to withstand extreme rotational speeds. This makes it ideal for demanding applications like CNC spindles, rotary tables, and robotic tooling that operate at high RPMs.

💨 Non-Contacting Seal Technology

The union uses labyrinth or air-sealing systems that eliminate friction and wear. This zero-contact sealing minimizes heat generation and dramatically extends the service life, while preventing leaks during high-speed rotation.

🔩 Compact & Lightweight Structure

Our design focuses on reducing the overall footprint and weight. It’s perfect for systems where space is limited and load sensitivity is critical, such as in robotic end-effectors and automated packaging equipment.

⚙️ Durable, Corrosion-Resistant Materials

We manufacture the housing from anodized aluminum or stainless steel, ensuring excellent corrosion resistance and strength. The internal components are made to handle compressed air, inert gases, and vacuum environments safely.

🔄 Multi-Passage Air Transfer Capability

Choose from 1, 2, or 4 independent air channels, enabling you to control multiple pneumatic circuits through a single rotary joint. Each passage is completely sealed to prevent cross-contamination between air flows.

🧩 Flexible Port & Mounting Options

We offer standard NPT, BSPT, and metric threads, plus optional flange or face mounting styles. These configurations make it easy to integrate the union into both new machinery and retrofitted systems.

🌡️ Broad Operating Temperature Range

Our unions perform reliably in environments ranging from -10°C to +80°C, and optional seals (like FKM or PTFE) allow for higher or chemically aggressive conditions. This makes them suitable for laboratory automation, medical devices, and factory robotics.

🔧 Maintenance-Free Operation

Thanks to non-contacting seals and high-precision bearings, the union requires little to no maintenance. This reduces downtime, cuts costs, and supports long-term continuous use in 24/7 automation environments.

🔌 Vacuum & Compressed Air Compatibility

Whether your system requires positive air pressure or vacuum, our rotary union ensures smooth and uninterrupted flow. The inner flow path is optimized to reduce turbulence and pressure drops, even under high flow conditions.

🌍 OEM & Custom Engineering Support

We can match or replace existing Deublin or DSTI models with improved pricing and lead time. Additionally, we offer fully customized rotary air connectors to fit your unique system specifications or international project needs.

Applications of High Speed Pneumatic Rotary Union

Instructions

1. Keep the drum and pipe wall clean, pay more attention to new equipment, and add filters when necessary to avoid abnormal wear of the rotary joint caused by foreign matter.
2. When the rotary joint is found to be leaking, stop the machine in time to check the cause of the leak, and do not work at high speed to avoid abnormal damage to some parts.
3. Do not run it idling for a long time when the medium is not flowing.
4. The structure inside the rotary joint will rust due to long-term disuse of the machine. Please note that if you clean the rust before using it, it will be stuck and dripping.
5. For those with oil-filled devices, please fill them with oil regularly to ensure the reliability of the bearing operation.
6. The rotary joint that circulates the hot medium should be heated gradually to avoid sudden temperature changes.

Maintenance instructions

1. When disassembling the rotary joint, pay attention to the impact of excessive temperature on the body. 2. When disassembling and opening the rotary joint, pay attention to the assembly sequence and keep the original state of the internal structural components to analyze the cause of the leak.
3. Check the wear condition and thickness change of the sealing surface (normal wear is 5-10mm); observe the friction track of the sealing surface to see if there are problems such as three-point intermittent contact or contact surface. This is an abnormal wear condition and should be repaired in time.
