Brand replacement research
The SMC RB series pages below use official catalog energy, stroke, frequency, thrust and thread data. The EKD candidate is a performance shortlist, not a drop-in mounting claim.
1 referenced models in this series. Model-number relationships are recommendations only; final selection is based on actual operating conditions.
1 models
Recommended by model and published ratings. Final selection must follow actual operating conditions, mounting and application review.
Published energy per cycle, hourly duty, stroke, velocity and force are checked first. Mounting thread, total length, stop geometry and environmental requirements are then treated as separate confirmation items.
Send the full model code, nameplate or drawing, moving mass, impact velocity, drive force, cycles per hour, installation position and temperature. A model-family similarity alone is not a replacement approval.
A model-number recommendation is a shortlist. EKD confirms the actual operating and installation conditions before ordering.
