Mechanically Jointed Rodless Cylinder Mechanically Jointed Rodless Cylinder Series Series Compact and low profile design A complete reduction in height of the cylinder allows mounting in a narrow space. The low profile design of the cylinder built with a high precision single or double axis guide, provides same load capacity as the earlier Series MY1.
