PNEUMATIC INDUSTRIES CO., LTD. List of Products and Services

The Pneumatic Shaft is widely used in winding and unwinding operations. By simply inserting the shaft into a core and inflating with air, the internal rubber tube expands and projects the lugs, securely gripping the core. Pneumatic Industries’ shafts are renowned for their durability and trusted reliability. Key Features ・Easy Core Loading and Removal for Increased Efficiency 　Core loading and removal are streamlined by supplying and exhausting air. Positioning is simple and precise, ensuring effortless centering. ・High Precision and High Tension Capacity 　Designed to withstand high torque and high-speed rotation, preventing raw material misalignment and core slippage. ・Prevents Core Damage for Cost Savings 　Lugs apply pressure at multiple points along the core’s inner surface, minimizing damage and extending core life. Backed by decades of expertise in unwinding and rewinding technology, PNEUMATIC INDUSTRIES CO., LTD. delivers proven reliability and long service life.

The PNEUMATIC MECHANICAL SHAFT eliminates core runout through a screw-expansion mechanism, not air pressure. Unlike air shafts that rely on rubber tubes, its lugs expand by rotating the central screw, ensuring perfect concentricity between the core and the shaft. This delivers stable and reliable performance in today’s high-speed unwinding and winding operations. Key Advantages 1. Eliminates Core Runout 　Screw-driven lugs maintain perfect concentricity between the core and the shaft, preventing wobble even at high speeds. 2. Protects Core Interior 　Multi-point lug support minimizes damage to the inner surface of paper, steel, and plastic cores. 3. Quick & Easy Operation　 　One-touch core mounting and removal with an impact wrench, with manual operation also available. 4. Lightweight, Strong, and Customizable 　Available in high-strength materials such as duralumin or steel. 　Shaft diameter, length, and shape can be tailored to customer requirements.

High strength and durability Proven in demanding fields such as aerospace and sports equipment, CFRP offers robustness, long service life, and maintenance-free operation. 3. Superior precision Reduced inertia (GD²) enables higher operating speeds with minimal deflection, preventing core slip and ensuring accurate winding. 4. Flexible options Available in pneumatic type for high workability or mechanical type for ultra-high precision with minimal runout. If you are looking for CFRP shafts, trust PNEUMATIC INDUSTRIES CO., LTD., where technology meets reliability. Contact us at: sales@pneumatic.co.jp

This leaf-type pneumatic shaft uses semi-circular plates (“leaves”) that expand to grip the core from the inside. Compared with lug-type shafts, its wide surface contact spreads the load, helps prevent deformation of thin-walled paper tubes, and transmits torque reliably. An optional Direct Winding Clamp enables one-touch clamping for faster setup. Key Features and Benefits 　1. Protection for thin-walled cores 　　• Wide surface contact distributes pressure and helps prevent ovalization or damage. 　　• Reliable torque transmission for stable winding/unwinding. 　2. Direct Winding Clamp option 　　• One-touch clamping of raw rolls shortens changeovers. 　　• Supports direct-on-shaft winding when required. 　3. Drive and sizing options 　　• Air-operated or mechanical drive. 　　• Custom sizes available to match your core ID and load. Backed by years of experience in roll handling and air-shaft technology, PNEUMATIC INDUSTRIES CO., LTD. provides solutions trusted for reliability and performance.

The Air Shaft Adapter is designed to be mounted on an air shaft to change the core diameter it can grip. A common application is to attach the adapter to a 3-inch paper tube or plastic core shaft, enabling it to handle 6-inch paper tubes or plastic cores. This eliminates the need to manufacture a dedicated 6-inch shaft, making your existing shafts more versatile. Even if you typically use 3-inch cores but occasionally require 6-inch cores, the Air Shaft Adapter provides a practical and cost-effective solution. 　1）Compatible with 6-inch cores using your 3-inch shaft 　　・Much lighter and more economical compared to manufacturing a dedicated 6-inch shaft. 　　・Easier handling than a 6-inch shaft, improving work efficiency. 　2）Effective utilization of existing shafts 　　・Use your current shafts as they are—no additional processing required. 　　・Available for a wide range of core sizes, from 4 inches up to 12 inches.

The cantilever type is a cantilever air shaft or mechanical shaft. Compared to the double-supported type, it has some disadvantages in rigidity and deflection, but it offers advantages that the double-supported type does not, such as ease of workpiece attachment and detachment, excellent workability, and ease of automation. 1. Extremely easy workpiece (core roll) extraction Since it is a cantilever type, extracting the workpiece is extremely easy. This also improves work efficiency. 2. Possible to fully automate The shaft extraction work is unnecessary as the workpiece can be pulled out directly. Automation is easy because a shaft attachment and detachment mechanism is not required. 3. Choice between air type and mechanical type Air type offers excellent cost performance. Mechanical type excels in runout accuracy. We propose the optimal solution tailored to your specifications.

The PNEUMATIC SHAFT integrates two critical functions into a single design: 1.　Core clamping by expanding lugs, securing paper, plastic, or metal cores. 2.　Blade positioning for separator discs and slitter knives, with quick and precise adjustment. This dual capability greatly reduces setup time and simplifies changeovers. Because blade positions can be adjusted without replacing the shaft, integration with NC systems is straightforward, enabling efficient automation. Unlike conventional air or mechanical shafts that only clamp cores, this shaft also provides advanced blade fixing, significantly enhancing equipment productivity and value. Key Advantages ・Quick Position Adjustment Clamp and unclamp separator discs and slitter blades with ease, reducing downtime. ・Automation-Ready Blade positions can be adjusted without shaft replacement, supporting NC-based automation. ・Dual Functionality Combines reliable core clamping and precise blade positioning in one shaft, cutting setup time and maximizing efficiency.

The Hanger-Type Pneumatic Shaft is an air shaft engineered for efficient and safe handling of wound rolls such as paper, plastic film, and metal foil. Simply insert the shaft into the core and inflate it with air — the sawtooth lugs firmly engage the core from the inside, allowing the roll to be lifted or moved securely. Because it grips the core internally, it completely prevents damage to the wound product’s outer surface and enables smooth, efficient material handling. Key Features and Benefits 　1. Quick and easy roll handling 　　• Simple insert-and-inflate operation. 　　• Enables lifting or retrieving rolls without touching the outer surface. 　2.Protects product quality 　　• Internal clamping eliminates risk of surface damage. 　　• Sawtooth lugs provide firm and reliable grip on the paper core. 　3.Efficient and versatile 　　• Ideal for roll transport, loading, and unloading operations. 　　• Compatible with hoists and roll lifters for safe, automated handling.

At Pneumatic Industry, we develop and manufacture air shafts, air chucks, and related devices that use the expansion and contraction of rubber tubes to grip and release cores (paper tubes). Just like a balloon inflates and deflates with air pressure, our mechanism drives built-in lugs that expand outward to clamp and inward to release — enabling secure, repeatable attachment and detachment of the core. We offer not only air-operated systems but also mechanical (screw-driven), cam, and high-precision cylinder types, designed to match each customer’s specific needs. These core technologies are already in use far beyond conventional winding applications: 　• as fixtures and positioning tools in machining and lathe operations, 　•for labeling or seal attachment systems, 　•as tool-mounting shafts in NC-controlled equipment. If your process requires gripping, expanding, or locking — our technology might be the key. Share your idea with us, and let’s explore what’s possible together. PNEUMATIC INDUSTRIES CO., LTD.
