It expands. It grips. It moves. It locks. Endless possibilities — how would you use it?
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.
