As a special kind of pneumatic cylinder, energizing pneumatic cylinder can increase the output force without changing diameter by a series of two or more piston on a piston rod. Since the friction characteristics of pneumatic cylinders is one of the most important factors affecting the nonlinearity, a new experimental apparatus is designed to have an in-depth study, base on exhaust throttle. The friction of energizing pneumatic cylinder was tested under different working pressure and velocity to ascertain the parameters of stribeck model. The results show that friction model of the energizing pneumatic cylinder can be the superposition of the models of each piston.

It has been proven experimentally that boundary slippage represents a viable effect on the hydrodynamic performance of lubricated sliding contacts. Along with several friction reduction mechanisms that have been explored in the literature, the slippage parameters remain an important feature. With the main objective of evaluating the effects of the slippage, a modified Reynolds equation is employed. The result shows that deterministic boundary slippage of the lubricated-MEMS with uniform film thickness has a very beneficial effect on decreasing friction force as well as coefficient of friction.

The movement of a piston rod in a pneumatic cylinder is directly affected by the air humidity in the atmosphere, especially in the case of piston rods without any means of protection or grease on their surfaces. In a pneumatic cylinder system, the friction between the piston rod and the rod seal is sliding friction, and it has a significant value that varies with the variation in the moisture on the piston rod’s surface. In this paper, an investigation of the friction characteristics of piston rods and rod seals in a pneumatic cylinder was carried out with different humidity and velocity values to understand the effect of lubricants on the moving parts of pneumatic systems in humid environments, where the friction characteristics of the displacements corresponding to the static and dynamic friction forces were displayed on a measuring device. The research results showed that the static friction forces tended to decrease by [Formula: see text] and that the dynamic friction forces tended to decrease by [Formula: see text] when the relative humidity increased from 51% to 99% at different velocities between 5 and 100 mm/s.
