SMC MIW12-12D Escapement Slider Guide Cylinder

The SMC MIW12-12D Escapement Slider Guide Cylinder is a compact, pneumatic two‑finger escapement designed to index and feed individual parts on automated lines. With a 12 mm bore and a 12 mm stroke, it provides precise, repeatable motion and weighs 240 g, making it ideal for tight spaces in conveyors, vibratory feeders, magazines, and hoppers. As part of the MIW/MIS escapement family, the MIW12-12D uses dual fingers to grip and sequentially release parts, enabling reliable separation and controlled presentation to downstream equipment on assembly and production lines. The two‑finger arrangement helps ensure only one item is advanced at a time, reducing misfeeds and jams at high speeds, and the MIW series offers additional bore sizes and stroke options to suit different part dimensions and feeding requirements.
