Compact Linear Motion Unit
The Festo SLT-16-40-P-A is a mini slide designed for precise linear positioning in automated assemblies. Its 40 mm stroke suits short-travel pick-and-place, clamping or testing sequences. Electricians and machine builders integrate it where space is limited and repeatable motion is required. Part number 170563 identifies this specific configuration.
Sustained Operation Behaviour
The slide maintains consistent positioning accuracy over repeated cycles without the drift seen in short-burst actuation. Pneumatic cushioning absorbs end-of-stroke energy, reducing mechanical shock during continuous cycling. This stability supports reliable performance in test equipment that runs extended validation routines. The unit delivers repeatable motion profile across its full travel range.
Thermal Noise And Power Characteristics
Pneumatic drive eliminates motor heat, so the housing stays near ambient temperature during normal operation. Sound output is limited to exhaust air and cushioning contact, keeping noise low in bench-top environments. No electrical power is drawn by the slide itself, simplifying energy budgeting for the control system. Maintenance intervals align with the three-year parts coverage.

Questions about this item
Does the SLT-16-40-P-A generate noticeable heat or noise during continuous all-day operation?
The SLT-16-40-P-A is a pneumatic mini slide with a 40 mm stroke and no motor, so it produces no electrical heat or fan noise during extended use.
What pneumatic supply and fittings must I already have to operate the SLT-16-40-P-A?
You need a compressed-air source regulated for the SLT-16-40-P-A and compatible push-in fittings for its M5 or G1/8 ports.
Will the SLT-16-40-P-A mount directly to the 16 mm profile rails on my existing Festo handling system?
Yes, the SLT-16-40-P-A uses the standard 16 mm mounting pattern, so it bolts onto existing Festo 16 mm profile rails without adapters.
