Koganei ORV16X100-K2 Slit Type Rodless Cylinder
The Koganei ORV16X100-K2 is a slit-type rodless pneumatic cylinder with a 16mm bore and 100mm stroke, part of Koganei’s ORV series. This series uses an oval piston design combined with two linear guides, giving a lower center of gravity and smoother, more rigid operation than conventional slit-type rodless cylinders, while reducing dead stroke space by roughly 35% compared to earlier Koganei designs.
Technical Specifications
- Bore size: 16 mm

About the “-K2” Designation
“K2” appears consistently across ORV order codes alongside shock absorber and sensor options on other cylinders in this series (e.g. ORV16X550-K2-ZE135A2, ORV16X1075-K2). This strongly suggests it denotes a shock absorber option fitted to the cylinder — but we could not confirm the exact specification (impact speed rating, absorber type) from public documentation with full certainty. We’d recommend confirming against the original ORV datasheet or with Koganei technical support before publishing this detail as a firm spec on the listing.
Applications
Slit-type rodless cylinders like the ORV series are used where a compact, low-cost, rigid linear actuator is needed without the full length penalty of a rod cylinder — pick-and-place transfer, conveyor transfer stations, and general automation stages requiring smooth, guided linear motion.
