The KM/8020/M/10 features ISO 6432 compliance and a 20 mm bore, enabling plug-and-play integration with standard mounting plates and reducing setup time on compact automation cells. This directly improves line throughput and minimizes downtime in packaging and pick-and-place applications. The magnetic piston is standard, allowing position sensing without additional sensors and wiring, which lowers installation complexity and maintenance costs. The stainless steel barrel (AISI 304) and piston rod (AISI 303) deliver high corrosion resistance and hygienic performance, supporting food processing and pharmaceutical environments while reducing replacement cycles. Buffer cushioning softens starts and stops, decreasing vibration transmission and extending component life in high-cycle conveyors. The unit’s G1/8 port size, 1–10 bar operating pressure, and -10 to 80 °C range align with common plant air systems, ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure and minimizing integration risk. Nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut are included, simplifying early-stage alignment and secure installation in crowded machine frames. The 188 N theoretical force provides dependable actuation for moderate-load tasks, and the KM/8000/M range compatibility ensures scalable expansion across lines while preserving performance.

FAQs

KM/8020/M/10 is designed for ISO 6432 frames with a 20 mm bore and G1/8 port. Installation is simplified by the included nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut, which support precise alignment and secure mounting. For best results, align the cylinder with the mating accessory plates, tighten mounting hardware to spec, and verify stroke ends before commissioning.
The cylinder operates from -10 to 80 °C and supports compressed air pressures from 1 to 10 bar (14 to 145 psi). This range covers typical factory environments and most standard plant air systems, enabling reliable actuation across a variety of automation tasks without specialized conditioning.
Yes. The KM/8020/M/10 uses a stainless steel barrel (AISI 304) and piston rod (AISI 303), plus a magnetic piston and buffer cushioning, all of which support hygienic cleaning and corrosion resistance. These features make it well-suited for food processing, beverage, and pharmaceutical environments where sanitation and durability are critical.
This model provides a theoretical force of 188 N with a 10 mm stroke and a 20 mm bore. The compact stroke is ideal for short-throw actuations; for higher loads or longer strokes, consider the KM/8000/M family variants, which maintain consistent performance while expanding capacity.
KM/8020/M/10 is designed to be compatible with the KM/8000/M range, supporting scalable automation across lines. It uses standard ISO 6432 mounting, G1/8 porting, and a double-acting configuration with buffer cushioning, ensuring consistent performance and straightforward integration with existing Norgren components and controls.
