Stainless steel barrel and corrosion-resistant internals deliver robust performance in washdown and corrosive environments. This design translates into longer service life and lower maintenance costs on high-cycle lines used in food processing, beverage packaging, and other hygienic automation tasks. The KM/8020/M/140 resists chemical cleaners and sanitizers while maintaining precise actuation, reducing unplanned downtime on critical production runs. Its compatibility with ISO 6432 mounting ensures straightforward integration with a wide range of enclosures and end plates. The 20 mm bore and 140 mm stroke support compact but powerful linear motion, reducing footprint while delivering the necessary thrust. Magnetic piston is standard, enabling reliable position sensing without extra sensors or wiring. This design simplifies installation on conveyors and robotic pick-and-place cells where fast, repeatable feedback improves cycle accuracy. Non-contact magnetic feedback also minimizes wear on sensors and wiring. ISO 6432 compliance ensures straightforward replacement and cross-vendor interchangeability, reducing engineering effort during line upgrades. The cylinder uses a compact 20 mm bore with a 140 mm stroke to fit tight spaces while delivering controlled motion. A G1/8 port size aligns with common manifolds and quick-connect fittings, enabling fast commissioning and minimal system disruption. Buffer cushioning reduces end-of-stroke shock, protecting both cylinder components and the attached machinery from vibration-induced wear. The standard nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut simplify installation in existing frames and help maintain alignment under vibration in packaging, assembly, and material handling lines. These features also support repeatable performance when operators reconfigure lines or swap tooling. Operating range supports broad factory use: -10 to 80 C and 1 to 10 bar air pressure. The 188 N theoretical force ensures adequate actuation for medium-load tasks without excessive energy draw, making it suitable for conveyors, tooling presses, and pick-and-place cells in food and general automation. The design also emphasizes easy integration and minimal lifecycle cost for high-demand environments.
