ISO 6432 compatibility and a 25 mm bore create a compact actuator footprint that integrates quickly into standard frame sizes and mounting brackets found on most packaging and assembly lines. The 20 mm stroke provides precise, repeatable displacement for short-throw positioning without bespoke tooling, while the G1/8 port and common pneumatic fittings simplify integration into existing circuits. Engineers appreciate the predictable footprint and scalable options, allowing rapid line expansions, easier spare-part logistics, and consistent performance across mixed automation cells in food, beverage, and general manufacturing environments. Constructed with X5CrNi18-10 stainless steel for the barrel and X10CrNiS18-9 piston rod, the cylinder delivers exceptional corrosion and acid resistance—essential for washdown and CIP-enabled processes. This durable metallurgy, combined with buffer cushioning, reduces wear and maintenance costs, providing reliable service life even under frequent cycling in hygienic environments. Magnetic piston technology enables reliable position sensing compatible with standard PLCs and sensors. It delivers clean, repeatable feedback for control loops in pick-and-place and labeling lines, while minimizing sensor misreads in dusty or wet factory floors. The result is tighter process control and reduced commissioning time during system integration. Double-acting operation with buffer cushioning smooths fast cycles and reduces impact forces on seals and rods. This translates to longer seal life, quieter operation, and fewer unplanned replacements. In conveyor transfer zones and high-speed automation, it supports higher throughput with lower maintenance margins. Standard nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut provide secure mounting and straightforward alignment in tight spaces. ISO 6432 compatibility allows easy retrofits into existing cylinder slots, and the compact form factor supports vertical or horizontal mounting, simplified maintenance, and quick field adjustments during line changes or commissioning. Operating range and materials support dependable performance: -10 to 80 °C, 1 to 10 bar, 294 N theoretical force, stainless steel construction, and a 25 mm bore. These attributes make KM/8025/M/20 suitable for food processing, packaging, and light automation tasks where reliable actuation, hygiene, and predictable response are critical for throughput and quality targets.
