Stainless steel housing delivers high corrosion and acid resistance, extending service life in food-processing environments and washdowns. This translates to reduced maintenance cycles and lower total cost of ownership, especially in lines that require frequent cleaning and sanitization. The cylinder’s materials and finish support hygiene-focused installations without compromising performance. The design also delivers consistent actuation across harsh chemical environments, helping maintain line throughput. Magnetic piston's presence enables reliable sensing for automation and straightforward integration with standard control hardware. This reduces wiring complexity and improves cycle repeatability on packaging and conveying lines where position feedback is critical. Operators benefit from faster commissioning and fewer sensor compatibility questions. Conformance to ISO 6432 and a standard mounting footprint simplify retrofits and panel-building, allowing quick interchange with existing actuators in legacy systems. Customers gain faster installation, predictable replacement lead times, and reduced spare-parts diversity. The configuration is well-suited for hygienic lines that require washdown resilience and cleanability. Adjustable cushioning minimizes impact, vibration, and noise, protecting the load and the cylinder during high-cycle operations. It also reduces wear on end-of-stroke valves and helps preserve precise positioning in pick-and-place tasks. The result is smoother motion profiles and longer tool life in automated assembly lines. With a 25 mm bore and a 320 mm stroke, the unit delivers a capable reach in compact conveyor modules and automated grippers. G1/8 porting and the included mounting accessories keep interfaces consistent with standard manifolds and fittings. Nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut are standard, delivering reliable assembly in vibration-prone environments and simplifying maintenance checks.

FAQs

KM/8026/M/320 is built to ISO 6432 mounting standards with a G1/8 port and standard nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut. This ensures straightforward replacement and compatibility with common Norgren and third-party valve manifolds. If your machine uses ISO 6432 enclosures or existing 25 mm bore actuators, retrofit is typically seamless with minimal rework.
The 25 mm bore provides sufficient actuation force for mid-load tasks, while the 320 mm stroke offers ample reach for compact conveyor modules and automated grippers. At 1–10 bar, the cylinder delivers reliable actuation with predictable travel, contributing to consistent cycle times and reduced start-stop wear on high-cycle packaging lines.
Yes. The stainless steel construction delivers corrosion resistance essential for washdown-heavy environments, and the product is designed with food-industry compatibility in mind. The magnetic piston enables robust sensing for automation, while adjustable cushioning helps maintain product integrity and line uptime in hygienic lines and automated handling tasks.
ISO 6432 compliance is documented for the KM/8026/M/320. The data provided does not list CE, IP, or SIL certifications. For regulatory projects, verify site-specific requirements and confirm CE and IP status with the supplier prior to deployment. Operating conditions include -10 to 80 °C and 1–10 bar, supporting safe use in demanding environments.
Maintenance benefits stem from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, protective seals, and adjustable cushioning, which extend cycle life and reduce unplanned downtime. ROI improves through lower replacement frequency, easier installation, and faster changeovers on packaging lines. When paired with standard Norgren control modules and preventive maintenance, customers typically see sustained uptime and lower total cost of ownership.
