Quick Summary

Norgren M/146150/M/500 Rodless is a high-precision pneumatic actuator designed for linear motion in automated cells and packaging lines. Operators often face misalignment, dust ingress, and limited mounting options in rodless designs, which can slow cycles and increase maintenance. To support safety and compliance, this Lintra Plus model commonly offers CE conformity and SIL-ready configurations, with dust protection as standard and an external guiding system for reliable positioning. By providing universal mounting grooves and interchangeability with the M/46000 family, it enables faster integration and reduced spare-part diversity. The combination of a 50 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, adjustable cushioning, and magnetic piston features makes it well-suited for precise, repeatable actuation in automotive and general automation applications.

FAQs

This cylinder uses universal mounting grooves designed for straightforward integration and interchangeability within the Lintra Plus family. Confirm mounting pattern compatibility with the M/46000 series and verify the G3/8 port connections for your manifold. The external guiding system aids alignment, and the 50 mm bore/500 mm stroke should match your required stroke and payload. Consult the datasheet and consider a pre-installed mounting kit to minimize retrofit complexity.
Operating pressure is specified at 1–8 bar (15–116 psi) and operating temperature ranges from -30 to 80 °C (-22 to 176 °F). These ranges support most general factory environments and provide reliable performance for typical pick-and-place and machine-tending tasks when matched with compatible fittings and lubricants.
Yes, with adjustable cushioning and a rigid external guide, the cylinder supports consistent stroke control and reduced impact on payloads at moderate to high cycle rates. The 50 mm bore combined with a 500 mm stroke enables a compact footprint while delivering sufficient linear travel for many packaging and automation scenarios.
The product line commonly supports CE conformity and can be configured in SIL-ready variants for safety-critical applications. Dust protection is standard, aligning with IP-rated expectations in dirty environments. For exact certification scope on your order, verify the datasheet or request the specific compliance pack from your supplier.
Key benefits include longer seal life due to a proven sealing system, lower maintenance due to dust protection, and interchangeability with related series to simplify spares and training. Expect reduced downtime through reliable operation and faster installation thanks to universal mounting grooves and standard porting.
