Feature → Business Impact → Application: The Lintra Plus rodless cylinder integrates an external guiding system and a 63 mm diameter bore, delivering a compact footprint with a stable, backlash-resistant stroke. This translates to higher positioning accuracy and reduced misalignment in pick-and-place and material-handling tasks in high-speed lines. Application: automated assembly, packaging, and transfer systems benefit from improved repeatability and easier integration with existing fixtures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Lightweight extrusion with universal mounting grooves enables rapid installation and flexible orientation, minimizing downtime during line changes. Application: retrofit projects and line expansions in aerospace, automotive, and electronics manufacturing gain faster deployment. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Proven and patented sealing along with dust protection keeps contaminants out, extending service life in dirty environments and reducing maintenance intervals. Application: conveyors, grippers, and fixture actuations in dusty plants. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Interchangeability with series M/46000 allows spares compatibility across the Lintra Plus family, lowering inventory costs and simplifying sourcing. Application: multi-line facilities and OEMs seeking standardized components. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Magnetic piston and integrated sensing (M/50/LSU/5V) provide reliable position feedback for closed-loop control, improving automation stability. Application: PLC/robot integration and safety interlocks. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Durable anodised aluminium barrel and Nitrile/PU seals withstand cycling and temperature variation, ensuring consistent performance from -30 to 80 °C and 1 to 8 bar. Application: high-cycle operations in varied climates and applications requiring robust fluid compatibility.
