Norgren M/146240/M/500 Lintra Rodless Cylinder - 40 mm bore
Part Number: M/146240/M/500
Quick Summary
Norgren M/146240/M/500 Lintra Rodless Cylinder enables precise linear motion for automated manufacturing and packaging lines. In compact cells, engineers confront limited space, misalignment risks, and maintenance downtime that slow throughput. While specific certifications vary by region, CE conformity, IP-rated dust protection expectations, and SIL safety considerations are common benchmarks for modern pneumatic actuators in critical processes. This model combines a 40 mm bore with a 500 mm stroke, a roller-guided rodless design, and an adjustable cushioning system to optimize cycle times. Its lightweight extrusion, interchangeable mounting grooves, and dust protection deliver reliable performance in demanding environments while reducing total cost of ownership through longer service intervals and easier installation.

FAQs
The rodless design uses universal mounting grooves and a robust roller-guided system, enabling flexible orientation and quick alignment within tight spaces. It pairs with standard G1/4 port connections and is interchangeable with the M/46000 series, simplifying retrofits and spare-part planning. For best results, position counterplates and brackets to maintain straight travel and minimize bending moments on the cylinder rod.
Key specs include a 40 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, G1/4 port, operating pressure of 1 to 8 bar, and a temperature range of -30 to 80 °C (-22 to 176 °F). The unit weighs 6.75 kg and uses an anodised aluminium barrel with polyurethane piston seals and nitrile rubber seals, delivering consistent force, repeatability, and durability in standard plant air systems.
Yes, thanks to the roller-guided rodless design, adjustable cushioning for tailored deceleration, and a magnetic piston for reliable position sensing. These features support repeatable positioning and reduced bounce in high-cycle applications, improving throughput while reducing maintenance needs. Ensure control logic accounts for the stroke length and acceleration profiles to maximize performance.
The provided data does not explicitly list certifications. For regional compliance, verify CE marking and applicable IP protection requirements with your distributor, and confirm SIL safety considerations for the intended safety category of your machine. Always consult the official datasheet and local regulations to ensure adherence to your specific application and risk assessment.
Dust protection is standard, reducing particulate intrusion and extending seal life. The combination of polyurethane piston seals and nitrile seals, along with adjustable cushioning, lowers wear and shock loads, translating to longer service intervals and less downtime. Interchangeability with M/46000 can streamline spares management and phase upgrades across multiple lines, enhancing overall plant efficiency.
