Feature: Magnetic piston enables straightforward position sensing and integration with M/50 reed switch systems. Impact: Simplifies control logic and feedback loops, reducing wiring complexity and spare parts. Application: Ideal for inline sensors in pick-and-place and packaging automation. Feature: Double-acting design delivers consistent push-pull motion for reliable output under variable loads. Impact: Improves repeatability and load handling in small- to mid-stroke applications, reducing cycle errors. Application: Suitable for end-of-arm tooling and fixture actuation on assembly lines. Feature: 16 mm cylinder diameter with 50 mm stroke provides compact footprint without sacrificing stroke reach. Impact: Enables tighter machine layouts while preserving stroke capabilities, lowering overall system height and footprint. Application: Widely used in small robotic cells and selective gripping tasks. Feature: Anodised aluminium barrel and hard chrome plated steel piston rod deliver corrosion resistance and long life. Impact: Extends service intervals in humid or dusty environments, decreasing maintenance costs. Application: Harsh factory floors and outdoor enclosures in industrial automation. Feature: Buffer cushioning and piston rod guidance improve smooth operation and reduce mechanical shock. Impact: Minimizes vibration-induced wear and enhances productivity by enabling faster cycle times with less maintenance. Application: High-speed packaging and precision assembly lines. Feature: Port size M5 and Pneufit C fittings compatibility (C0K510405, C02250405, C02470405) simplify tubing installation and air supply layout. Impact: Reduces assembly time and risk of leaks, enabling reliable pneumatic plumbing. Application: Retrofit projects and new line builds using standard 4 mm tubing.

FAQs
Yes. The M/60116/M/50 supports Pneufit C push-in fittings and standard 4 mm tubing. Fittings available include C0K510405 (Banjo flow control), C02250405 (adaptor straight), and C02470405 (90° elbow). This simplifies mounting, reduces leak points, and speeds up commissioning on new or retrofit lines.
Key specs include a 16 mm cylinder diameter, 50 mm stroke, 1–8 bar operating pressure (15–116 psi), and a theoretical force of 147 N. Operating temperature ranges from 0 to 80 °C. The unit is designed for compressed air as the medium and features buffer cushioning for smooth operation.
Ideal for compact automation tasks such as pick-and-place, fixture actuation in packaging lines, small robotic cells, and assembly tooling. Its magnetic piston enables straightforward sensing, while the compact form factor supports tight machine layouts and rapid cycle tasks with consistent repeatability.
Certification details are not specified in the provided data. When integrating, verify your regional compliance requirements (CE marking, SIL safety, IP ratings) and ensure the actuation system, control electronics, and installation practices meet your plant’s safety and quality standards.
Service kits exist for related models (QM/60116/M/00 for M/60100, 16 mm) to support routine maintenance and parts replacement. For ongoing uptime, pair the unit with standard wear parts, schedule preventive maintenance, and leverage compatible Reed Switch M/50 options for position sensing.
