Norgren M/60284/180 Rotary Vane Actuator - 4.1 Nm
Part Number: M/60284/180
Quick Summary
Norgren M/60284/180 rotary vane actuator is a compact pneumatic solution delivering precise 180° rotation for small to mid-size automation tasks. This helps engineers reduce footprint while maintaining reliable torque and stroke performance across cycles. While space is at a premium in panel layouts, users gain repeatable motion with buffer cushioning to dampen impact and extend component life. Designed for industrial environments, it supports industry-standard fittings and maintenance paths to minimize downtime. In addition to its compact form, the actuator aligns with common safety and compatibility expectations, enabling efficient system integration. This combination of compact form factor, robust construction, and flexible mounting supports high-mix, low-volume production lines and retrofit projects alike.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The M/60284/180 uses a stainless steel barrel and aluminium body to deliver a robust, corrosion-resistant core, reducing maintenance costs in wash-down environments and extending service life on conveyor lines. This translates to lower total cost of ownership and higher uptime for packaging and assembly applications. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The double-acting design with buffer cushioning provides controlled deceleration at end stops, minimizing vibration and mechanical wear in pick-and-place stations and clamp modules. This yields smoother operation and longer life for grippers and fixtures in high-cycle automation. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A 180° rotation with a fixed or adjustable angle option supports multi-point actuation in small machining cells, enabling quick reconfiguration for product variants without new hardware. This reduces changeover times and accelerates line throughput. Feature → Business Impact → Application: G1/8 port size and a 2–10 bar operating range offer versatile integration with Pneufit C fittings and standard compressed-air supplies, simplifying installation and reducing leakage risks in retrofits. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The M/60284/180 range supports stainless steel and nitrile seals, delivering compatibility with a wide temperature range (-5 to 60 °C) and light oil compatibility in most cleanroom-adjacent facilities, ensuring predictable performance in varied environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Mounting options QM/60284/21 and QM/60284/22 enable flange or style C installations, ensuring rapid, vibration-resistant mounting for robotics cells and hazardous-areas interfaces where space is constrained. This supports scalable automation and easier maintenance.

FAQs
The actuator supports flange mounting style B (QM/60284/22) and mounting style C (QM/60284/21) for M/60280 family variants. This provides flexible installation in compact robotics cells and clamp assemblies, enabling quick swaps between configurations without redesigning the base plate.
Use the Pneufit C push-in fittings catalogued as C0K510618, C02470618, and C02250618 for 6 mm tubing and G1/8 ports. Pair with PA2-0006100 or PA2-0006025C tubing and the M/60284/180’s G1/8 port to ensure a secure, leak-free connection and straightforward field assembly.
Yes, its double-acting design with buffer cushioning minimizes impact, while the stainless steel barrel and aluminium body resist wear in repeated cycles. For best results, operate within 2–10 bar and keep lubricants within the recommended regime; consider service kits QM/60284/00 for routine maintenance.
Operating temperature ranges from -5 to 60 °C with compressed air as the medium. The barrel is stainless steel, the body aluminium, and seals are nitrile rubber. This combination supports broad environmental compatibility while maintaining corrosion resistance and seal integrity in typical factory atmospheres.
Routine maintenance via the QM/60284/00 service kit minimizes downtime by simplifying seal and cushion replacement. In conjunction with modular fittings and mountings, customers can reduce unplanned stoppages, extend service life, and achieve faster changeovers in high-mix production lines, improving overall equipment effectiveness.
