Norgren PM/31062 Air Bellow - 6" diameter, 115 mm stroke
Part Number: PM/31062
Quick Summary
Norgren PM/31062 air bellow is a single-acting pneumatic actuator designed for compact automation and vibration isolation on manufacturing lines. This solution helps eliminate lubrication requirements and reduce downtime by delivering frictionless operation with minimal wear. While many systems demand regular maintenance, PM/31062 is configured to support critical certifications and regulatory expectations, with the potential for CE conformity and robust IP-rated protection in typical industrial environments (confirm with supplier). For engineers seeking reliable performance in tight spaces, the aluminium body, 0–8 bar operating range, and 115 mm stroke combine to provide predictable high-force actuation while keeping installation simple. In practice, this translates to shorter cycle times, lower maintenance costs, and improved machine uptime across production floors.

FAQs
Installation starts with verifying supply pressure within 0–8 bar and ensuring a clean, dry air supply. Mount the unit using standard pneumatic fittings to the G1/2 port, align the bore with the load path, and secure the actuator to a rigid mounting surface to prevent side loading. Use compatible seals and verify the stroke fits the available space; test actuations at low pressure first to confirm smooth travel and repeatable end positions.
PM/31062 excels in short-stroke, high-force actuation where space is at a premium. Typical applications include vibration-sensitive packing and automation lines, clamping and pressing tasks, and compact pick-and-place or feed mechanisms. Its aluminium body and non-magnetic construction make it suitable for installations near sensitive sensors without magnetic interference, while its high force supports demanding assembly operations.
Operate PM/31062 within -30 to 50 °C and at pressures from 0 to 8 bar using clean, dry compressed air. The port size is G1/2, the nominal diameter is 6 inches, and the stroke is 115 mm. The body is aluminium and non-magnetic, designed for quick integration into standard pneumatic circuits with common fittings, while delivering up to 10600 N of force.
Maintenance is typically minimized due to frictionless operation and no lubrication requirements. Regular checks should focus on air quality, checking for leaks, and inspecting mounting hardware for tightness. If the line operates in dusty or humid environments, consider a brief purge or filter-regulator-lubricator (FRL) setup to maintain air purity, which helps sustain performance and longevity.
Since PM/31062 is maintenance-free in terms of lubrication, you can expect lower ongoing lubricant costs and reduced downtime for routine servicing. The high-force capability in a compact footprint improves cycle times and throughput, reducing energy use per cycle and enabling more productive automation cells. In retrofit projects, the straightforward installation also shortens commissioning time, delivering faster time-to-value.
