FAQs
The QA/8032/51/250 uses standard Norgren mounting interfaces designed for straightforward retrofit into existing automation frames. You should account for a compact envelope with a 32 mm bore and 250 mm stroke, ensuring adequate clearance for rod end attachments and end caps. The unit supports common mounting patterns used in Cartesian and linear actuator assemblies and is compatible with Norgren mounting brackets and soft-start accessories to optimize acceleration profiles and reduce vibration during startup.
The 32 mm bore determines the piston area and thus the maximum actuation force at a given supply pressure, while the 250 mm stroke defines total travel. In practice, this combination yields reliable linear motion over a 250 mm range with predictable dynamic response. For high-speed cycles, ensure proper cushioning and port sizing to maintain stroke accuracy and minimize dynamic backlash. This configuration is well-suited for precise pick-and-place or alignment tasks in confined spaces.
Yes. The plain bearing style 51 guide block is designed for high-cycle operation, offering low friction, stable guidance, and predictable wear characteristics. For packaging lines or automated assembly, this translates to extended intervals between maintenance, reduced particulate accumulation, and consistent repeatability. To maximize uptime, pair it with correct mounting hardware and lubrication routines recommended in the Installation Guide.
The QA/8032/51/250 is CE-compliant and aligned with ISO quality controls, supporting safe operation and consistent performance across European markets. It is designed to meet general industry standards for pneumatic components and to minimize regulatory risk in multi-site deployments. RoHS compliance is typically observed for electronic integration within pneumatic systems, further supporting environmentally responsible design and compliance.
Norgren provides CAD data via CAD download links and a dedicated Installation Guide to accelerate commissioning. You can access the CAD assets for accurate modeling and fit checks, as well as the Installation Guide for correct assembly, mounting, and lubrication procedures. These resources help reduce installation time, improve first-time fit, and lower the total cost of ownership by avoiding field adjustments after startup.
