FAQs
Yes. The QA/8040/61/400 employs standard mounting patterns and widely-used fittings typical of Norgren guide block cylinders, enabling straightforward mounting to compatible frames, fixtures, and brackets. When planning integration, verify bolt pattern, fastening torque, and compatible end fittings to ensure a seamless retrofit or new-build installation.
Core specs include a 40 mm bore and a 400 mm stroke. Guidance is provided by a roller bearing style 61 guide block for smooth, repeatable motion. These specifications support precise positioning with reliable cycle performance in compact footprints, suitable for high-cycle automation tasks.
This model is well-suited for packaging lines, automated assembly, and fixture positioning where compact geometry and long travel are required. The combination of a 40 mm bore and 400 mm stroke supports efficient space utilization in robotics cells, pick-and-place stations, and fixture-alignment tasks across manufacturing environments.
In typical European deployments, CE compliance is expected for electronic and pneumatic components. IP protection considerations address dust and moisture exposure in factory settings, while SIL considerations may apply to safety-critical integrations. Always confirm the specific certifications listed in the accompanying datasheet and installation documents for your region.
The roller-bearing guide block reduces friction and wear, extending service intervals and lowering maintenance frequency. Long travel with a compact bore minimizes the number of actuators required, reducing upfront hardware costs and simplifying spare-part inventories. Access to CAD models and installation guides speeds commissioning, cutting engineering time and accelerating time-to-value.
