FAQs
The QA/8040/61/500 uses standard mounting patterns compatible with common Norgren guide blocks and fixed-position mounting hardware. Consult the CAD model and installation guide for exact hole spacing, fastener sizes, and torque recommendations. This ensures secure, vibration-resistant installation in automated cells and packaging lines.
A 40 mm bore supports robust load-bearing capacity with tight positional accuracy, while a 500 mm stroke enables longer travel per cycle. Together they deliver repeatable motion essential for pick-and-place tasks, material handling, and precision alignment in automated assembly, with reduced risk of stick-slip and misalignment across cycles.
Yes, the QA/8040/61/500 is designed to meet CE safety standards commonly required for automation components and is backed by ISO 9001 quality systems. This combination supports compliance in regulated environments and ensures reliable operation in high-speed packaging and order-fulfillment lines.
The roller bearing guide block minimizes friction-related wear, reducing maintenance frequency. Regular inspection of mounting, seals, and connection points plus alignment checks will extend service life. Although initial costs may be higher than basic cylinders, the reduced downtime and longer lifecycle translate to lower total cost of ownership over the equipment’s life.
