Norgren QA/8080/51/200 Guide block - 80 mm bore
Part Number: QA/8080/51/200
Quick Summary
QA/8080/51/200 is a guide block with plain bearing guidance for precise linear motion in automation and control systems. These components can suffer from misalignment and wear that disrupt line speed and push maintenance costs higher. In regulated contexts, CE compliance, IP ratings for protective enclosures, and SIL-related safety considerations are commonly required to ensure safe, reliable operation. With a robust, installation-friendly design and compatibility with standard mounting patterns, this block helps reduce spare parts inventory and downtime while delivering predictable performance across diverse automation environments. This combination supports faster procurement and consistent system design across projects. Engineers value the availability of CAD data and documentation to accelerate spec reviews.

80 mm bore with a plain bearing guide block delivers smooth, low-friction guidance, reducing wear and improving repeatability in high-cycle automation. This translates to longer service life and fewer unplanned maintenance events, especially in packaging, machine tending, and assembly cells where precise travel is critical. The 200 mm stroke increases reach within a compact footprint, enabling longer travel without additional actuators. The business impact is reduced component counts and simplified mechanical design, lowering installation time and minimizing potential misalignment during upgrades or line changes. Applications include pick-and-place stations, conveyor transfers, and automatic inspection cells. Compatibility and installation advantages simplify deployment; the design supports standard mounting patterns and is supported by downloadable CAD data and installation guides, accelerating engineering reviews and reducing drift. This also helps procurement teams consolidate parts and shorten lead times. Reliability in high-speed cycles is enhanced by the plain bearing arrangement, offering predictable motion with fewer lubrication points than more complex guides, supporting cost-effective expansion of automation programs. Industry insights indicate CAD-ready components shorten project timelines, improve design-for-manufacture outcomes, and streamline change management across lines.
