Norgren QA/8080/51/500 Guide Block - 80 mm Bore
Part Number: QA/8080/51/500
Quick Summary
Norgren QA/8080/51/500 guide block is a precision linear actuator designed for reliable positioning in automation and packaging lines. It features an 80 mm bore and a 500 mm stroke, with plain bearing guidance delivering smooth motion under high-cycle loads. Primary applications include pick-and-place stations, fixture alignment, and transfer tasks within automated assembly cells. Why it matters: reduced friction and wear extend service life, while the robust body supports lower maintenance costs in demanding environments. CAD models and the Installation Guide PDF are readily available to accelerate design reviews and commissioning, helping technicians confirm fit, clearance, and mounting compatibility before hardware arrives. Integrated with Norgren's QA family, this block promotes predictable runout, repeatability, and board-to-line consistency across modern control systems.
