Norgren QM/146040/21 Pneumatic Cylinder - Lintra 40 mm bore
Part Number: QM/146040/21
Quick Summary
Norgren QM/146040/21 pneumatic cylinder delivers precise linear actuation for compact automation assemblies. Engineers often struggle with mounting options, misalignment, and space constraints in tight control panels. CE marking is standard on the platform, with IP-rated variants and safety-compliant installation practices that help ensure reliable operation in harsh industrial environments. Designed for Lintra Plus mounting with a 40 mm bore, this cylinder reduces setup time and maintenance costs, enabling consistent performance across multiple lines. By aligning with standard installation methods and available CAD resources, it accelerates procurement and minimizes downtime.

Lintra Plus mounting compatibility enables straightforward integration into existing frames and fixtures across automated lines. This reduces installation time, minimizes misalignment risks, and lowers rework costs during line changeovers in high-mix environments. The pattern suits compact cells such as electronics assembly and packaging stations where upgrade cycles are frequent. With a 40 mm bore, the cylinder delivers a balanced actuation force suitable for moderate-speed cycles without increasing the system footprint. It provides predictable stroke behavior in space-constrained layouts, reducing the need for oversized options and simplifying hydraulic or pneumatic balance. In routine tasks like pick-and-place and clamping, operators enjoy repeatable performance and reliable cycle times. Foot mounting C enhances stability in tight enclosures and on light robotic arms, helping to minimize deflection and data drift during high-cycle operation. The robust mounting configuration improves positional accuracy and extends service life by reducing dynamic loads at the piston rod. This also supports safer, easier maintenance through accessible mounting points. CAD availability and a complete datasheet accelerate design-in, validation, and supplier qualification. Engineers can drop the model into assemblies, verify clearance, and confirm porting against existing fittings before production. The combination of Lintra Plus compatibility and standardised port geometry simplifies retrofit projects and reduces engineering risk. Compatibility with standard ISO port sizes and mounting patterns ensures smooth spares planning and rapid substitutions in multi-vendor environments. This translates to lower total cost of ownership, faster downtime recovery, and more predictable procurement cycles for line upgrades and maintenance.
