Norgren QM/408 Pneumatic Mount - RM/900 Series
Part Number: QM/408
Quick Summary
Norgren QM/408 is a precision pneumatic mounting unit used to secure RM/900 style F Mountings in compact automation assemblies. Designers often struggle with misalignment and longer installation times when integrating mounting systems into tight spaces, leading to downtime and rework. This product family aligns with CE conformity and offers options for robust IP-rated configurations alongside SIL-ready variants within the RM/900 Martonair lineup. By delivering a stable, repeatable mounting platform, QM/408 helps engineers simplify integration, reduce calibration needs, and accelerate validation. In practice, the solution supports more efficient machine build, shorter commissioning cycles, and improved uptime for OEMs and end users, while maintaining compatibility with CAD workflows and standard data sheets. This combination translates into lower total cost of ownership and faster time to market.

Feature: RM/900 Range with Style F mountings and a defined 4 inch footprint enables precise alignment and rigid support, reducing misalignment rework and calibration drift. This translates to faster assembly and consistent performance across units, lowering setup time in packaging lines and automation cells. Designed for tight spaces, QM/408 integrates smoothly with small robotic fixtures and conveyors without compromising reach or accessibility. Business Impact: Improved installation accuracy reduces rework costs and shortens commissioning windows. Application: Packaging lines, robotic cells, and compact automation fixtures benefit from reliable alignment and space efficiency. Feature: CAD configurability and readily accessible datasheets streamline engineering workflows. The availability of CAD models and the datasheet reduces design risk, accelerates validation, and minimizes guesswork during integration. Teams can quickly compare tolerances and verify mounting clearances before hardware procurement, which shortens project timelines. Business Impact: Faster design cycles and fewer procurement delays. Application: Early design reviews and CAD assemblies across OEM and systems integrator environments. Feature: Compatibility with the RM/900 Martonair family simplifies BOM management, enabling standardization across multiple lines. Engineers can reuse mounting cavities and adapters across products, reducing SKU proliferation and supplier complexity. The result is lower procurement costs and smoother production planning for OEMs. Business Impact: Reduced SKU count and streamlined purchasing. Application: Multi-line packaging equipment and automation platforms. Feature: Robust mounting quality supports operation under typical industrial conditions, including vibration and dynamic cycling found in automation environments. Style F arrangement and optimized footprint help ensure secure clamping and resilient alignment during maintenance or reconfiguration. Business Impact: Minimized downtime and easier retrofits. Application: Space-constrained robotic cells and conveyor systems. Feature: Compliance options include CE conformity and availability of IP-rated configurations within the RM/900 Martonair range to meet industry requirements. The combination of predictable installation, repeatable performance, and certified compatibility supports faster time-to-market and improved return on investment for integrators and end users. Business Impact: Regulatory readiness and long-term reliability. Application: Regulated or safety-conscious manufacturing environments.
