Norgren QM/46040/32 Lintra Cylinder - 40 mm bore
Part Number: QM/46040/32
Quick Summary
QM/46040/32 Lintra cylinder provides precise linear actuation for automation and control systems in industrial machinery. In tight spaces and high-demand lines, engineers struggle with misalignment, maintenance downtime, and recurring tool wear. Typical certifications for Lintra actuators include CE compliance and IP-rated protection, with SIL-capable configurations for safety-critical tasks. This model combines a compact 40 mm bore with a robust V-centre support design, delivering reliable installation and long-term cost savings across production lines. By choosing this specification, you simplify sourcing with a single, standardized actuator that fits common mounting patterns. That translates to faster line changeovers, reduced spare parts inventory, and predictable performance under demanding industrial conditions.

FAQs
Begin with the standard mounting pattern for Lintra cylinders, verify the bore alignment, then attach the unit using the V-centre support design to ensure stable, precise positioning. Connect air lines with appropriate quick-disconnect fittings and confirm there are no obstructions in the stroke path. Check for parallelism after installation and perform a light functional test before full production.
The unit uses a 40 mm bore to provide compact yet reliable linear actuation within automation and control systems. Expect repeatable extension and retraction within the Lintra series framework, robust guidance, and standard mounting compatibility. For safety-critical lines, plan for SIL-capable configurations and ensure IP-rated variants are chosen for your environmental protection requirements.
Yes. The QM/46040/32 Lintra cylinder is designed for automated packaging and machine tending tasks, offering a compact footprint and stable mounting that improve cycle times and positional accuracy. Its 40 mm bore supports reliable force delivery in confined spaces, while the V-centre support helps maintain alignment during high-speed operations.
Typical Lintra actuators are CE compliant and offer IP-rated options for environmental protection. If safety-critical applications are involved, SIL-capable configurations are available depending on the system architecture. Always verify the exact certification suite with the supplier for the specific actuator configuration and project requirements.
The design emphasizes robust seals and durable construction to extend service intervals and reduce maintenance costs. The compact form factor lowers installation time and spare parts handling, contributing to lower total cost of ownership. In high-volume lines, these benefits translate to higher uptime, more consistent product quality, and faster changeovers.
