Feature: 80 mm bore Lintra cylinder provides a compact yet robust actuator for space-limited lines. Business Impact: enables higher-density layouts with consistent force delivery, reducing misalignment and rework. Application: ideal for small-interval pick-and-place, entry/exit gates, and limited-footprint clamping in packaging and assembly lines. Feature: C-foot mounting simplifies installation and alignment in fixtures with limited top-access. Business Impact: speeds up commissioning, lowers installation costs, and improves repeatability across machines. Application: commonly used on drawer slides, transfer conveyors, and inline conveyors where fixed positioning is essential. Feature: Lintra series heritage delivers reliable performance in automated environments. Business Impact: longer service life and reduced maintenance intervals, translating to lower total cost of ownership. Application: suitable for continuous-duty cycles in packaging, material handling, and automation cells. Feature: Compact 80 mm bore with standard mounting threads and compatible accessories. Business Impact: reduces part count and simplifies bill of materials while staying compatible with existing Norgren components. Application: integrates with related valves, manifolds, and fittings in multi-actuator systems. Feature: Sealed construction and robust materials support consistent operation under typical factory conditions. Business Impact: resists dust and debris ingress, preserving performance in dirty environments and reducing unexpected downtime. Application: ideal for dirty packaging lines, automotive components assembly, and general purpose automation.

FAQs
QM/46080/21 uses a C-foot mounting configuration designed for fixture-based installations where top access is limited. To install, align the actuator with the mounting plate, secure through-bore fasteners to the foot, verify plumb alignment to ensure even stroke, and connect supply lines to the ports. Use compatible mounting accessories from the Lintra ecosystem to maintain alignment across cycles and reduce vibration-induced wear.
The key specification is an 80 mm bore within the Lintra series, providing balanced actuation force in a compact form. Cycle time is influenced by system pressure, valve response, and load; with the compact footprint and repeatable stroke, this actuator enables predictable cycle timing in packaging and assembly tasks. For exact speeds, refer to your system’s pressure and control circuitry and validate with a manufacturer-provided test run.
Yes. The 80 mm bore Lintra cylinder offers compact installation in tight spaces while delivering reliable, repeatable motion suitable for pick-and-place, gating, and clamping in packaging lines and material-handling conveyors. Its foot mounting and compatibility with Norgren components simplify integration into multi-actuator automation cells and standardized packaging equipment.
Standards typically associated with Norgren Lintra products include CE conformity, with select variants offering IP-rated sealing for harsher environments. For safety-critical applications, look for SIL-ready configurations or safety-related accessories within the Lintra family. Always confirm the exact certification set for your model variant and applicable regional requirements prior to installation.
The Lintra cylinder is designed for long service life with minimal maintenance, reducing downtime and service costs in continuous automation environments. ROI stems from lower replacement rates, fewer rework steps due to consistent actuation, and faster changeovers in production lines. Pairing with compatible Norgren components also simplifies spares stocking and maintenance planning.
