FAQs
The QM/8320/23 uses a rear clevis mounting design that supports straightforward fixture integration and alignment. Ensure bore compatibility with your fixture tolerances and verify mounting hole spacing for secure attachment. The included CAD resources simplify alignment checks during engineering validation and commissioning, reducing setup time on new lines.
A 320 mm bore provides substantial actuation force suitable for heavy-load cycles common in transfer and clamp operations. Exact thrust is dependent on supply pressure and piston area, so consult the datasheet for precise values at your operating pressure. In practice, expect strong, consistent actuation and improved cycle reliability under repetitive duty.
Industries such as packaging, automotive assembly, and material handling benefit from the 320 mm bore’s high thrust and the rear clevis mount’s installation flexibility. The actuator supports rapid line changes, robust fixture design, and reliable performance in automated cells, making it a solid choice for lines requiring durable linear actuation and straightforward maintenance.
Certification details are not listed in the provided data. In practice, industrial cylinders often align with CE safety standards and IP-rated housing where applicable.
