Norgren RM/91020/M/30 Compact Cylinder – Magnetic
Part Number: RM/91020/M/30
Quick Summary
Norgren RM/91020/M/30 compact cylinder provides space-saving pneumatic actuation for precision automation in tight enclosures. When compact footprints challenge stroke, mounting, or routing, this model minimizes footprint without compromising performance. Although the data here does not enumerate SIL, CE, or IP certifications, the unit uses a magnetic piston, a corrosion-resistant anodised barrel, and long-life seals to meet harsh industrial conditions. With a 20 mm bore, 30 mm stroke, M5 port, and an operating window of 2–10 bar, it integrates smoothly with standard compressed-air systems while helping reduce downtime and total cost of ownership. This makes it a practical choice for packaging, handling, and assembly lines where compact, reliable cylinders are essential.

Feature: 20 mm bore with 30 mm stroke in a compact form factor. Business Impact: Space savings enable multi-axis or densely packed automation cells, improving throughput and reducing machine footprint. Application: Pick-and-place stations and inline packaging where limited cabinet space is a constraint. Feature: Single acting with M5 port and 2–10 bar operating pressure. Business Impact: Simplified plumbing and control reduce installation time and maintenance costs while ensuring consistent actuation force. Application: Linear actuators in confined spaces across assembly lines. Feature: Magnetic piston design. Business Impact: Easier non-contact position sensing with sensors along the cylinder body, enabling reliable feedback for cycle timing. Application: Sensor-enabled automation and inline inspection systems. Feature: Anodised aluminium barrel and stainless steel piston rod. Business Impact: Corrosion resistance and durability lower maintenance intervals and extend service life in demanding environments. Application: Food & beverage, packaging, and continuous production lines where exposure to humidity or contaminants is common. Feature: No cushioning. Business Impact: Direct actuation reduces component count but requires careful load management; balance with external stops or cushioning in high-speed cycles to protect adjacent equipment. Application: Fast-closing clamps and push applications in compact conveyors. Feature: Theoretical force of 161 N at rated conditions. Business Impact: Predictable push force supports consistent part handling and clamping without overdesign. Application: Lightweight part transfer, fixture actuation, and gapping operations. Feature: One third the basic length of a corresponding ISO/VDMA model. Business Impact: Significantly reduced machine length improves layout flexibility and reduces material costs. Application: Inline machinery where vertical/horizontal space is at a premium.

FAQs
Start with the M5 port connections and ensure a clean, dry compressed-air supply within the 2–10 bar range. Align mounting hardware to the cylinder’s orientation for a straight push, verify that the stroke is unobstructed, and integrate any position sensors if required by your control system. The magnetic piston allows easy sensor pickup without secondary actuators, simplifying installation and reducing downtime.
The cylinder provides a theoretical push force up to 161 N at rated pressures, with an operating window of 2–10 bar and a temperature range of -5 to 80 °C. Its low-friction, long-life seals and corrosion-resistant construction support reliable, repeatable actuation on packaging, handling, and small-part transfer tasks.
Yes, for moderate-speed pick-and-place tasks where space is at a premium. The 20 mm bore and 30 mm stroke provide compact actuation with predictable force, while the magnetic piston enables reliable sensing. For very high-speed cycles, ensure load profiles remain within the 161 N capability and consider potential cushioning or external stops to manage impact forces.
Certification details are not listed in the provided data. In practice, check for region-specific approvals such as CE marking and IP ratings with the supplier or distributor before deployment in regulated environments. The unit’s robust materials and design align with common industry standards, but confirm exact certifications for your application.
ROI benefits come from its space efficiency, reduced machine footprint, and long service life thanks to corrosion-resistant materials and long-life seals. Fewer maintenance events, simpler installation with M5 porting, and compatibility with standard compressed-air systems translate to lower lifecycle costs and improved overall equipment effectiveness.
