Quick Summary

Norgren RM/91040/M/35 pneumatic cylinder is a compact single-acting actuator ideal for confined automation tasks. Engineers often wrestle with space constraints and wear in traditional cylinders, making it difficult to fit actuators into tight layouts. Although certification specifics aren’t listed here, this unit’s rugged, non-corrodible materials and magnetic piston align with common industry expectations for CE marking, IP ratings, and SIL safety features when integrated into compliant machines. Its one-third length versus ISO/VDMA equivalents supports high-density layouts, while 2–10 bar operation and 687 N thrust enable reliable performance. The design also emphasizes installation efficiency, low maintenance, and predictable lifecycle—key value drivers for cost-conscious manufacturing environments.

FAQs

The RM/91040/M/35 uses a standard G1/8 port and a compact mounting envelope designed for space-constrained installations. It supports typical pneumatic manifolds and mounting accessories used in automation cells. With a magnetic piston for sensor-ready feedback, installation teams can integrate position sensing without custom hardware. Verify your fixture compatibility with the bore, stroke, and mounting pattern in your system drawings.
This model operates at 2 to 10 bar (29 to 145 psi) and delivers 687 N of theoretical force with a 40 mm bore and 35 mm stroke. Its single-acting design suits push or pull configurations depending on the end-of-stroke setup, while the lack of cushioning supports faster cycles in applications where speed is prioritized. Consider duty cycle and cycle life when specifying for high-throughput lines.
Yes, its compact length and 40 mm bore enable precise linear actuation in tight packaging environments. The magnetic piston supports sensor integration for position feedback, aiding accuracy in pick-and-place cycles. The 2–10 bar range accommodates variable air supply without compromising repeatability, making it well-suited for end-of-line pick-and-place heads and small gripper actuation.
Specific certifications are not listed in the provided data. For strict regulatory alignment, consult the Norgren datasheet and your internal standards team to confirm CE marking, IP ratings, SIL safety classifications, and any customer-specific compliance requirements. The datasheet referenced by the product page should provide definitive certification details.
The RM/91040/M/35 uses a low-friction, long-life seal design and non-corrodible construction, reducing lubrication needs and maintenance downtime. The anodised aluminium barrel and stainless steel rod resist wear in demanding environments, improving cycle life and return on investment. Sensor-friendly magnetic piston also lowers total cost of ownership by simplifying diagnostics and control integration.
