Norgren RM/92016/M/50 Pneumatic Cylinder - Magnetic piston
Part Number: RM/92016/M/50
Quick Summary
Norgren RM/92016/M/50 is a compact double-acting pneumatic cylinder designed for precise linear actuation in automated assembly lines. When space is at a premium, its short profile helps maintain throughput without compromising force or return speed. This design leverages a magnetic piston for full control-system versatility, a corrosion-resistant anodised barrel, and a stainless-steel rod to resist wear in demanding environments. Common considerations for practical deployment include reliability over extended cycles, straightforward mounting, and predictable performance across a wide operating range. In practice, this model aligns with RM/92000/M families to support scalable automation strategies and cost-effective maintenance. Its standard magnetic piston enables reliable sensing and integration with common control architectures.

One-third the length of a typical ISO/VDMA cylinder, with a 16 mm bore and 50 mm stroke, minimizes machine footprint. This compact profile reduces enclosure costs and simplifies retrofit projects while preserving travel and thrust, making it ideal for tight-packaging lines, small-part transfer, and control cabinets where space is at a premium. The magnetic piston enables reliable position sensing and seamless integration with standard PLCs and sensors, boosting repeatability and diagnostic capability for automated sequences. The fully non-corrodible specification, including an anodised aluminium barrel and a stainless-steel piston rod, extends life in demanding environments and reduces maintenance intervals, supporting uptime in moisture-exposed or harsh production lines. Operating at 1–10 bar with a standard M5 port, the cylinder remains broadly compatible with common pneumatic systems, streamlining sourcing and installation across multi-line installations. No cushioning minimizes response time, delivering faster cycling for high-speed indexing and precise stop positions in fast-pack operations while still offering predictable performance with minimal set-up.

FAQs
RM/92016/M/50 offers a compact footprint with a 16 mm bore and 50 mm stroke, simplifying mounting in confined enclosures. Ensure correct alignment with the cylinder axis to prevent side loading, use appropriate mounting brackets, and verify that the M5 port provides secure tubing connections. Consider space for quick-disconnect fittings and sensor wiring for a clean, reliable installation in automation lines.
The cylinder operates from 1 to 10 bar (14 to 145 psi) and delivers a theoretical force of 121 N. This combination supports typical automation tasks requiring moderate thrust within a compact package. For dynamic performance, account for speed, load, and mechanical stops to maintain consistent move-and-stop cycles in production environments.
Yes. The 16 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, and 121 N thrust are well-suited for small-part transfer and light pick-and-place tasks. The magnetic piston enables easy sensing and control integration, while the compact form factor simplifies placement in tight packaging cells. For high-speed repeatability, ensure end-of-stroke sensing and mounting alignment are optimized to minimize dwell time.
Consult the datasheet and supplier documentation to verify CE marking, IP protection level, and any SIL-related compatibility for control interfaces. While the RM/92016/M/50 family supports standard pneumatic practice, certifications can vary by region and application. Always confirm with the datasheet and your compliance team before deploying in regulated environments.
The design uses a magnetic piston, long-life seals, and a corrosion-resistant anodised barrel with a stainless-steel rod, reducing wear and extending service intervals. These features minimize downtime and maintenance costs in demanding environments. Regular inspection of seals and sensor connections, along with proper lubrication per the datasheet, will sustain performance over the product’s lifecycle.
