Norgren RM/93040/M/10 Pneumatic Cylinder - Magnetic
Part Number: RM/93040/M/10
Quick Summary
RM/93040/M/10 is a compact single-acting pneumatic cylinder designed for reliable linear actuation in automation and packaging lines. Space constraints, wear-prone seals, and corrosion risk challenge small-scale automation projects, making a compact, durable actuator essential. While the data snapshot does not list certifications, verify CE marking, IP protection, and SIL compatibility on the official datasheet and supplier documentation. This approach supports higher uptime and predictable performance, while the product’s magnetic piston and stainless steel rod reinforce longevity in demanding environments. For engineers and procurement teams, the combination of space efficiency and robust materials translates into reduced bill-of-materials cost and faster time-to-value in automated systems.

FAQs
The RM/93040/M/10 uses a standard G1/8 air port for supply and can be mounted in multiple orientations using common MISOR Norgren mounting accessories. Ensure proper alignment to avoid side loads, use appropriate fasteners, and verify that the bore alignment matches your fixture. The compact length supports tight envelopes and minimizes interference with adjacent components, improving overall machine reliability.
Operating pressure ranges from 2 to 10 bar (29 to 145 psi). Theoretical force is 566 N with a 40 mm bore, enabling reliable actuation for typical clamping or pushing tasks. For precise force needs, verify actual cycle loads and friction conditions in your application to ensure performance remains within spec throughout life.
Yes, its compact form factor and single-acting design support fast actuation in space-constrained pick-and-place setups. However, users should consider the absence of cushioning and tune control parameters to manage impact within cycle timings. The magnetic piston assists with sensor feedback, aiding repeatable positioning in high-speed cycles.
The provided data does not specify certifications such as CE, IP, or SIL. For certified applications, consult the official Norgren datasheet (Datasheet PDF) and supplier documentation to confirm compliance details and any region-specific approvals before deployment in regulated environments.
The cylinder employs an anodised aluminium barrel and stainless steel piston rod for corrosion resistance, plus a standard magnetic piston for easier sensing. These features support longer service intervals, reduced maintenance costs, and more predictable lifecycle costs in automated lines, contributing to a favorable return on investment through uptime and reduced replacement needs.
