FAQs
Mounting the RM/950/365 requires standard ISO mounting patterns compatible with a G1/2 port. Ensure proper alignment of the cylinder axis, select compatible mounting brackets, and account for the 365 mm stroke during travel. Use the adjustable cushioning to tailor deceleration and minimize impact on connected actuators, sensors, and fixtures.
The cylinder provides approximately 7600 N of theoretical thrust under rated conditions. Actuation speed depends on the supply pressure, load, and bypass flow; heavier loads or lower supply pressures slow the stroke. For high-speed cycles, optimize the load profile and ensure adequate cushioning to maintain consistent acceleration and deceleration.
Yes, it is designed for demanding automation with adjustable cushioning to control impact and wear. The 5" bore and 365 mm stroke support substantial actuation forces, while the G1/2 port and 2–10 bar range align with standard plant air systems, enabling reliable, repeatable cycles in packaging and assembly lines.
When selecting a cylinder for regulated environments, consider CE marking, IP ratings for ingress protection, and SIL-compatible control interfaces where applicable. While specific certifications for the RM/950/365 aren’t listed here, choosing equipment from the Martonair series helps align with industry standards and safety requirements for industrial automation.
Maintenance benefits come from the included QM/950/00 service kit and the RM/900 series compatibility, which simplifies parts sourcing and service routines. The durable anodised aluminium body and stainless rod reduce corrosion risks, while adjustable cushioning prolongs life and reduces downtime, contributing to a favorable return on investment in automated production.
