Norgren RT/57232/JM/100 Roundline Cylinder - Magnetic
Part Number: RT/57232/JM/100
Quick Summary
Norgren RT/57232/JM/100 Roundline cylinder provides precise pneumatic actuation for compact automation in manufacturing. Engineers often struggle with space constraints and maintenance-heavy cycles when using longer ISO/VDMA cylinders. Designed with a magnetic piston, buffer cushioning and a robust end-cap design, it delivers reliable, long-life operation. This unit suits demanding pick-and-place, packaging and general automation where space, durability and controllability matter. Its compact footprint and stainless-steel construction support scalable production with predictable maintenance. In addition, the 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke fit standard automation setups, reducing the need for custom components. Operators benefit from clear feedback potential thanks to the standard magnetic piston and robust material choices. With temperature range -10 to 80 °C and 1 to 10 bar operating pressure, it covers a wide set of industrial environments.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The Roundline RT/57232/JM/100 uses a compact 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke to fit tight machine footprints. This space-saving geometry reduces the actuator envelope, enabling more compact line layouts and simpler enclosure planning. In practice, engineers can retrofit or upgrade existing fixtures without major retooling, delivering faster installation, streamlined maintenance scheduling, and improved line throughput in small- to mid-size automation cells such as pick-and-place robots and packaging feeders. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The standard magnetic piston supports integrated sensing and feedback with minimal wiring, enabling straightforward use with PLCs and automation sensors. This promotes consistent positional data and easier diagnostics, reducing downtime and maintenance overhead. In motion-control-dense applications, it translates to tighter process control and higher repeatability across multiple stations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The barrel is stainless steel (austenitic) and the piston rod stainless steel (martensitic), delivering excellent corrosion resistance and wear performance. This robust construction extends service life in humid or coolant-rich environments and during frequent cycling, lowering replacement costs and downtime in uptime-critical manufacturing lines. The seal life is enhanced by high-strength end caps and a double crimped design that resists end-cap relaxation. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Buffer cushioning reduces end-stroke impact, minimizes shock and vibration, and protects adjacent components and seals. This results in smoother operation during high-speed cycles and longer seal life in packaging and handling applications. The design also supports reliable actuation in compact spaces where misalignment risks are higher. Feature → Business Impact → Application: An Rc1/8 port and an operating range of -10 to 80 °C and 1 to 10 bar make the RT/57232/JM/100 compatible with standard plant air systems and a broad set of industrial environments. Easy integration with existing valves and logic modules lowers installation time and risk, while the Roundline family geometry helps standardize maintenance practices across machines.

FAQs
To install the RT/57232/JM/100, mount the cylinder using standard ISO/VDMA-compatible brackets on a rigid frame. Connect the Rc1/8 air line to the port and ensure clean, dry compressed air within 1–10 bar. Verify end-cap alignment, then test the stroke with a safe load. The stainless steel barrel and end-cap design support quick field adjustments and repeatable performance.
Theoretical force is 482 N at the bore and stroke when operated within 1–10 bar. It is a double-acting cylinder with buffer cushioning and operates across -10 to 80 °C, ported via Rc1/8. Speed is workload- and supply-dependent, but the design aims for consistent, repeatable motion in typical automation tasks.
Yes. The 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke provide compact, precise strokes ideal for pick-and-place and packaging applications. The magnetic piston enables sensing for reliable feedback, and buffer cushioning reduces shock at end-of-stroke, supporting high-cycle performance and smoother operation in constrained spaces.
The provided data does not list CE, IP, or SIL certifications. For regulated environments, confirm with Norgren or your distributor and request the conformity declarations or certification documents specific to your configuration and region.
The combination of a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod with buffer cushioning reduces wear and downtime, lowering maintenance costs. Space-saving Roundline geometry also shortens installation time and simplifies part stocking, contributing to faster return on investment in high-cycle production lines.
