Feature: 32 mm bore and 50 mm stroke provide a compact footprint without sacrificing stroke length. The business impact is a smaller actuator envelope that fits tight installations, improving machine density and reducing enclosure size and wiring complexity. Ideal for applications like robotic pick-and-place and small-transfer duties where travel is limited but force is required. Feature: Theoretical force of 482 N across its operating range. The business impact is reliable actuation at 1–10 bar, enabling consistent performance and improved process stability. This supports fixtures, clamps, and transfer tasks in compact automation cells. Feature: Buffer cushioning minimizes deceleration impact. The business impact is reduced shock loads and longer seal life, leading to lower maintenance costs in high-speed or precision applications. Use cases include fast pick-and-place and delicate positioning tasks. Feature: Magnetic piston enables straightforward sensing. The business impact is easier control integration and feedback, reducing wiring and sensor mounting complexity. This benefits PLC-based loops and safety interlocks in industrial automation lines. Feature: Stainless steel barrel and piston rod offer corrosion resistance. The business impact is improved durability in wash-down and harsh environments, lowering downtime and maintenance fees. Suitable for food/packaging and pharma lines where cleanliness matters. Feature: Rc1/8 port size and wide operating range. The business impact is easier installation, simplified plumbing, and compatibility with diverse air supply conditions. Ideal for new installations and retrofits across varied machine platforms.

FAQs
The RT/57232/JM/50 uses a Rc1/8 port and a 32 mm bore with a 50 mm stroke, allowing straightforward installation in compact automation cells. This configuration supports common mounting styles and sensor integration with a magnetic piston, reducing the need for additional hardware. For retrofits, ensure mounting feet and standard ISO similarity are matched to your frame to minimize downtime.
The cylinder provides a theoretical 482 N of force at typical operating conditions, derived from a 32 mm bore and standard air supply pressures. With the 1–10 bar operating range, you can expect reliable performance for clamping, positioning, and transfer tasks. Always consult the datasheet to confirm exact force at your specific pressure and temperature.
Yes, the unit features a stainless steel barrel (austenitic) and stainless steel piston rod (martensitic), which enhances corrosion resistance. This design makes it better suited for wash-down environments or installations where exposure to moisture and contaminants is common. Confirm your specific IP rating in the datasheet and select appropriate seals for your environment.
The cylinder ships with a standard magnetic piston, enabling straightforward sensing with common proximity switches and sensors. This simplifies control integration and improves reliability by reducing wiring complexity. When wiring for safety interlocks or PLC feedback, reference the datasheet for recommended sensor placements and tolerances.
Low-friction, long-life seals combined with buffer cushioning reduce wear and shock loads, extending seal life and minimizing downtime in fast cycles. Stainless steel components further support durability in harsh environments, lowering maintenance frequency. For best ROI, implement scheduled inspections aligned with your production cycle and verify compatibility with your control system via the datasheet.
