IMI Norgren RT/57240/M/80 Cylinder - Roundline 40mm

Roundline’s compact design reduces overall machine length by about 20% compared with a standard ISO cylinder, enabling tighter mounting and denser automation cells. This translates to higher line throughput, easier changeovers, and lower capital cost per axis on packaging, assembly, and material-handling lines. The space-saving geometry also simplifies enclosure and field wiring, making retrofits quicker and less disruptive. With a 40 mm bore and 80 mm stroke, the RT/57240/M/80 delivers up to 754 N of theoretical force at rated pressures, while operating from 1 to 10 bar. The 20% space savings do not compromise stroke or response time, supporting fast, repeatable cycles in high-demand environments. Operators benefit from consistent actuation and reduced variance in end-of-stroke positioning. A standard magnetic piston enables full-sensing compatibility with minimal wiring, simplifying control system integration and improving positional reliability. This feature reduces system integration time for PLCs, sensors, and safe-stop interlocks across end-of-arm tooling and clamping applications. The magnetic option also enables easier retrofitting to existing lines with proximity sensors. Stainless steel barrel and piston rod provide robust corrosion resistance and longevity in challenging environments, including washdown or outdoor installations. The long-life seals and low-friction design contribute to lower maintenance costs and higher uptime on continuous-duty lines. The combination supports compliant operation in harsh industrial settings while maintaining precision. Buffer cushioning delivers controlled deceleration at the end of stroke, minimizing impact on tooling and workpieces. This improves cycle life for delicate components and reduces vibration transmission through automation assemblies in sorting and packaging lines. Cushioning also helps maintain repeatable positioning across varying loads and speeds. With Rc1/8 port size and multiple mounting options (nose nut, foot, and universal rod mounts), installation is straightforward, reducing retrofits and integration time. The RT/57240/M/80 is part of the Roundline family, offering a ready-made solution for compact pneumatic actuation with predictable performance. The design supports plug-and-play compatibility with standard Pneufit C fittings and generic air lines.
