Norgren RT/57240/MF/100 Pneumatic Cylinder - 40 mm

Space efficiency is a core differentiator of the RT/57240/MF/100. The Roundline design delivers up to 20% space savings over the basic ISO/VDMA length, enabling tighter machine footprints and easier retrofit in existing lines. In practice, this means you can fit additional actuators or conveyors in the same enclosure, reducing total line height and enabling denser automation layouts. Low friction, long-life seals minimize wear and maintenance. The stainless steel barrel and piston rod resist corrosion, while specially engineered seals reduce friction across cycles, delivering longer service intervals and more consistent performance under varying supply pressure. This translates into lower spare-part costs and higher line uptime for critical processes. Double-acting operation with buffer cushioning delivers smooth acceleration and deceleration. The end-cap design supports a robust, double-ended actuation that reduces impact on connected equipment and tooling. In automation tasks like picking and placing or clamping, the result is reduced cycle-time variability and gentler product handling. The standard magnetic piston supports straightforward sensing and control integration. With magnetic actuation, you can use simple reed or proximity sensors to verify cylinder status without intrusive wiring, improving feedback quality for PLCs and industrial I/O networks. Compact, robust construction and a 1 to 10 bar operating pressure range make it compatible with common industrial air supplies. The Rc1/8 port size aligns with standard fittings, while the 40 mm bore and 100 mm stroke offer predictable performance for routine tasks in packaging, assembly, and automation lines.
