Norgren RT/57240/MF/320 Roundline cylinder - Magnetic

Space efficiency is a core advantage of the RT/57240/MF/320 Roundline cylinder, delivering a 40 mm bore and a 320 mm stroke that reduce machine length by up to about 20% versus ISO/VDMA cylinders. This compact geometry is especially valuable in tight automation cells, packaging lines, and assembly stations where every centimeter matters. The design also supports easier retrofits into legacy systems thanks to standard mounting and porting options. Magnetic pistons enable straightforward feedback, allowing sensor wiring to be minimized while preserving precise position control. Combining with standard Rc1/8 porting, it aligns with common pneumatic manifolds and control valves, reducing integration time. Customers gain faster commissioning, improved repeatability, and simpler diagnostics when the piston magnets pair with existing sensors. Buffer cushioning mitigates impact loads at end-of-stroke, protecting components and reducing vibration during high-speed cycles. The result is longer seal life, lower maintenance costs, and fewer unplanned downtime incidents. In line applications, this translates to more consistent cycle timing and predictable throughput under varying loads. Stainless steel barrels and piston rods offer corrosion resistance in demanding environments; the data specifies austenitic barrels and martensitic rods, supporting washdown and elevated cleanliness requirements. This construction enhances durability in industries such as food and beverage, pharma, and chemical processing, where routine exposure to humidity and cleaning agents is common. The Roundline family also benefits from a robust end-cap design that withstands routine shop-floor handling. Compatibility and installation are streamlined by a standard port size Rc1/8, magnetic feedback, and a standard mounting footprint, enabling quick swaps from older devices without extensive rework. The cylinder operates across a wide temperature range (-10 to 80 °C) and pressure spectrum (1 to 10 bar), ensuring reliable performance across varied geographic and process conditions. Together, these features support lower total cost of ownership and higher equipment availability.
