Quick Summary

Roundline single acting cylinder RT/57325/MC/25 is a compact pneumatic actuator designed for precise actuation in tight spaces across automation cells and assembly lines. Engineers often struggle to fit standard cylinders into confined layouts, risking misalignment, slower cycles, and increased maintenance. This model prioritizes durability and control with a magnetic piston, a stainless steel barrel and rod, and a 25 mm stroke that fits many compact-payload tasks. Note: Certifications such as CE, IP ratings or SIL are not listed in this data; verify regulatory compliance with your project requirements. By combining space savings with robust seals and an easy-to-integrate porting scheme, it delivers reliable performance and reduces downtime in industrial automation pipelines, supporting improved throughput and lower total cost of ownership.

The Roundline RT/57325/MC/25 is designed to maximize space efficiency without compromising actuation performance. Its 25 mm diameter and 25 mm stroke deliver a compact footprint that enables 20% space saving over the basic length of a comparable ISO/VDMA cylinder, making it ideal for crowded control panels, tight machine frames, and miniature automation cells. This translates into shorter machine footprints and easier routing of pneumatic lines, reducing installation complexity and enabling faster line upgrades. The cylinder leverages low-friction, long-life seals to minimize wear, which directly lowers maintenance frequency and spare parts consumption in high-cycle environments like packaging, sorting, and inline assembly. Its buffer cushioning reduces impact forces at end-of-stroke, protecting delicate tooling and improving repeatability in high-precision pick-and-place tasks. A double-crimped end cap design enhances overall rigidity and leak resistance for reliable operation in demanding factories. The magnetic piston supports straightforward integration with sensors and control systems, facilitating position feedback and smarter diagnostics without added hardware complexity. Internally, the barrel is stainless steel (austenitic) and the piston rod stainless steel (martensitic), delivering corrosion resistance and consistent dimensional stability in challenging environments. The combination of RC1/8 porting, standard mounting patterns, and Roundline compatibility simplifies retrofits and future upgrades, helping maintainers standardize across fleets. With operating temperature from -10 to 80 °C and operating pressure from 2 to 10 bar, the RT/57325/MC/25 is built for reliability in workshop floors, labs, and production lines where moisture, dust, and vibration are common. Cushioning is specified as buffer type to temper dynamic loads, extending life for actuations that involve repetitive impacts or high-velocity cycling.

FAQs

The RT/57325/MC/25 Roundline cylinder uses Rc1/8 porting, enabling compatibility with standard pneumatic fittings and manifolds. This simplifies integration into compact automation circuits, while maintaining reliable seals. When assembling, ensure appropriate thread sealing and verify compatibility with your valve block and fittings to prevent leaks and maintain consistent actuation.
Yes, RT/57325/MC/25 is a single acting cylinder. It uses pneumatic pressure on one side to generate motion, while the other side returns via an internal or external mechanism (often a spring or designed return path). This configuration is well-suited for fast, simple actuation in compact spaces and reduces complexity in control schemes.
The cylinder features a 25 mm diameter and a 25 mm stroke. It provides a theoretical force of 217 N, optimized for light-to-medium payload actuation. The combination of a compact form factor and adequate force makes it suitable for small clamping, pick-and-place, and positioning tasks in limited-space equipment.
Operating temperature ranges from -10 to 80 °C and operating pressure from 2 to 10 bar. The barrel is stainless steel (austenitic) and the piston rod is stainless steel (martensitic), offering corrosion resistance and structural stability—beneficial for dusty, humid, or wash-down-friendly environments commonly found in manufacturing and packaging lines.
To maximize uptime, ensure Rc1/8 port fittings are properly sealed and matched to your valves, use compatible mounting patterns, and avoid harsh shock loads at end-of-stroke. The product’s buffer cushioning helps reduce impact forces, while the magnetic piston enables straightforward sensor integration for condition monitoring. Regular inspection of seals and end caps, along with clean, dry compressed air, will extend service life in demanding environments.
