If you are unable to find the option you require please call: (937) 833-4033. Each bore size of the IMI Norgren magnetically coupled rodless guided cylinder has specific load carrying capabilities. These capabilities can be enhanced by ordering external shock absorbers. Shock absorbers will also increase cylinder life when used properly. Use the following procedures to determine the requirements for specific applications. NOTE: Exceeding the load can cause the carriage and piston to decouple. 1. Check side load or radial load requirements. Graph A, Side Load/Radial Load vs. Stroke Length, shows the maximum load the cylinder will support for a specific bore size and stroke length. 2. Check axial load requirements. Graph B, Axial Load vs. Moment Arm, shows the maximum load the cylinder will support for a specific bore size and stroke length. Use the illustrations and formulas beside the graph to determine the load on the magnetically coupled rodless guided cylinder. 3. External Shock Absorbers. If your load requirements fall above the curve for the specific bore size, external shock absorbers may allow you to decelerate the load. Choose from Graphs M through DD — Velocity versus Load for shock absorbers. 4. Maximum Velocity. If cylinder speed will exceed 20 in/sec or cycle rate will exceed 15 per minute, special application considerations may be required. Please consult your local distributor.
