About the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X15S
This AirTAC ACE50X15S is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder, pushing 981.7 N and pulling 881.2 N at 0.5 MPa. Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, fitting into tight automation frames where a full-length unit will not.
With the optional -S magnet already fitted, you can mount CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches for reliable position sensing. For a safe working load, plan for about 589 N of real work at 0.5 MPa; this translates to lifting roughly 60 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, making it a strong choice for pick-and-place gantries.

Where the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X15S Is Used
Pick-and-Place Gantry
Use the ACE50X15S on a gantry Z-axis to lift and place 60 kg components in a CNC machine loading station, with the -S magnet triggering a CMSE switch at full extension.
Carton Tamping
Mount this cylinder on a packaging line to tamp down flaps on a 50 kg carton before sealing, using the short stroke to fit between conveyor rails and the compact body to save space.
Pallet Stops
Deploy the ACE50X15S as a pallet stop on a gravity conveyor, extending a 16 mm rod to block a pallet, with the optional magnet providing a signal to the PLC for release timing.
Is the Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X15S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty, the ACE40X15 offers 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the ACE63X15 gives you 1558.6 N push for heavier parts. Since the ACE50X15S has a 1/8" port, ensure your air supply and fittings match this size. The fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact, but it does not hold a load; if you need position holding, add a rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short stroke fits the compact body
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S if you need the magnet for sensors
- ✓ Rod type (female / male B) & mount (FA/LB/CA)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Compact body: keep the stroke short and avoid side load on the rod.
- check Do not dismantle the threaded front/back covers.
- check Keep speed within the rated range; the TPU bumper absorbs stroke-end energy.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACE Compact Cylinder ACE50X15S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, it pushes 981.7 N and pulls 881.2 N. At 0.7 MPa, it pushes 1374.4 N and pulls 1233.7 N. The theoretical maximum force is 200.2 kgf at 1.0 MPa, with a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
The ACE50X15S has a hard-anodized aluminium body that is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, saving space in tight jigs. It includes a fixed TPU bumper at both ends for impact absorption, and the -S magnet allows CMSE or DMSE switches for position sensing.
