Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X30S
The AirTAC Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X30S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 30mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body.

About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X30S
A double acting compact cylinder built to ISO 21287, the ACED32X30S pushes a 32 mm bore through a 30 mm stroke with a rod leaving BOTH covers, so thrust is identical on each stroke - 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa in either direction. The hard-anodized aluminium body pairs with an S45C hard-chrome-plated rod, and the short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, letting it slot into tight jigs and guarding. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed range 30-500 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C.
Because the through-rod resists rotation and light side load, it suits symmetric tooling: the rear rod can carry a sensor flag or a counter-grip while the front rod does the work. This -S version carries the optional magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed and solid-state switches mount directly on the body slots. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock. Plan on roughly 207 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to lifting about 17 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACE-series (ISO 21287) datasheet. Body: hard-anodized aluminium alloy; piston rod: S45C carbon steel with hard-chrome plating. Rod type: female thread (blank) or male thread (B). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. A built-in magnet is OPTIONAL — add the -S code to fit CMSE / DMSE position sensors.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).

Where the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X30S Is Used
Symmetric clamp fixture
The through-rod grips a machined aluminium housing from both sides in a CNC fixture, delivering 345.6 N per jaw at 0.5 MPa with no rotation of the workpiece.
Pusher on a packaging line
A 30 mm stroke slides cartons sideways off a conveyor into a lane divider; the 1/8" port keeps plumbing compact and the fitted magnet feeds a CMSE switch for end-of-stroke confirmation.
Twin-grip pick station
Front rod holds the part while the rear rod carries a DMSE-flagged sensor bracket, letting a robot cell verify position on both ends at 30-500 mm/s.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X30S the Right Cylinder?
At 345.6 N per direction this bore sits between the 25 mm size (206.2 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 40 mm size (571.8 N at 0.5 MPa), so pick 32 mm when a mid-range symmetric push is needed. Remember it drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. FA/FB flanges, LB feet and FTC brackets bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and I/Y rod knuckles suit the 12 mm rod. The fitted -S magnet means CMSE / DMSE switches work out of the box; port thread is 1/8" PT and the female rod thread is M8x1.25.
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 ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X30S FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so force is equal each way: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, ideal for cramped gantries. This -S model carries the optional magnet, so CMSE / DMSE switches mount on the body slots. Fixed TPU bumpers at both ends soften end-of-stroke impact; they do not hold or brake a load.
