About the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X80S
The ACED32X80S is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder built to the ISO 21287 short-body format: a piston rod exits both covers, so the 32 mm bore delivers an identical 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa (483.8 N at 0.7 MPa) on every stroke, in either direction. The through-rod resists rotation and light side load, and its rear end doubles as a convenient mount for a sensor flag. The hard-anodized aluminium body with a hard-chrome-plated S45C rod runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and 30-500 mm/s.
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight guarding and fixture plates. This S-coded model carries the optional -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE reed or solid-state switches can be clipped onto the body for end-of-stroke signalling. A fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs stroke-end shock, and the female M8x1.25 rod thread on both ends accepts standard knuckles. As a rule of thumb, plan on roughly 207 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which is about 17 kg of vertical lift 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 ACED32X80S Is Used
Symmetric weld-fixture clamping
The through-rod lets the 345.6 N clamping force act from either side of a welding jig, so one cylinder replaces two single-rod units in a mirrored clamp station.
Bidirectional pusher on packaging lines
Equal force both ways at 30-500 mm/s makes the 80 mm stroke ideal for diverting cartons left or right on a conveyor, with CMSE switches confirming each end position.
Reciprocating test-slide drive
In a QC test rig, the rear rod carries a sensor flag while the front rod drives the slide, giving synchronized feedback without an external bracket.
Is the Airtac ACED Double-acting Compact Cylinder ACED32X80S the Right Cylinder?
At 345.6 N per direction, the 32 mm bore suits clamping and transfer tasks in the 20-30 kg range; step down to the 25 mm bore (206.2 N) for lighter gates or up to the 40 mm bore (571.8 N) when the load grows. The 80 mm stroke sits well inside the 200 mm standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order stroke is needed. Choose FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC mounting plus I/Y rod knuckles to match the fixture, and keep the S code if CMSE/DMSE position feedback is required. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put.
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 ACED32X80S FAQ
Yes - the double-rod design exposes the rod-side area on both strokes, so force is equal either way: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 1/8" port suits the 32 mm bore.
The ISO 21287 short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, freeing space in tight gantries and fixtures, while FA/FB flange, LB foot or FTC brackets bolt straight to the standard face. The S in this model code means the optional -S magnet is fitted, so CMSE or DMSE switches can be added for stroke-end detection; a fixed TPU bumper at each end absorbs end-of-stroke shock.
