This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the ACP series. You can still order this code here: we ship the current replacement ACED32X200B, the same code under the new prefix. The ACE replacement is a current-production ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class, with a matching short body and the same mounting-accessory family, so it fits the same envelope. Confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before ordering.

The AirTAC ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD32X200B is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 200mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED32X200B (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.
Double acting with a rod leaving both covers, the ACPD32X200B is a DIN-standard compact cylinder in the 32 mm bore class. Because each stroke works on the rod-side area, output is identical in both directions: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The 200 mm stroke sits right at the maximum standard stroke for this bore, and the male rod thread (B code) bolts straight to external tooling.
The hard-anodized aluminium body is an ISO 21287 short build, saving about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it slots into tight gantries and guarding. The through-rod resists rotation and side load and gives a symmetric mount, and the rear rod can carry a sensor flag. Fixed TPU bumpers sit at both ends, speed runs 30-500 mm/s, and pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Note: this model is discontinued - the current-production direct is the ACED32X200, so confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions before swapping. Also, without the optional -S magnet no CMSE or DMSE switch can be fitted.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED32X200B (ISO 21287) carries the same bore/stroke/force class; confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before installation. Rod type: female thread (blank) or male thread (B). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
| 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).
| ACPD | DIN compact cylinder (double-rod, discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×200 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing (omit for no magnet). |
| B | Rod type: B = male thread; blank = female thread. |
Replacement mapping (swap P for E): ACP→ACE, ASP→ASE, ATP→ATE, ACPD→ACED, ACPJ→ACEJ. ACP-family: ACP (double acting), ASP / ATP (single acting push / pull), ACPD (double rod), ACPJ (double rod, adjustable stroke).
The through-rod drives a carriage from either cover with equal 345.6 N thrust both ways across the full 200 mm travel, keeping the motion symmetric on a pick-and-place beam.
On a CNC jig, the back-end rod carries a flag past a switch position to confirm clamp state, while the front rod delivers about 207 N of usable clamping force at 0.5 MPa.
A male-threaded pusher pad on the front rod deflects cartons off a line, and the rear rod doubles as a guide or position reference over the 200 mm stroke.
At 345.6 N per direction, bore 32 suits clamping and transfer jobs in the 20-30 kg range; step down to bore 25 (206.2 N) for lighter pick-and-place or up to bore 40 (571.8 N) when the load grows. The 200 mm stroke is the maximum standard for this bore, so longer travels become made-to-order. Remember the piston drifts if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check where a load must stay put. FA/FB flange and LB foot mountings bolt to the ISO 21287 face, and the male rod thread (B) takes standard rod knuckles. Order the -S code if you need the magnet for CMSE / DMSE switches; this bare code has none. For new builds, specify the ACED32X200 instead - this ACPD is discontinued.
Replacement checklist
Yes - the double-rod design means both strokes use the rod-side area, so output is equal either 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 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof, speed 30-500 mm/s, and the fixed TPU bumpers decelerate at each end. As a rule of thumb, count on about 207 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, roughly a 21 kg vertical lift.
The ACPD family is no longer in production. The current direct is the ACED32X200 (swap the P for an E), which matches the same 32 mm bore, 200 mm stroke and force class in the ISO 21287 short body - confirm the mounting dimensions before swapping, since the ACP is DIN-standard. On the ACPD itself, the magnet was never fitted unless you ordered the optional -S code; this bare B-suffix unit has no magnet, so no CMSE or DMSE switch can be mounted on it.
