Airtac B06-MFC Battery Special Air Cylinder B06-MFC32X550SCM
The AirTAC Airtac B06-MFC Battery Special Air Cylinder B06-MFC32X550SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 550mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel for mildly corrosive environments. For the same bore and stroke it is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving mounting space.

About the Airtac B06-MFC Battery Special Air Cylinder B06-MFC32X550SCM
The B06-MFC32X550SCM is AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the MFC32X550SCM. The "B06-" prefix marks it for cell, module, and pack assembly lines, while the mechanics remain identical to the base model. This is a double-acting, JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, built to shrug off the mild moisture and washdown common in battery plants.
At 0.5 MPa it delivers 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull, with a theoretical max of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The variable air cushion at both ends uses a needle to decelerate the piston near stroke end, so you can run high-speed indexing without slamming the load. For the same bore and stroke, this JIS body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, freeing up mounting length on tight transfer stations.

Where the Airtac B06-MFC Battery Special Air Cylinder B06-MFC32X550SCM Is Used
Cell Stacking
Positions prismatic cells in a stacking fixture with 402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa. The variable cushion absorbs the stop shock, keeping cell edges undamaged.
Module Transfer
Shuttles battery modules along a transfer rail. The 550 mm stroke covers long travel, while the needle-set cushion prevents load bounce at the end of each cycle.
Tabbing Press
Drives a tabbing die or clamp with 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The stainless barrel resists electrolyte mist, and the cushion softens the return stroke.
Is the Airtac B06-MFC Battery Special Air Cylinder B06-MFC32X550SCM the Right Cylinder?
For lighter pick-and-place on tabbing or stacking, step down to the MFC25 at 245.3 N push; for heavier module handling, the MFC40 at 628.3 N push gives more headroom. The 550 mm stroke is beyond the 500 mm standard, so this is a made-to-order build. The variable cushion is the key here - if you are cycling fast with a heavy battery tray, the needle-set deceleration protects both the load and the machine frame. Note that this cylinder does not hold position on air loss; the piston drifts, and the cushion only slows it near the end. For a held load, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position sensing, and the CM round-end back cover is already fitted.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B06-MFC Battery Special Air Cylinder B06-MFC32X550SCM FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push is 402.2 N and pull is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 563.0 N and pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 1/4" port and M10x1.25 rod thread match the standard 32 mm bore configuration.
The B06- prefix designates AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated line; mechanically it is identical to the MFC32X550SCM. The variable air cushion at both ends uses a needle valve to decelerate the piston near stroke end, reducing shock and noise at high speed. It is not a brake or lock - it only slows the piston. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to detect position.
