About the Airtac B06-MI Battery Dedicated Cylinder B06-MI20X20SCA
Delivering 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC B06-MI20X20SCA is a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder built for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-industry dedicated variant of the MI20X20SCA, meaning it is mechanically identical to the base model but curated for cell stacking and module handling tasks. Its 20 mm bore accepts a 1/8" port and features a compact, riveted construction with a stainless barrel and rod to resist mild corrosion in damp washdown environments.
Because it yields roughly 94 N of safe working load at 0.5 MPa, you can expect it to lift about 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. This SKU includes a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches, and uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end without adjustable cushioning. The CA rear pivot cover provides a clevis mount ideal for articulating battery-handling arms.

Where the Airtac B06-MI Battery Dedicated Cylinder B06-MI20X20SCA Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Pushes lithium prismatic cells into precise alignment within module trays using a compact 20 mm stroke.
Tab Welding Clamp
Holds battery tabs firmly under 157 N of force at 0.5 MPa for automated laser welding operations.
Module Diverting
Extends a 20 mm stroke to index battery packs accurately across conveyor belts on the assembly line.
Is the Airtac B06-MI Battery Dedicated Cylinder B06-MI20X20SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 20 mm bore actuator, compare it against its neighbors: the smaller Ø16 generates 100.5 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the larger Ø25 provides 245.3 N. Choose this 20 mm option when you need to move roughly 8 kg of battery modules vertically or apply 94 N of working force. The 20 mm stroke keeps the retracted length highly compact for tight assembly fixtures. If your battery line requires position holding during a compressed air loss, note that this cylinder will drift and the bumpers only soften the end of travel, so you must add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The ISO 6432 mounting interface on this Ø20 bore drops directly into standard mini-cylinder brackets and clevises.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/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/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B06-MI Battery Dedicated Cylinder B06-MI20X20SCA FAQ
This 20 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 157 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the MI20X20SCA, sharing identical physical specs. It uses fixed TPU bumper pads to soften stroke ends, but it will drift and cannot hold a vertical load if air pressure is lost; you must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure holding.
