About the Airtac B06-MI Battery Dedicated Cylinder B06-MI32X450CM
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the B06-MI32X450CM is a 32 mm bore, double-acting round-body mini cylinder engineered for battery-manufacturing lines. The leading "B06-" prefix designates this as AirTAC's battery-industry dedicated variant of the base MI32X450CM. It is mechanically identical to the standard model, featuring a stainless-steel barrel and rod that resist mild corrosion and washdown fluids common in cell and pack assembly environments. The 450 mm stroke operates within the 500 mm maximum limit for this bore, utilizing a 1/4" air port and a male M10x1.25 rod thread.
Because the internal piston lacks a magnet, this specific SKU cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches without upgrading to the -S variant. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at both stroke ends, decelerating the motion without offering adjustable cushioning. For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of roughly 241 N (about 60 percent of the 0.5 MPa rating), which translates to lifting a 20.5 kg component vertically when applying a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac B06-MI Battery Dedicated Cylinder B06-MI32X450CM Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Drives the precise 450 mm separation and stacking movements of lithium-ion prismatic cells, utilizing the 402.2 N push force to press layers firmly without damaging delicate separators.
Module Tab Handling
Indexes battery modules along an assembly conveyor, using the 1/4" port for rapid actuation to position packs for automated ultrasonic welding of busbar tabs.
Pack Transfer Unit
Shifts completed battery packs between packaging stations, where the stainless-steel construction withstands occasional coolant leaks and routine washdowns in the production cell.
Is the Airtac B06-MI Battery Dedicated Cylinder B06-MI32X450CM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32 mm bore actuator, evaluate the neighboring options to ensure optimal performance. Dropping down to a 25 mm bore reduces the push force to 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to a 40 mm bore increases it substantially to 628.3 N. The CM round end back cover provides specific rear-port and mounting orientation characteristics for compact machinery integration. If your battery-stacking fixture requires position feedback, you must select the -S magnet version to enable sensor mounting.
At a 450 mm stroke, the Ø12 mm piston rod extends significantly, making side-load alignment critical to prevent premature rod bending and seal wear. Furthermore, this standard double-acting cylinder relies entirely on air pressure to maintain its position; if air is lost or the directional valve is centered, the piston will drift. The TPU bumpers only soften the end-of-stroke impact and do not function as a locking brake. To hold a vertical load securely during an air loss event, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
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-MI32X450CM FAQ
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and a male M10x1.25 rod thread. The double-acting thrust is 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The B06- prefix indicates this is AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the MI32X450CM, sharing identical specifications and dimensions with the base model. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. It features a CM round end back cover and fixed TPU bumper pads rather than adjustable air cushions.
