About the Airtac B06-SC Battery-Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SC40X400S
The B06-SC40X400S is an AirTAC double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SC40X400S, making it ideal for cell stacking and module handling tasks.
This specific configuration features a 400 mm stroke and a built-in magnet for position sensing. It uses a 16 mm piston rod, a PT1/4 port, and has a body length A of 142 mm, yielding an approximate extended length of 542 mm.

Where the Airtac B06-SC Battery-Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SC40X400S Is Used
Cell Stacking Assembly
Provides the precise 628 N push force and 400 mm travel needed to align and stack prismatic battery cells into modules.
Tab Welding Feed
Uses the built-in magnet to confirm rod position for feeding battery tabs into laser welding stations.
Module Handling
Extends 400 mm to push battery modules onto transfer conveyors during pack assembly line transitions.
Is the Airtac B06-SC Battery-Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SC40X400S the Right Cylinder?
This 40 mm bore generates 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa. If your battery line needs less force, step down to the 32 mm bore (402 N push); for heavier pack manipulation, step up to the 50 mm bore (982 N push). Because the stroke is 400 mm, the unsupported 16 mm rod is susceptible to bending under side loads—use an external guide rail or a guided cylinder to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
When sourcing a replacement, match these five attributes exactly: 40 mm bore, 400 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the built-in magnet (-S). This unit is a genuine AirTAC component built for rigorous automated assembly.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
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 Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B06-SC Battery-Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SC40X400S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SC40X400S, offering the same 628 N force, 400 mm stroke, and built-in magnet, but is designated for battery production lines.
No. The adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston at stroke end to soften impact; it does not lock the rod. If your application must hold a vertical battery module load without live pressure, you must use an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve.
