About the Airtac B06-SC Battery-Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SC50X400
The B06-SC50X400 is an AirTAC double-acting tie-rod pneumatic cylinder specifically designated for battery manufacturing lines, such as cell stacking and module handling. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-dedicated variant; mechanically, it is identical to the standard SC50X400, delivering a push force of 982 N at 0.5 MPa and 1374 N at 0.7 MPa.
Featuring a 400 mm stroke and a 20 mm piston rod, this unit provides a total extended length of approximately 550 mm (150 mm body length A plus the stroke). It uses a PT1/4 port and includes 21 mm adjustable cushions to decelerate the piston at stroke ends, ensuring smooth operation during rapid assembly cycles.

Where the Airtac B06-SC Battery-Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SC50X400 Is Used
Cell Stacking Assembly
Drives the precise stacking mechanisms in prismatic cell production, utilizing its 400 mm stroke to index battery materials accurately.
Module Handling
Pushes and positions battery modules along assembly conveyors, leveraging 1374 N of thrust at 0.7 MPa to move heavy packs smoothly.
Tab Welding Indexing
Actuates tooling carriers to present battery tabs to welding heads, relying on adjustable cushions to prevent end-of-stroke impact damage.
Is the Airtac B06-SC Battery-Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SC50X400 the Right Cylinder?
This 50 mm bore generates 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If your battery handling fixture requires less force, stepping down to a 40 mm bore yields 628 N, while moving up to a 63 mm bore provides 1559 N for heavier pack manipulation. Because this model has a 400 mm stroke, the unsupported 20 mm rod is susceptible to bending under side loads; using an external guide rail or a dedicated guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
When sourcing a replacement, verify five points: the 50 mm bore, the 400 mm stroke, the PT1/4 port thread, the basic mounting style (no bracket), and the absence of a built-in magnet. Confirm from datasheet if specific battery-environment seals are required for your exact cell assembly chemistry.
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-SC50X400 FAQ
The B06- prefix designates this as a cylinder dedicated to battery-manufacturing lines. It is mechanically identical to the standard SC50X400, offering the same 50 mm bore, 400 mm stroke, and 1374 N push force at 0.7 MPa, with no changes to physical dimensions or specifications.
No, the SC cylinder does not hold position or lock when air pressure is lost or exhausted. The adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end. To hold a vertical load safely, an external mechanical lock, rod brake, or pilot-operated check valve is required.
