Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100S is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø12mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø32mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100S
The B06-SCD32X100S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder engineered for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-industry dedicated variant of the standard SCD32X100S, meaning it is mechanically identical to the base model while tailored for cell and pack assembly applications. The through-rod design yields identical thrust in both directions, providing 483 N of force at 0.5 MPa and reaching 621 N at 0.9 MPa.
Because the Ø12 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the unit provides superior rod guidance and anti-rotation characteristics compared to a single-rod cylinder. The S suffix adds a built-in magnet, allowing CMSG or DMSG sensors to track piston position along the 100 mm stroke. It features a 21 mm adjustable cushion at each end and a body length A(SCD) of 187 mm.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø12 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 100 mm |
| Rod configuration | Double rod — rod through both caps |
| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable, 21 mm |
| Max stroke | Up to 1000 mm |
Specifications follow the official AirTAC SCD (double-rod) datasheet. Because the rod runs through both caps, the effective area is (bore² − rod²) in both directions. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (standard) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm, double rod)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 kgf | |
Push and pull are EQUAL on a double-rod cylinder — both chambers lose the rod area, so effective area = (bore² − rod²) each way. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure; size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100S Is Used
Cell Stacking Transfer
Equal push and pull force makes this cylinder ideal for shuttling battery cell layers in stacking machines, ensuring consistent placement pressure from both sides.
Dual-Sided Tab Welding
The through-rod allows tooling to mount on both ends, simultaneously pressing and aligning battery tabs during ultrasonic welding operations.
Non-Rotating Actuation
Provides better resistance to torsion than a single rod, making it suitable for handling delicate battery modules where rod twist could damage components.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32 mm bore when a compact, symmetric 483 N force is needed for dual-tooling or non-rotating pushers on a battery assembly line. If your application requires less force, stepping down is not an option in the SCD range, but if you need substantially more thrust, consider the 40 mm bore which provides 528 N at 0.5 MPa. For tasks demanding pure linear precision under heavy side loads, a dedicated guided cylinder is superior to relying solely on the through-rod.
When replacing this unit, ensure the five critical parameters match exactly: 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the -S magnetic piston. Note that the adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke ends; they do not lock the load. If the assembly must hold position without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
Double-rod checklist
- ✓ Need equal force / speed both directions?
- ✓ Rear rod for tooling, stopper or sensor flag?
- ✓ Better rod guidance / anti-rotation?
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Keep BOTH rod ends clear of side load and interference.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use SCD mounting accessory (FA / LB / TC / TCM1).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD32X100S. It is mechanically identical to the standard model, with the same 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, and 483 N force at 0.5 MPa, but designated for battery production environments.
The double-rod design provides identical 483 N push and pull force at 0.5 MPa, better rod guidance, and anti-rotation benefits. It allows tooling to be mounted on both ends, which is essential for symmetric actuation tasks in automated battery assembly lines.
