Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X175S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X175S 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, 175mm stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X175S
The B06-SCD32X175S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SCD32X175S. Because the piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers, yielding an equal push and pull force of 483 N at 0.7 MPa. This symmetric thrust is essential for battery cell stacking and tabbing operations where consistent pressure is needed in both directions.
This 32 mm bore unit travels a 175 mm stroke and features a built-in magnetic ring for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor tracking along the barrel. It uses a 12 mm diameter rod on both ends, PT1/8 ports, and 21 mm adjustable cushions to decelerate the piston near the end caps. The double-rod design also improves rod guidance and provides anti-rotation benefits for precision handling tasks.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X175S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X175S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø12 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 175 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-SCD32X175S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides equal 483 N push and pull force for pressing and retracting battery cells during module stacking, ensuring consistent layer compression without rotation.
Dual-Sided Shuttle Transfer
Uses the through-rod design to mount tooling on both ends, actuating a shuttle mechanism for moving battery tabs or separators in automated lines.
Stroke End Detection
The built-in magnet allows CMSG reed sensors to track the exact position of the 175 mm stroke for precise handling and sorting feedback.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X175S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32 mm bore double-rod cylinder when your battery assembly line requires equal 483 N thrust in both directions along with a rear rod for mounting secondary tooling or a stopper. If your application involves heavy side loads on the 175 mm stroke, a dedicated guided cylinder is recommended instead, as the through rod improves guidance but cannot substitute for a true linear guide. If bidirectional force is unnecessary, a standard single-rod AirTAC SC32X175S offers a simpler, lighter solution.
When replacing this unit, ensure a 5-point match: 32 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting (or an SCD-compatible FA/LB/TC accessory), and the -S magnet option. Note that the adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; if the battery handling fixture must hold a load without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is required to prevent drift.
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-SCD32X175S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard AirTAC SCD32X175S. It is mechanically identical to the base model, featuring the same 32 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, 483 N force, and built-in magnet, with no changes to physical dimensions or specifications.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical push and pull force (483 N at 0.7 MPa here) because the rod area is subtracted from both sides. It also offers better anti-rotation characteristics and allows you to mount tooling or a sensor flag on the rear rod, which is ideal for battery line synchronization.
