Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X200S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X200S is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø16mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø40mm bore, 200mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X200S
The B06-SCD40X200S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod pneumatic cylinder engineered for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-dedicated variant of the standard SCD40X200S, meaning it is mechanically identical to the base model but tailored for cell, module, and pack assembly applications. 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 739 N at 0.7 MPa.
This 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke unit features a 16 mm diameter rod protruding from both ends and includes a built-in magnet (the S suffix) for mounting CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors along the 191 mm body length A(SCD). The symmetric through-rod design provides enhanced rod guidance and anti-rotation characteristics, making it well-suited for non-rotating pushers and dual-tooling tasks on stacking or tabbing equipment.

| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X200S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø40 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø16 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 200 mm |
| Rod configuration | Double rod — rod through both caps |
| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | PT1/4 |
| Rod thread | M12×1.25 |
| 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 1200 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 (Ø40mm, double rod)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 528 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 739 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 108 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-SCD40X200S Is Used
Cell Stacking Pusher
Applies equal 739 N bidirectional force to align and stack battery cells, using the through-rod design to prevent rotation during precise electrode positioning.
Module Shuttle Transfer
Drives a dual-sided shuttle table for moving battery modules between assembly stations, leveraging identical push and pull speeds for consistent cycle times.
Tab Welding Positioner
Utilizes the built-in magnet with barrel sensors to confirm end-of-stroke positioning for tab welding, while the rear rod operates a mechanical stopper.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X200S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 40 mm bore double-rod cylinder when your battery handling fixture requires equal thrust in both directions (739 N at 0.7 MPa) and a rear rod for mounting a stopper or sensor flag. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore provides 483 N at 0.7 MPa. If you need higher clamping force for heavy pack handling, consider stepping up to a 50 mm bore, which outputs 1154 N at 0.7 MPa. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if you only need one-sided actuation and want to save space, while a guided cylinder is recommended if the mechanism experiences significant lateral loads.
When replacing this unit, ensure a 5-point match: 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic SCD mounting, and the built-in magnet (-S). For a 200 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length is moderate, but always verify that external guides support the load to prevent rod bending under dynamic shifts. Note that the adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston at stroke ends; they do not lock or hold the load. If the battery cell or fixture must remain suspended 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-SCD40X200S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD40X200S. It is mechanically identical to the base model, featuring the same 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, and built-in magnet, but is designated for use in battery cell, module, and pack production lines.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical push and pull force (739 N at 0.7 MPa for this bore) because the rod area is subtracted from both sides. The through-rod offers better anti-rotation resistance and provides a rear extension for mounting secondary tooling, stoppers, or sensor flags, which is often needed in battery assembly automation.
