Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X75
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X75 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, 75mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X75
The B06-SCD40X75 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD40X75. Mechanically identical to its base model, it features a 40 mm bore and 75 mm stroke. Because the Ø16 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers, yielding an equal push and pull force of 528 N at 0.5 MPa and 950 N at 0.9 MPa.
This symmetric thrust is highly advantageous on battery cell assembly lines, where reversing movements must remain smooth and balanced. The cylinder body length A(SCD) is 191 mm, and it incorporates adjustable cushions with a 21 mm length to decelerate the piston at stroke ends. It operates on filtered air between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa, with a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X75 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X75 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø40 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø16 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 75 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-SCD40X75 Is Used
Cell Transfer Shuttling
Drives a symmetric shuttle mechanism for moving battery cells between welding stations, utilizing the equal push and pull force to maintain consistent cycle times.
Dual-Side Tabbing Actuation
Employs the through-rod design to actuate tabbing presses from both ends simultaneously, ensuring parallel contact on battery terminals without rotational drift.
Module Stacking Stops
Uses the rear rod protrusion as a hard stop and sensor flag for battery module stacking alignment, keeping the bearing load symmetric to extend seal life.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X75 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 40 mm bore when your battery handling fixture requires exactly 739 N of thrust both ways at 0.7 MPa. If your module stacking mechanism needs less force, step down to the 32 mm bore which provides 483 N at 0.7 MPa. If the application involves heavy side loads from a multi-tool end effector, a standard SCD double-rod cylinder provides better guidance than a single-rod SC type but is still not a substitute for a fully guided linear slide.
For direct replacement, match the 40 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and confirm whether a magnetic piston (-S) was originally present. Note that air pressure does not lock the piston; if the battery cell being transferred must stay fixed during an emergency exhaust, 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-SCD40X75 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD40X75, offering the same 40 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, and 950 N thrust at 0.9 MPa, simply designated for battery industry applications.
A double-rod cylinder provides equal push and pull force because the rod area is subtracted from both sides. For the 40 mm bore, this means 528 N of force in both directions at 0.5 MPa. It also offers better anti-rotation characteristics and allows tooling or sensors to be mounted on the rear rod.
