Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X125S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X125S is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø20mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø50mm bore, 125mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X125S
The B06-SCD50X125S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder engineered for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-dedicated variant of the standard SCD50X125S, meaning it shares the exact same physical specifications while being tailored for cell, module, and pack assembly operations. 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 825 N at 0.5 MPa.
This 50 mm bore, 125 mm stroke model features a built-in magnet (the S suffix) allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to track piston position along the barrel. It uses a Ø20 mm rod on both ends, PT1/4 ports, and adjustable cushions with a 21 mm length. The double-rod design provides enhanced anti-rotation characteristics and symmetric bearing loading, which is critical for maintaining precision in stacking and tabbing processes. Note that the adjustable cushions decelerate the piston at stroke ends but do not lock the load; a mechanical lock is required if the assembly must hold position without live air pressure.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X125S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X125S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø50 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø20 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 125 mm |
| Rod configuration | Double rod — rod through both caps |
| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | PT1/4 |
| Rod thread | M16×1.5 |
| 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 (Ø50mm, double rod)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 825 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1155 N | 1155 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 168 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-SCD50X125S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides equal push and pull force for precisely pressing and aligning battery cells during automated stacking processes without rotational drift.
Module Transfer Shuttle
Drives dual-sided shuttle mechanisms in module assembly lines, using the rear rod extension to mount synchronized tooling or stopper plates.
Tab Welding Positioning
Uses the built-in magnet with solid-state sensors to confirm exact electrode positioning for battery tab welding, ensuring consistent contact.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X125S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application demands 825 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa. If your battery handling line requires less force, stepping down to a 40 mm bore provides 528 N each way, while a 63 mm bore offers 1402 N for heavier pack manipulation. A single-rod SC cylinder is a better fit if you only need unidirectional work and want a shorter overall body length, as the SCD body length A is 207 mm due to the through-rod design.
For strokes of 125 mm, side-load stress on the protruding rods is moderate, but external guides should still be used if the tooling carries significant off-center weight. To guarantee a direct replacement, verify five details: 50 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting (or an SCD-compatible accessory like F-SC50LB), and the presence of the -S magnetic piston.
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-SCD50X125S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this cylinder is part of AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated line. The B06-SCD50X125S is mechanically identical to the standard SCD50X125S, featuring the same 50 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, and 825 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical force (825 N at 0.5 MPa) and speed in both directions because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. It also offers better anti-rotation stability and allows tooling to be mounted on the rear rod, which is ideal for battery assembly shuttles and two-sided actuation.
