Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X50
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X50 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. Ø63mm bore, 50mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X50
The B06-SCD63X50 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD63X50. Mechanically identical to the base model, it features a 63 mm bore and a 50 mm stroke. Because the Ø20 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers, yielding an equal push and pull force of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa (1962 N at 0.7 MPa). This symmetric thrust is essential for precision stacking and tabbing operations in cell assembly.
With a compact body length A(SCD) of 210 mm and adjustable cushions providing 28 mm of end-of-stroke deceleration, this unit handles rapid reversals smoothly. The through-rod design improves bearing load distribution and offers anti-rotation benefits compared to a single-rod actuator, which is highly advantageous for carrying dual tooling or mounting a rear sensor flag on battery production conveyors.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X50 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X50 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø63 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø20 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 50 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, 28 mm |
| Max stroke | Up to 1500 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 (Ø63mm, double rod)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1402 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1962 N | 1962 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 286 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-SCD63X50 Is Used
Cell Stacking and Tabbing
Provides equal push and pull thrust for precise electrode alignment and tab welding, utilizing the rear rod for mounting secondary tooling or stoppers in battery cell assembly.
Shuttle Transfer Tables
Drives bidirectional shuttle mechanisms in module handling lines, where the symmetric loading and anti-rotation characteristics of the double rod ensure stable transfer.
Non-Rotating Pushers
Actuates clamping or positioning pushers on pack assembly conveyors, benefiting from the enhanced rod guidance to prevent workpiece twisting during contact.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X50 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 63 mm bore double-rod cylinder when your battery line requires identical force both ways (1402 N at 0.5 MPa) within a short 50 mm stroke. If your application only needs one-sided actuation, the standard AirTAC SC63X50 single-rod cylinder is a lighter, more economical choice. Conversely, if your module handling fixture imposes severe side loads, a dedicated guided cylinder rather than a through-rod model is necessary to prevent rod bending.
To replace this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and confirm whether a magnetic piston (-S) is required for CMSG/DMSG sensor tracking. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not lock or hold the load. If battery cell positioning must be maintained without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve must be fitted.
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-SCD63X50 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard AirTAC SCD63X50 double-rod cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the base model, offering the same 63 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, and physical specifications, but is designated for battery industry applications.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical push and pull forces because the rod area is subtracted from both sides. For the 63 mm bore, this means 1402 N of force in both directions at 0.5 MPa. The through-rod also allows mounting tooling or sensors on the rear end and offers better anti-rotation resistance than a single-rod model.
