The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X600S 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, 600mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD63X600S 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 SCD63X600S. Because the Ø20 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers. This yields an equal push and pull force of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 2523 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure.
With a 600 mm stroke, this unit suits long-travel transfer and shuttle movements on cell stacking or module assembly lines. The barrel measures 210 mm in body length A(SCD) and features adjustable cushions with a 28 mm stroke length to decelerate the payload smoothly at both ends. The built-in magnet (-S) allows CMSG or DMSG sensors to track piston position directly on the cylinder body.

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.
| 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.

Moves battery cells between processing stations on a conveyor, using the dual rods to carry a symmetric transfer carriage that prevents yaw during rapid 600 mm traverses.
Pushes battery modules into stacking fixtures with identical force on extension and retraction, ensuring precise alignment without the rotational play of a single rod.
Actuates a clamping head for battery tab welding, using the rear rod extension to mount a physical stopper that defines the exact clamp position independent of air pressure fluctuations.
This 63 mm bore provides 1402 N of thrust each way at 0.5 MPa. If your battery handling fixture requires less force, stepping down to a 50 mm bore yields 825 N, saving space. If you need to push heavier pack loads, an 80 mm bore provides 2268 N. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if you only need force in one direction and want a shorter overall footprint, but choose this SCD model when you need a rear rod for mounting a stopper, secondary tooling, or a sensor flag.
When replacing this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and the -S magnet. Because the stroke is 600 mm, the long unsupported rod is susceptible to bending under heavy side loads; use an external linear guide or a dedicated guided cylinder to support the payload and prevent premature seal wear.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard AirTAC SCD63X600S, offering the same 1402 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa, 600 mm stroke, and built-in magnet, simply designated for battery industry automation.
No, the 28 mm adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends to prevent impact damage. If a battery module load must be held in position without live air pressure, you must use an external mechanical lock, a rod brake, or a pilot-operated check valve, as the cylinder will drift otherwise.
