Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X900
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X900 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, 900mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X900
The B06-SCD63X900 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 SCD63X900. It features a 63 mm bore and a 900 mm stroke, generating an equal push and pull force of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa (1962 N at 0.7 MPa). The through-rod design uses a 20 mm diameter rod on both ends, ensuring symmetric bearing loading and superior anti-rotation characteristics for demanding industrial tasks.
Because the piston rod protrudes from both end caps, the effective pressure area remains identical in both directions, providing stable bidirectional thrust. This unit includes adjustable cushions with a 28 mm length to decelerate the piston smoothly at stroke ends. The retracted body length is based on the SCD body length A of 210 mm, which is longer than an equivalent single-rod SC cylinder to accommodate the dual protruding rods.

| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X900 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø63 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø20 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 900 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-SCD63X900 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Drives precision stacking mechanisms in prismatic cell assembly, using the dual-rod geometry to prevent rotation and maintain parallel pressure across electrode sheets.
Module Shuttle Transfer
Actuates long-travel shuttle tables for moving battery modules between welding stations, leveraging the equal push and pull force for consistent cycling.
Tab Welding Press
Provides stable, non-rotating downward pressure for busbar tab welding, utilizing the rear rod end for mounting a mechanical stopper or position sensor flag.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X900 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 63 mm bore when an application requires exactly 1402 N of thrust each way at 0.5 MPa. If your battery stacking or handling mechanism needs less force, stepping down to a 50 mm bore yields 825 N each way, while moving up to an 80 mm bore provides 2268 N. For applications where rear tooling or a sensor flag is unnecessary, a single-rod AirTAC SC cylinder offers a shorter overall length and simpler mounting.
At a 900 mm stroke, the long unsupported rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; an external guide rail or a true guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent rod damage and premature seal wear. To replace this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 900 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and lack of a magnet. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and cannot hold a load if air pressure is lost; a mechanical lock or external brake is required for position holding without live pressure.
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-SCD63X900 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC cylinder dedicated to battery-manufacturing lines, such as cell, module, and pack assembly. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD63X900, featuring the same 63 mm bore, 900 mm stroke, and 1402 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical push and pull forces because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. In this 63 mm bore model, that yields 1402 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. The through-rod also offers better anti-rotation control and allows tooling or sensors to be mounted on the rear end.
