About the Airtac B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE32X20SB
This B52-ACE32X20SB is a double acting ISO 21287 compact cylinder from AirTAC, delivering a 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The B52- prefix designates the copper-free (copper-prohibited) build, suited for lines where copper alloys are not permitted, such as ammonia systems or certain electronics plants; the exact material substitutions should be confirmed with us.
Its short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, fitting tight jigs and guards. With the optional -S magnet fitted, this unit works with CMSE or DMSE switches; for a real workload, plan on about 241 N (0.6 times the push force) as a safe working load at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting roughly 24.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

Where the Airtac B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE32X20SB Is Used
PCB Handling Gripper
In a PCB assembly line, this 20 mm stroke cylinder actuates a gripper to lift and place boards, with the 402.1 N push handling the weight and the compact body fitting between conveyor rails.
Battery Tab Press
For a battery tab bending station, the B52-ACE32X20SB provides a controlled 20 mm stroke to press tabs, and the copper-free build avoids contamination in sensitive electronics manufacturing areas.
Sorting Gate Actuator
On a small sorting conveyor, this cylinder drives a diverter gate with a 20 mm stroke, cycling at up to 500 mm/s to redirect packages, while the magnet enables position sensing for PLC control.
Is the Airtac B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE32X20SB the Right Cylinder?
For a lighter duty, consider the ACE25X20 with a 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the ACE40X20 offers a 628.3 N push for heavier tasks. This 32 mm bore model is a balanced choice for medium-force automation. Note that a plain ACE does not hold its position when air is lost; for load holding, add a rod lock or pilot check valve. The male rod thread (B) and the fitted magnet (S) make it ready for sensor feedback and direct coupling.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Short stroke fits the compact body
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S if you need the magnet for sensors
- ✓ Rod type (female / male B) & mount (FA/LB/CA)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Compact body: keep the stroke short and avoid side load on the rod.
- check Do not dismantle the threaded front/back covers.
- check Keep speed within the rated range; the TPU bumper absorbs stroke-end energy.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B52-ACE Non-Copper Compact Cylinder B52-ACE32X20SB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402.1 N and the pull force is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 563 N and pull is 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The B52- prefix indicates a copper-free (copper-prohibited) build, for environments where copper alloys are not allowed; confirm exact substitutions with us. The ISO 21287 body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, saving space in tight fixtures, and the fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact without needing adjustment.
