Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X30SAS
The AirTAC Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X30SAS is a genuine HLQ slide-table cylinder, 20 mm bore: a double-acting dual-rod air cylinder integrated with a ball-bearing guide so the table travels straight with high rigidity and low deflection. It delivers about 236 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.

About the Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X30SAS
The AirTAC HLQ20X30SAS is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder pairing an air cylinder with a ball-bearing linear guide. Bore 20 with a 30 mm stroke gives a compact guided motion package whose dual rods double the thrust output. The ball-bearing rail resists rust and excludes dust, making it well suited to environments where cleanliness and corrosion resistance are priorities. A floating joint protects the rods from side-load torque.
This is a genuine AirTAC component with a standard sintered NdFeB magnet for position feedback. Sensor switches CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH fit the magnetic-switch slots machined into the body. Contact us to confirm thrust values, dimensional drawings, and allowable load and moment from the datasheet or the on-page spec table.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC HL slide-table data. Max working pressure is 0.7 MPa. The table rides on an integrated linear guide — do not apply strong impact or large moment. Allowable load and moment are published as tables and curves, and overall dimensions vary per stroke — ask us and we confirm from the datasheet.
How to choose
A bore 20 slide table delivers higher thrust than the 6, 8, 12, or 16 mm options in the HLQ ball-bearing family, so select it when the workload exceeds what a smaller bore can push. The HLQ ball-bearing guide is the right choice when anti-rust and dust-proof characteristics outweigh the heavier load capacity of an HLS cross-roller guide. This variant includes an adjustable rubber stopper on the extension side (AS), giving controlled cushioning as the table advances. Thread standard is PT; specify G or NPT if needed. We size allowable load, moment, and kinetic energy from the published tables and deflection curves.
Applications
Gripper Traverse
Mount a parallel gripper on the table to open and close on parts, traversing them 30 mm with smooth ball-bearing motion.
Sorting Diverter
Divert small packages or trays between two lanes with low-friction ball-guided travel and dust-proof protection.
Adjustable Stop Position
Use the extension-side rubber stopper to tune the forward end-of-stroke position for consistent part placement.
FAQ
What is the difference between AS and AF adjuster codes?
AS places the adjustable rubber stopper on the extension (advance) side, while AF places it on the retraction (return) side. Both let you fine-tune cushioning at the designated end of stroke; the opposite end uses the standard bumper.
Can I run the HLQ20 at speeds up to 500 mm/s?
Yes, the rated speed range is 50-500 mm/s. Use meter-out speed-control valves for smooth operation, and keep the operating pressure within 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi) for bore 20. Never exceed the 0.7 MPa maximum working pressure.
