Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS6X30S
The AirTAC Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS6X30S is a genuine HLS slide-table cylinder, 6 mm bore: a double-acting dual-rod air cylinder integrated with a cross-roller guide so the table travels straight with high rigidity and low deflection. It delivers about 21 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 HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS6X30S
The HLS6X30S is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that pairs an air cylinder with a cross-roller linear guide for straight, precise travel with high rigidity. With a bore 6 and 30 mm stroke, it suits compact positioning tasks requiring light thrust. The cross-roller construction resists deflection under side loads, the dual rod doubles thrust output, and the floating joint prevents side torque on the rod.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The magnet is standard for position detection, with magnetic-switch slots on the body accepting CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH sensor switches. We verify thrust, dimensions, and load-moment data from the AirTAC datasheet or on-page spec table on request.

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
Bore 6 gives light thrust for small workpieces; step up to a larger bore when more push is needed. The HLS cross-roller guide provides the highest precision and rigidity among HL sub-families, best where deflection under side load matters. This model uses the basic bumper cushion with no additional adjuster. Stroke 30 mm is within the bore 6 range. Thread is standard PT; G and NPT options exist. For load, moment, and kinetic-energy sizing, we confirm values from the published tables and curves.
Applications
Gripper Traverse
Carries a small pneumatic gripper across a 30 mm stroke for precise part gripping and release in a mini-assembly cell.
Small-Parts Transfer
Moves lightweight components between two fixturing positions with cross-roller precision to maintain orientation.
Sensor Probe Positioning
Positions a measurement probe against small parts for in-line quality checks, guided by the rigid cross-roller table.
FAQ
Does this HLS6X30S include an adjustable stopper or shock absorber?
No. The S in the code means a magnet is fitted, which is standard on all HL models. The adjuster position is blank, meaning basic bumper cushion with no rubber stopper or shock absorber. If you need cushioning control, consider the A (both-end rubber stopper) or AS (extension-side) variant.
How fast can this slide table cycle?
Speed range is 50 to 500 mm/s. Use meter-out speed control to keep the slide within this range. Operating pressure for bore 6 is 0.2 to 0.7 MPa (29 to 100 psi); never exceed 0.7 MPa.
