The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL20X150SB is a genuine HLS slide-table cylinder, 20 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 236 N of push at 0.5 MPa. This is the symmetrical version. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.
The HLSL20X150SB is a symmetrical cross-roller slide table cylinder with a 20 mm bore and 150 mm stroke. An integrated cross-roller guide keeps the table rigid and straight with minimal deflection, which is what separates a slide table from a simple rod cylinder on precision moves. The double-acting dual-rod layout doubles thrust for the bore and the floating joint stops side loads from reaching the rods. The B suffix means shock absorbers are fitted at both ends, making this the version to specify for fast cycles or heavier moving mass at each stop.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with the magnet fitted as standard, ready for CMSH, DMSH or EMSH switches in the body slots. The exact thrust for bore 20 and the full dimensions, allowable load and moment data are published in the specification table and datasheet - we confirm them on request before you commit.

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.
Among HLSL bores, 20 mm gives higher thrust than 6, 8, 12 and 16 mm, with bore 25 above it - match the bore to the push your payload needs. HLSL cross-roller is chosen for precision and rigidity; HLQ ball-bearing wins on anti-rust, dust-proof service, HLH on miniature straightness, HLF on reduced height. The 150 mm stroke is a standard bore 20 length. B gives shock absorbers on both ends (not offered on bore 6); choose A/AS/AF if rubber stoppers suit the cycle instead. PT thread ports. For cycle-rate and kinetic-energy checks at the stops, send us the moving mass and speed and we will verify against the published Wmax and Emax tables.
The rigid cross-roller table acts as a precise stopping station, with both-end shock absorbers taking repeated arrivals of carried parts.
Straight, low-deflection travel over 150 mm presents parts to a camera or gauge at the same position every cycle, with sensor switching via the standard magnet.
The symmetrical cross-roller slide carries a dispensing tip or print head across the work, floating joint absorbing any lateral pull from the tooling.
B adds shock absorbers at both ends of the 150 mm stroke, so it is the right choice for faster speeds toward the 500 mm/s limit or higher moving mass, where plain bumpers would pass too much impact into the table. Rubber-stopper options (A, AS, AF) suit gentler cycles; B-type is not offered on bore 6.
Allowable load, moment and kinetic energy for this bore and stroke are published as tables and deflection curves in the datasheet - we confirm the figures for your application on request rather than estimating. Operationally, keep supply between 0.15 and 0.7 MPa (22-100 psi), never above 0.7 MPa, and control speed from 50 to 500 mm/s.
