About the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X100SCA
The AirTAC MBLC32X100SCA is a double-acting, adjustable-air-cushion mini cylinder built on a riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel. Delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it uses a Ø12 mm carbon-steel rod with 20 µm hard-chrome plating to resist wear. The 100 mm stroke is tuned by screw-adjustable pneumatic needles at both ends, decelerating the piston smoothly to protect the end covers on fast or repetitive moves.
This SKU includes a CA pivot (clevis) back cover that swings on a pin to accommodate arcing or angular loads, preventing rod binding. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG reed or DMSG/EMSG electronic sensor switches for position detection. The heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal maintains lubrication over the 30-800 mm/s speed range.

Where the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X100SCA Is Used
PCB Router Z-Axis
Lifts and lowers a spindle motor on a PCB depaneling router, using the 100 mm stroke to clear the tool. The cushion prevents jarring stops that would snap fragile carbide bits.
Carton Flap Folder
Folds minor carton flaps on a continuous packaging line. The CA pivot absorbs side-load from misaligned cardboard, while the 402 N force easily overcomes folding resistance.
Semiconductor Wafer Gate
Actuates a sliding access door on a wafer processing chamber. The DMSG electronic sensor confirms full open/close positions, and the cushion ensures the door seats softly without vibration.
Is the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X100SCA the Right Cylinder?
At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore generates 402 N push and 346 N pull. If your payload is lighter, step down to the 25 mm bore (245 N push); for heavier masses, step up to the 40 mm bore (628 N push). Choose this MBLC over the base MBL when your cycle times demand high-speed operation and a fixed rubber bumper would cause premature impact wear. The cushion needle only decelerates the piston near the stroke ends; it is not a brake, so the rod will drift if air is lost. Replacement match: 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, CA pivot cover, magnet fitted.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB / FA / SDB) and back cover (CA pivot / U flat-end).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X100SCA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, it delivers 563 N push. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Screw-tunable pneumatic needles at both ends trap exhaust air to decelerate the piston smoothly near stroke ends. You tune the needle to match your load and speed, reducing end-cover impact and noise. It only decelerates; it is not a load lock or brake.
