About the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X450-30S
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X450-30S is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and tunable air cushions at both ends. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa via a Ø12 mm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod. The built-in magnet (-S) enables position detection across the 450 mm travel. A 30 mm rear trimmer sets a usable end-position window of 420-450 mm.
Unlike the base MBLJ with its fixed rubber bumper, this SKU uses screw-tunable end-of-stroke cushioning to decelerate heavy loads, protecting the end covers. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and grease-retaining piston seal maintain performance at 30-800 mm/s. Remember, the rear adjuster is a mechanical travel stop, not a load lock; the cushion only decelerates and cannot hold position without live air.

Where the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X450-30S Is Used
Textile Loom Beater
Drives the 450 mm reed motion on a weaving loom, using the tunable air cushion to silently decelerate the 402 N push force at high cycling speeds without jarring the frame.
Pallet Transfer Pusher
Indexes packaged goods onto a secondary packaging line, utilizing the 420-450 mm adjustable window to dial in the exact push distance for varying carton sizes.
PCB Edge Connector Seating
Applies precise 346 N pull force to seat motherboard edge connectors, relying on the DMSG electronic sensor switch to confirm the retracted position before downstream robotic placement.
Is the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X450-30S the Right Cylinder?
Delivering 402 N push at 0.5 MPa, stepping down to the 25 mm bore yields 245 N, while the 40 mm bore provides 628 N for heavier demands. Choose MBLCJ over the MBLJ when your moving mass requires tunable pneumatic deceleration rather than a fixed bumper, or over the MBLC if you need to fine-tune the end position. Ensure your replacement matches: 32 mm bore, 450 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust, G1/8 PT port, Basic/FA/LB mounting, and the -S magnet. Mounting is restricted to Basic, FA, or LB; no SDB or back-cover options exist.
At 450 mm, the overall length grows significantly (A + 2 x stroke + adjust). The small 12 mm rod is highly susceptible to side-load bending over this distance, so an external guide rail is mandatory to prevent premature seal wear. Neither the rear stopper nor the cushion acts as a lock; a separate external guide must carry the load weight.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Adjustable window fits your end position
- ✓ Adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — add a guide on long strokes
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Set the rear stopper for the end position (a travel stop, not a lock).
- check Avoid side load; add an external guide on long strokes.
- check Mounting: Basic / FA flange / LB foot (no SDB, no back-cover code).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X450-30S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 402 N push and 346 N pull. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 563 N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa, with an operating pressure range of 0.15-1.0 MPa.
The rear adjustable stroke is a mechanical stop that trims the end position within a 420-450 mm window. The adjustable air cushion is a screw-tunable valve that controls end-of-stroke deceleration. Neither holds the load; both require live air to function.
