About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X50SCM
Delivering 563 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, the MIC32X50SCM is a robust double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for demanding motion tasks. It features a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod that resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Unlike smaller bores, this Ø32 unit is a non-ISO-6432 size, yet it retains a highly compact riveted construction. The integrated -S piston magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for precise position detection.
A defining feature of this model is the adjustable air cushion at both ends, which uses a needle valve to decelerate the load smoothly at high speeds, reducing shock and noise compared to fixed bumpers. Operating at speeds of 30-800 mm/s, it provides a safe working load of roughly 241 N (about 60% of its 402.2 N push force at 0.5 MPa). With a 1/8" port and a male M10x1.25 rod thread, it lifts about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X50SCM Is Used
High-Speed Carton Diverting
Uses the 563 N push force to rapidly push heavy cartons on a packaging line, relying on the adjustable air cushion to silently stop the 50 mm stroke without slamming.
Component Pressing Station
Applies a safe 241 N working load to seat bearings or pins, taking advantage of the stainless-steel build to survive light coolant splash in machining cells.
Vertical Lift Gate
Lifts a 20.5 kg gate vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, using the -S magnet and DMSG sensors to confirm the fully open and closed positions.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X50SCM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, evaluate your force margins carefully. If you need less push, stepping down to the MIC25 bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 245.3 N, whereas moving up to the MIC40 increases it to 628.3 N. The adjustable air cushion is essential here if you are driving heavy loads at high speeds, as it prevents end-of-stroke banging. Note that the cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake.
Because a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or a valve is centered, you must add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if the application requires holding a load in place. This specific SKU includes the -S magnet for electronic or reed switches and uses a CM round rear cover. You can mount it using LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion brackets.

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 Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X50SCM FAQ
This double-acting cylinder has a Ø32 mm bore and a 50 mm stroke. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 1/8" port, a Ø12 mm piston rod, and a male M10x1.25 rod thread.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke to reduce shock; it is not a brake or lock. If you need to hold a load vertically or prevent drift on air loss, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position feedback.
