Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X230S
The AirTAC Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X230S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 230mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its hard-anodized aluminum-profile barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, and it shares SC-series mounting accessories.

About the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X230S
The AirTAC SAUD32X230S is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder. A 12mm rod exits both ends, meaning push and pull forces are identical at 345 N each way when operated at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel keeps the unit shorter than a standard ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 32mm bore.
This -S variant includes a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You can mount a sensor cam on the back rod to trip external flags. Based on the 345 N output, your safe working load is roughly 207 N, which translates to a vertical lift capacity of about 18 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. It uses a 1/8 inch port and offers a 21mm adjustable air cushion at each end.

Where the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X230S Is Used
Synchronized Transfer
Drives two parallel pick-and-place fingers simultaneously, keeping them perfectly aligned without rotational twist during horizontal part transfers.
Scanner Cam Trigger
Uses the protruding back rod to carry a custom cam, mechanically tripping a limit switch or scanner at a precise midpoint position.
Balanced Vertical Lift
Raises and lowers an 18 kg packaging flap with identical force both up and down, preventing gravitational drift during valve transitions.
Is the Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X230S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32mm bore if you need 345 N of equal bidirectional force. Stepping up to the 40mm bore yields 528 N, while dropping below 32 is not standard for this series. A double rod is the right call for anti-rotation guidance, driving twin tooling, or rear-end sensing. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, and LB types compatible with the AirTAC SC series. Because the 230mm stroke exceeds 300mm? No, but for any stroke approaching 300mm, ensure external guide rails to prevent side-load binding. The built-in magnet allows precise position detection.

- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/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 (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB — same as SC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAUD Double Rod Cylinder SAUD32X230S FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the force is equal in both directions. It provides 345 N at 0.5 MPa, 483 N at 0.7 MPa, and 621 N at 0.9 MPa. The unit features a 1/8 inch port and a 12mm rod at both ends.
No, a plain cylinder drifts without live air, and the 21mm cushion only decelerates near the stroke end. To hold a load securely, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
