About the Airtac SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX50S
The AirTAC SE40BX50S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for precise linear motion. Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (879 N at 0.7 MPa), it bridges the gap between compact and heavy-duty actuation. The extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a smooth, corrosion-resistant profile that mounts flush in tight machinery enclosures.
Equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod, this variant is purpose-built for washdown and corrosive environments. The integrated -S magnet enables direct position feedback via AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors seated in the three-sided sensor groove. Field-adjustable air cushions at both ends allow you to tune end-of-stroke deceleration, protecting payloads from harsh mechanical impacts.

Where the Airtac SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX50S Is Used
Flow Wrapper End-Sealing
Drives the rotary and sealing jaws on continuous-motion flow wrappers, utilizing the 628 N push force and 50 mm stroke to cleanly crimp and sever packaging film at high cycle rates.
PCB Panel Bending
Applies controlled pressure to form or straighten light-gauge electronic enclosures, where the SUS304 stainless steel rod prevents corrosion from flux fumes or washdown cleaning agents.
Lab Dispenser Actuation
Actuates precision fluid dispensing valves in diagnostic equipment, relying on the built-in magnet and DMSE electronic sensors for exact volume metering at 50 mm travel.
Is the Airtac SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX50S the Right Cylinder?
With a 50 mm stroke and 628 N push at 0.5 MPa, this cylinder fits medium-duty positioning tasks. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 32 mm bore yields 402 N of push, while moving up to the 50 mm bore provides 982 N for heavier loads. Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it relies on continuous air pressure to hold position; if air is lost, the piston will drift. For applications demanding failsafe load holding, pair this unit with an external pilot-operated check valve or explore the BSE rod-lock series. The PT1/4 port and M12x1.25 rod thread match standard ISO 15552 mounting hardware for direct retrofits.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE 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/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX50S FAQ
