Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X200S
The AirTAC Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X200S is a genuine guide-frame (guided) pneumatic cylinder — a Ø25mm double-acting MI mini cylinder built into a twin-rod guide unit running on linear bearings. The guide frame absorbs side load and torque so the 200mm stroke stays true, giving you a ready-to-mount linear slide without a separate guide.

About the Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X200S
Built around a 25 mm bore and 200 mm stroke, this twin-rod guide frame integrates an MIC mini cylinder with variable air cushions at both ends. Running on linear bearings for low friction and high precision, it drives a 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa through a 1/8" port. The needle-set cushions absorb high-speed shock for smooth, square stops.
Because the frame carries side load and torque, thrust is not the guided-load limit; you must size the allowable load from the TMI load-offset curve. For vertical push-up moves, expect about 12.5 kg of safe lifting force with a 2:1 margin, load curve permitting. The -S suffix adds a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position sensing.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC TMI/TMIC datasheet. Guide frame & fixed plate: aluminum alloy; matching cylinder: MI/MIC round-body mini cylinder. Allowable load depends on the load-offset distance — consult the TMI/TMIC maximum-load curves before final selection. Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
Thrust equals the underlying MI cylinder. The usable load a guide frame can carry is limited by the load-offset curve, not by thrust alone — always check both. Actual force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.

Where the Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X200S Is Used
Vertical Pressing
Pushes about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin at 0.5 MPa, using linear bearings for smooth, low-friction descent and air cushions to absorb impact.
High-Speed Diverting
Handles fast lateral sorting of heavier product with 245.3 N of thrust while the twin-rod frame resists side load and torque for accurate motion.
Carton Forming
Drives a 200 mm stroke to fold or secure heavy packaging materials, relying on needle-set air cushions to quietly stop the load at cycle end.
Is the Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X200S the Right Cylinder?
At the top of the TMICL range, this 25 mm bore delivers 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your load-offset allows it, you can step down to the 20 mm bore (157.0 N push) for lighter duties; there is no larger standard TMICL, so for heavier forces consider an external rod lock or a different frame. Choose these linear bearings over the brass-bearing TMICM when smooth, accurate travel and low friction matter more than torsional stiffness.
The variable air cushion is essential for the 30-500 mm/s speed range at this 200 mm stroke, preventing end-of-stroke shock. The -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for precise positioning. Remember that the cushion only decelerates the piston; it does not hold position on air loss, so use a pilot check valve for suspended loads.

Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Keep the load within the load-offset curve.
- check Mount on a flat, rigid surface using the fixed plate.
- check Do not exceed the rated speed (30-500 mm/s).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X200S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa it pushes 343.4 N and pulls 288.5 N, with a theoretical max of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Thrust is not the load limit: the allowable load depends on the load-offset distance and must be read from the TMI load curve.
No, the variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it is not a brake or lock, so the piston drifts on air loss. The -S suffix means a magnet is built in for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. The 1/8" port and linear bearings ensure smooth, precise travel.
