Product Description:
The SMC CQ2A Series ultra-compact cylinders provide precise linear motion in confined spaces. These double-acting single-rod cylinders have a 12mm bore size with stroke options ranging from 5mm to 50mm. They are designed to be 30% shorter than standard cylinders while maintaining high performance. Made from aerospace-grade aluminum with hard anodization, these cylinders operate at 0.05-1.0MPa (7-145 psi) and can generate a maximum thrust of 90N.
The pre-lubricated seals of the CQ2A Series cylinders allow for maintenance-free operation, and their integrated magnetic fields facilitate sensor mounting. These cylinders are compatible with SMC's modular accessory system, which includes guides, valves, and mounting brackets.
Features:
Space-Optimized Design
Ultra-Compact: 24mm width, 40% shorter than ISO cylinders (e.g., 82mm @50mm stroke)
Lightweight: Topology-optimized aluminum body (0.15kg @50mm stroke)
Modular Integration: Direct mounting with MXS guides/VQ valves
Precision Performance
Balanced Thrust: 90N±3% bidirectional force @1.0MPa
High Speed: 500mm/s operation, 0.15s response time @50mm stroke
Adjustable Cushioning: Optional hydraulic damper (0.043J absorption)
Enhanced Durability
Wide Temp. Option: -XB6 seals for -40~150°C (-40~302°F) operation
Corrosion Resistance: -XC6 stainless steel kit (SUS304 rod)
IP65 Protection: -XC4 dual wipers for dust/dirt environments
Smart Mounting
4-Side Sensor Slots: Compatible with D-M9N sensors (Φ3.5mm slot)
8 Mounting Styles: Pre-loaded screws for A/L/D-type configurations
Stroke Adjustment: ±5mm travel modification with -XC8 module
Advanced Engineering
Hard Anodized Bore: 25μm coating, 3× wear resistance
Hard Chrome Plated Rod: 0.02mm thickness, μ≤0.15 friction coefficient
Zero-Leakage Seals: X271 FKM compound, <0.1mL/min leakage @0.5MPa
Applications:
Diagnostic Sample Transfer: 35-50mm stroke variants with -XC6 stainless steel kits handle biological samples in analyzers, preventing contamination in FDA-compliant environments.
Reagent Dispensing: Low-pressure operation (0.05MPa) achieves 0.1mL fluid dosing accuracy in IVD instruments using 10mm stroke units.
Compact Automation Cells
Optical Inspection: 40mm stroke cylinders position AOI cameras at 50-200mm/s adjustable speeds, minimizing vibration during high-magnification imaging.
Robotic End-Effectors: Integrated with collaborative robots for lightweight part insertion (25mm stroke, M3 rod threads) under 0.5s cycle times.
Packaging Machinery
High-Speed Cutting: 50mm stroke models actuate blades in film-sealing systems, completing cuts in 0.2s at 1.0MPa with hydraulic cushioning for shock reduction.
Label Alignment: 15mm stroke versions with -DZ mounting ears correct label position deviations ≤0.3mm in pharmaceutical blister packaging lines.
Case Study: A medical device manufacturer reduced machine thickness by 42% using CQ2A12-30DMZ with 4-side sensors, cutting downtime 70% in cartridge loading systems.
