SMC CQ2A12-15D Single Rod Automation Cylinder

Product Description:

The SMC CQ2A Series ultra-compact cylinders deliver high-precision linear motion in space-constrained applications. Featuring a 12mm bore size with stroke options of 5/10/15/20/25/30/35/40/45/50mm, these double-acting single-rod cylinders combine 30% shorter length than standard cylinders with robust performance.

Constructed from aerospace-grade aluminum with hard anodization, they operate at 0.05-1.0MPa (7-145 psi) to generate 90N maximum thrust. Pre-lubricated seals enable maintenance-free operation while integrated magnetic fields support sensor mounting.

Compatible with SMC's modular accessory system including guides, valves, and mounting brackets.

IP65 Protection: -XC4 dual wipers for dust/dirt environments

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

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:

Electronics Manufacturing

For micro-component handling in PCB assembly, our 5-15mm short-stroke models provide precision pick-and-place capabilities for 0201 SMD components, achieving ±0.05mm repeatability.

When it comes to laser marking systems, our 20-30mm stroke options operate marking heads with position feedback through D-M9N sensors, guaranteeing alignment accuracy with less than 0.1mm deviation.

Medical & Laboratory Equipment

Our diagnostic sample transfer solutions offer 35-50mm stroke variants equipped with -XC6 stainless steel kits for handling biological samples in analyzers, ensuring contamination prevention in FDA-compliant environments.

For precise reagent dispensing in IVD instruments, our units with 10mm stroke capability operate at low pressure (0.05MPa) to achieve 0.1mL fluid dosing accuracy.

Compact Automation Cells

Our optical inspection systems utilize 40mm stroke cylinders to position AOI cameras at adjustable speeds of 50-200mm/s, minimizing vibration for high-magnification imaging tasks.

Integrated with collaborative robots, our robotic end-effectors with 25mm stroke and M3 rod threads enable lightweight part insertion within cycle times under 0.5s.

Packaging Machinery

When it comes to high-speed cutting requirements in packaging machinery, our 50mm stroke models actuate blades in film-sealing systems, completing cuts in just 0.2s at 1.0MPa pressure with hydraulic cushioning for shock reduction.

Our label alignment solutions, featuring 15mm stroke variants with -DZ mounting ears, are designed to correct label position deviations of up to ≤0.3mm in pharmaceutical blister packaging lines.

Case Study: A medical device manufacturer experienced a 42% reduction in machine thickness by implementing CQ2A12-30DMZ cylinders with 4-side sensors, resulting in a 70% decrease in downtime for cartridge loading systems.
