SMC MGP Series Compact Guide Cylinder, 12mm Bore size, 50mm Stroke Length - MGPL12-50Z

This Compact guide cylinder provides controlled linear motion with guided stability for automated systems. Designed for bi-directional operation, it combines a Compact aluminium-alloy body with guided rod support to deliver precise actuation in plant and equipment settings. It is suitable for integration into pneumatic assemblies where guided movement and a Compact footprint are required.

Features and Benefits:

• 12mm bore offering consistent force delivery and Compact form
• 50mm stroke enabling short-travel positioning tasks
• Double-acting design provides push and pull control
• Rubber bumpers on both ends reduce impact and noise
• Ball bushing guide ensures low-friction lateral rigidity
• M5 piston-rod thread simplifies secure end fittings

Applications

• Suitable for pick-and-place units requiring guided thrust
• Ideal for component positioning in assembly machines
• Used for parallel guidance in test and inspection rigs
• Can be used for clamp actuation in electronic production

What pressure range can it tolerate for reliable operation?

It operates up to 1 MPa, allowing use with standard shop pneumatic supplies for consistent actuation.

How does temperature affect its serviceability?

It functions between −10°C and 60°C, permitting use in typical factory ambient and enclosed machine conditions.

What is the recommended speed capability for the piston?

The piston can travel at speeds up to 500 mm/s, supporting fast cyclic movements while maintaining guidance.

What mounting options are available for installation flexibility?

It can be mounted from the side, bottom or top, enabling diverse fixture orientations.

What environmental or material considerations are relevant for selection?

The body is aluminium alloy and the unit meets RoHS, supporting lightweight installations and restricted-substance requirements.
