SMC Pneumatic Guided Cylinder 20mm Bore, MGP Series, 40mm Stroke, Double Acting, Slide Bearing Guide MGPM20TF-40Z

SMC MGPM20TF-40Z Pneumatic Guided Cylinder belongs to the MGP Series and features a compact design with a 20mm bore diameter and 40mm stroke length. This double acting pneumatic cylinder uses a slide bearing guide mechanism that reduces lateral play to provide stable, precise linear motion suitable for automated equipment in electronics, electrical, and mechanical assembly lines.

Designed for industrial use, it can endure maximum operating pressures of up to 1 MPa and operates reliably within a temperature range of -10°C to 60°C. The cylinder is cushioned with rubber bumpers at both ends to absorb shock and minimize wear to adjoining parts, contributing to longer machine life. Its compact dimensions (58mm height, 26mm width, 93mm length) and lightweight construction (830g) make it ideal for installation in space-constrained environments.

Mounting options include bottom, side, and top mounts, allowing flexible integration into various machine frames to optimize layout and workspace. The single rod design with G-thread standard facilitates easy attachment of tooling and end fittings, enabling versatile use in precision pneumatic applications.

Typical industrial applications for this cylinder include pick-and-place stations requiring guided motion, small press or stamping fixtures with confined spaces, automated inspection rigs demanding accurate linear travel, and assembly conveyor transfer modules. The piston speed can reach up to 500 mm/s, supporting moderately fast cycling while maintaining guided stability.

The 20mm bore delivers consistent force for guided positioning. The 40mm stroke accommodates short travel needs with repeatability. Double acting operation ensures controlled force in extension and retraction. Slide bearing guide minimizes lateral movement for precise actuation.

Rubber bumpers cushion end-of-stroke impacts, reducing wear. Operates at pressures up to 1 MPa for dependable performance. Works across a broad temperature range of -10°C to 60°C. Multiple mounting configurations enhance layout flexibility.

Lightweight design at 830 grams supports easy installation. Single rod with G-thread standard simplifies tooling connections.

This pneumatic guided cylinder is optimized for applications in manufacturing, automation, laboratory, industrial machinery, and HVAC sectors. It delivers repeatable, guided linear motion essential for precision tasks in compact spaces.
