SMC Corporation MGQM50-50-XC18 Guided Cylinder

SMC MGQM50-50-XC18 Guided Cylinder is a compact, double-acting pneumatic actuator with a 50 mm bore and a 50 mm stroke that delivers precise, non-rotational linear motion in automated equipment. As part of the MGQ Compact Guide Cylinder family, it employs integrated guide rails and front-and-rear scrapers to protect seals and resist lateral load, helping maintain straight travel in pick-and-place, packaging, and inline conveyance applications. The XC18 designation confirms NPT-threaded piping ports for straightforward plumbing, aligning with SMC port configurations for this bore size, while features such as rubber bumpers on both ends provide end-of-stroke cushioning and extended life. In typical MGQ/MGQM usage, piston speeds range from 50 to 500 mm/s, adjustable with operating pressure and stroke, enabling smooth, repeatable actuation in space-constrained layouts.
