SMC Corporation MXQ16L-50A Guided Slide Cylinder

SMC MXQ16L-50A Guided Slide Cylinder is a compact pneumatic actuator from the MXQ slide-table family, with a 16 mm bore and a 50 mm stroke that provides precise guided linear motion in tight spaces. The MXQ platform integrates a built‑in guide rail and recirculating bearings to isolate the load path from the piston movement, improving align­ment stability and reducing side load during travel. The -A variant denotes a magnet‑equipped version, enabling piston‑position sensing or reference detection, and the cylinder operates as a double‑acting, air‑driven unit. This model is well suited for automated positioning, fixture actuation, and small‑footprint transfer tasks where accurate, guided motion is required.
