SMC Corporation MXQ8-20R Industrial Pneumatic Actuator

The SMC MXQ8-20R is a compact air slide table in the MXQ series that provides 8 mm bore and 20 mm stroke with double-acting actuation, featuring a recirculating linear guide for high rigidity and precise, repeatable travel. The built-in guide rail and table integration deliver smooth motion ideal for light-duty positioning tasks in automation. An end-lock function is available on the MXQ8-20R family, helping lock the table in place when unpowered. Port threads support both M-type and Rc formats, giving compatibility with a range of fittings. Some MXQ8-20R variants are offered with an optional non-contact auto switch (M9BZ) including a 5 m lead, suitable for DC 24 V operation. Max payload for typical MXQ8-20 configurations is around 1 kg, making it well-suited for small-part handling, fixture alignment, and precise jig positioning in assembly or inspection setups.
