SMC MGP Series Compact Guide Cylinder, 16mm Bore size, 30mm Stroke Length - MGPL16-30Z


This Compact guide cylinder provides guided linear motion for automation tasks in confined assemblies, combining a guided sliding mechanism with pneumatic actuation to control lateral loads and maintain alignment in short-stroke operations. It is intended for installation where a small, guided actuator is required to perform controlled double-acting strokes within equipment for electronics, electrical and mechanical processes.

Features and Benefits:


• 16mm bore for Compact force delivery and confined spaces
• 30mm stroke for short-travel positioning tasks
• Double-acting operation for controlled extend and retract motion
• Aluminium alloy body for reduced mass and ease of mounting
• Ball bushing guide for improved lateral rigidity and accuracy
• Rubber bumpers on both ends for quieter, cushioned impacts
• 500 mm/s maximum piston speed for Rapid cycle capability
• M5x0.8 piston rod thread for fine attachment options
• 1 MPa maximum operating pressure for consistent actuation force
• −10 °C to 60 °C operating range for standard industrial environments

Applications


• Suitable for pick-and-place heads in Compact assembly machines
• Ideal for alignment tasks in PCB handling equipment
• Used with small fixtures for panel positioning in electrical enclosures
• Can be used for micro-transfer systems in electronics assembly
• Suitable for actuation of levers and stops in mechanical jigs

What bearing arrangement maintains accuracy under side loads?


A ball bushing guide delivers precise lateral support, reducing shaft deflection and preserving repeatable positioning under transverse forces.

How should I select supply pressure for smooth cushioning?


Operate below the 1 MPa limit and tune supply pressure to match cycle speed so the rubber bumpers engage progressively without hard impacts at the required piston velocity.

What attachment options exist for the rod end?


The piston rod is threaded M5x0.8, enabling Compact fittings, clevises or custom end‑effectors sized for small pneumatic systems.

How does temperature affect operation?


The permitted ambient range of −10 °C to 60 °C indicates Seals and materials are suitable for typical indoor industrial settings but may require review for extreme thermal conditions.
