SMC 10-CDQ2B32-50DZ | Clean Room Compact Cylinder CQ2 Series 32mm Bore 50mm Stroke Double-Acting Magnetic Piston Auto-Switch Ready

The SMC 10-CDQ2B32-50DZ is a clean room specification compact cylinder from the CQ2 series with a 32mm bore and 50mm stroke. Part number decoded: CDQ2 = compact cylinder, B = basic mount, 32 = bore diameter mm, 50 = stroke mm, D = double-acting, Z = auto-switch mounting groove. The 10- clean series prefix ensures fluorine grease, controlled clean room assembly, and anti-static double packaging delivering particle generation grade 1 performance for semiconductor, pharmaceutical, and electronics manufacturing environments.

The 32mm bore generates approximately 483N of force at 0.6 MPa, making this a mid-range workhorse for clean room automation tasks requiring moderate force output. Operating at 0.05 to 1.0 MPa, the compact square-body design reduces mounting height by up to 40% compared to round-body equivalents, enabling integration into equipment enclosures where space above the cylinder is restricted. The magnetic piston supports SMC D-series auto switch mounting for end-of-stroke position detection without modifying the cylinder. Double-acting operation provides powered extend and retract without external spring return, and the unit is compatible with SMC speed controllers for precise velocity tuning.

The CDQ2B32-50DZ is well suited for workpiece clamping, gate actuation, reject mechanisms, and component positioning in clean room pick-and-place systems. For shorter strokes in 32mm bore, see CDQ2B32-25DZ (25mm) or CDQ2B32-30DZ (30mm). For longer travel, CDQ2B32-75DZ (75mm) and CDQ2B32-100DZ (100mm) extend the range. To upgrade to adjustable cushioning at both ends, specify the CDQ2B32-50DCMZ suffix. Part of SMC's CQ2 compact cylinder family. Compatible with SMC AS series speed controllers for velocity tuning, D-series auto switches for position sensing, and KQ2 fittings. RoHS compliant and CE-marked.
