SMC 10-CXSL20-20-Y7PWSAPC | Clean Room Dual Rod Cylinder CXS Series 20mm Bore 20mm Stroke Ball Bushing Guide Linear Slide Table

The SMC 10-CXSL20-20-Y7PWSAPC is a clean room specification dual rod cylinder from the CXS series with a 20mm bore and 20mm stroke. Part number decoded: CXS = compact dual rod cylinder (slide table type), L = ball bushing guide, 20 = bore mm, 20 = stroke mm, Y7PWSAPC = pre-configured option package with specific switch, cable, and connector specifications. The 20mm bore steps up from the 15mm variant, delivering approximately 188N at 0.6 MPa with the same precision ball bushing guide system.

The equal bore-to-stroke ratio (20mm x 20mm) creates a balanced, compact slide table for medium-force guided operations. The dual rod ball bushing guide provides superior moment load resistance and positional accuracy compared to single-rod cylinders, eliminating the need for external guide rails in many applications. This makes the CXS series especially valuable in clean room environments where minimizing component count reduces particle generation sources. Typical applications include inspection probe positioning, test fixture actuation, component placement with orientation control, and automated station transfers.

The CXSL20-20 provides 78% more force than the CXSL15 at the same stroke length, handling heavier payloads while maintaining precision guided motion. For plain bearing guide at lower cost, specify CXSM20-20 (M = slide bearing). For longer strokes, CXS 20mm variants are available to 50mm and beyond. For the next force step up, the CXSL32 delivers 32mm bore force in the slide table platform. The Y7PWSAPC option package includes pre-configured switches and connectors. Clean series (10-) fluorine grease, Particle Grade 1. RoHS compliant.
