OEM Factory Direct CP96 Series ISO 15552 Pneumatic Cylinder Supplier Double-Acting Single Rod Air Cylinder Compatible With SMC

Product Detailed Description:

Our CP96 Series represents the next generation of ISO standard actuators. Designed for seamless international interchangeability, the CP96 utilizes a lightweight aluminum profile body that allows for the flush mounting of auto-switches, protecting them from mechanical damage. The standout feature is its Double Cushioning System, which combines adjustable air cushions with elastic bumper cushions to significantly reduce impact noise and end-of-stroke vibration. With bore sizes from 32mm to 100mm and a maximum stroke of 2000mm, the CP96 is engineered for high-speed industrial environments (up to 1000mm/s) requiring long-term reliability and easy maintenance.

Product Advantages

• Profile Tube Design with Enclosed Tie Rods — Modern ISO 15552 profile tube body. Enclosed tie-rod construction prevents dust and debris ingress. Sleeker, cleaner aesthetic than exposed tie-rod designs. Up to 15% lighter than older C96 series.

• SMC CP96/C96 Series Fully Compatible — Identical mounting dimensions, port positions, and rod-end threads. True drop-in replacement for SMC CP96, CP96S, CP96N, C96, C96S, and C96N series — zero modification required.

• ISO 15552 / ISO 6431 / VDMA 24562 Compliant — International standard dimensions. Interchangeable with any ISO 15552 cylinder from Festo DNC/DNCB/DSBC, Airtac SC/SU, Parker P1D, Bosch Rexroth CDT, CKD CMK2/SCA2, Norgren RA/8000, and other major brands.

• Six Bore Sizes: 32–125mm — Full medium-duty range. Forces from ~400N at 0.5 MPa (ø32 push) to ~6,100N at 0.5 MPa (ø125 push). Covers the vast majority of industrial automation applications.

• Standard Stroke up to 800mm — Long-stroke capability with precision profile tube bore for smooth travel and minimal stick-slip even at full extension.

• Adjustable Air Cushion (Both Ends) — Integrated pneumatic cushioning with needle-valve adjustment on extend and retract. Smooth end-of-stroke deceleration without external shock absorbers. Reduces cycle time and impact noise.

• Integrated Sensor Grooves — Profile tube includes built-in T-slot grooves for auto switch mounting. Clean, flush sensor installation without protruding brackets. Mount switches on multiple surfaces.

• Magnetic Piston Standard — Pre-installed magnetic ring. Compatible with D-M9, D-A9, D-F8, and equivalent reed/ solid-state auto switch series.

• Modular Design Platform — Standard type, non-rotating rod (guide rod), double rod (through-rod), dual stroke (telescoping), heat-resistant (–10 to 150°C), and low-speed variants all share common mounting dimensions and accessories.

• 16-Year Factory Expertise — Direct from Zhejiang Jinzhi Pneumatic Technology Co., Ltd. (AIRWORK). 100+ CNC machining centers, CE/ISO certified, shipped to 120+ countries, professional engineering support for custom solutions.

Application:

• Automotive Production Lines：

The CP96 is a staple in automotive body-in-white and assembly sections. Its ISO standard mounting and high-speed performance make it ideal for high-precision welding jigs, stamping transfers, and robotic arm auxiliary movements where downtime is not an option.

• High-Speed Packaging & Logistics：

In automated warehouses and conveyor systems, this cylinder handles rapid sorting, palletizing, and diverting tasks. The double cushioning system is critical here to minimize noise and mechanical shock during high-frequency cycles, protecting both the machine and the goods.

• General Machinery & Automation：

From woodworking to textile machinery, the CP96 provides reliable linear force for clamping, lifting, and feeding. The integrated sensor slots and wide range of mounting accessories (Clevis, Foot, Flange) allow for easy integration into diverse machine architectures.

Installation and Usage：

• Piping Preparation: Always flush air lines before connection to remove debris. Use a 5-micron filter-regulator to ensure clean, dry air.
• Mounting Alignment: Ensure the cylinder is perfectly aligned with the load. Side loads on the piston rod are the most common cause of premature seal failure.
• Cushion Adjustment: Adjust the cushion needle valve slowly from a closed position. Do not over-tighten the valve or open it more than 3 turns to prevent it from blowing out.
• Speed Control: Use flow control valves (meter-out) to regulate the speed. The maximum recommended speed is 1000 mm/s to ensure the air cushion can function effectively.

FAQ

Q1. Can the CP96 replace my current Festo or SMC ISO cylinder?

A1. Yes, it strictly follows ISO 15552 dimensions, making it a direct, 1:1 replacement for any standard-compliant brand.

Q2. What is the benefit of the "Double Cushion"?

A2. It uses air to slow the piston and a rubber bumper to absorb the final impact, resulting in much lower vibration and noise compared to standard air cushions.

Q3. Do you offer custom stroke lengths?

A3. Absolutely. While we have standard strokes (25-800mm), we can manufacture customized intermediate strokes up to 2000mm.

Q4. Which auto-switches are compatible with the CP96 grooves?

A4. It is designed for small, recessed sensors like the D-M9N, D-M9P, D-M9B, and their water-resistant variants.

Q5. Can this cylinder operate without lubrication?

A5. Yes, it is a "non-lube" type cylinder pre-greased at the factory. However, if you start using a lubricator, you must continue to use it.

Q6. Can it be used in high-temperature environments?

A6. The standard seals handle up to 70°C. For higher temperatures, we provide customized heat-resistant seals and rod boots.

Q7. What is the delivery time ?

A7.Normal model 1-3days,because we have ability to do the stock.For big order,it takes about 10-15days.

Q8. What is the payment term?

A8.We accept T/T, L/C, WESTERN UNION.

Q9.What is the recommended maintenance schedule?

A9.CP96 cylinders are factory pre-lubricated and designed for oil-free operation with clean, filtered compressed air.

Weekly: Visual check — no air leaks at ports or rod seal. Rod surface clean and undamaged. Cushion needle valves secure and not loose.

Monthly: Verify auto switch function and position. Check mounting bolt torque. Test cushion — adjust if end-of-stroke impact noise has increased.

Every 2 million cycles or 6 months: Inspect rod seal (wiper) for leakage. Check rod bushing for wear. Clean rod surface.

Every 5 million cycles or 12 months: Full seal kit replacement — piston seal, rod seal, wear ring, cushion seal. Inspect piston rod straightness and chrome surface. Clean and re-lubricate internal bore.
