MGPL12-20Z Applications
The 20 mm stroke gives the SMC MGPL1220Z twice the travel of the 10 mm version while keeping the same 12 mm bore and mounting footprint, a common choice for transfer moves that clear a fixture edge. It is used in electronics assembly, small-parts handling, and packaging machinery. Typical applications include component transfer, workpiece clamping, and gate and diverter actuation. The ball bushing bearing gives low friction and high non-rotating accuracy in a compact envelope, so the cylinder carries eccentric loads directly without an external guide.
