MGPL12-30Z Applications
The 30 mm stroke positions the SMC MGPL1230Z as the mid-travel option in the MGPL12 range, long enough to lift a part clear of a nest yet still compact on the machine frame. It is used in electronics assembly, small-parts handling, and packaging machinery. Typical applications include vertical lift stations, workpiece clamping, and product transfer between conveyors. 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.
