MGPM16-20Z Applications
The short 20 mm stroke of the SMC MGPM1620Z makes it a natural fit for clamping and part-holding stations where travel is measured in millimetres. It is used in fixture clamping on welding jigs, workpiece location in CNC cells, and pin-stop indexing on small conveyors. Because the guide plate and slide bearings absorb side load directly, the cylinder holds position accurately against clamping reaction forces without transmitting that load into the piston rod.
