SMC has redesigned the CQ2 compact cylinder with a new body, making it possible to mount auto switches on any of the 4 surfaces, depending on the installation conditions.  Auto switch mounting grooves have replaced the CQ2's mounting rails, preventing projection of auto switches and improving ease and safety of work.

The CQS compact cylinder is available for those small bore cylinder applications where saving space is a concern. While sharing many of the outstanding features of the (N)CQ2 series, the CQS offers standard long strokes (up to 300mm) in four bore sizes from 12 to 25mm. Long stroke versions incorporate a wear band and thicker piston to handle the increased bearing needs of the longer strokes. Both switch capable and non-switch capable body styles are the same, and switches can be mounted on three (12-16 bore) and four (20-25 bore) sides. An increased side load version (CQS*S) is available for more demanding applications.

Series CG1 precision air cylinder has 8 bore sizes and can meet any application need. The tube is impact extruded aluminum to produce an extraordinarily smooth finish, allow low break-away pressure and smooth stroke action. Eight mounting options are available. Auto switch capable.

The CQM is a compact cylinder integrated with a guide rod and plate. The series is available in 12, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40 and 50mm bore sizes with the same mounting dimensions as the CQ2. The guide rod and plate allow work to be directly mounted. The CQM series offers 4 times the lateral load resistance of the CQ2K and non-rotating accuracy of ±0.2°.

The CQU series was designed to be a lightweight, compact plate type cylinder.  The width is up to 40% smaller when compared to SMC's CQ2 series, and the full length has been reduced up to 15% compared to SMC's MU series cylinder with 30mm stroke.  The series is available in bore sizes 20mm, 25mm, 32mm, and 40mm.  Auto switches can be mounted without removing mounting brackets.  It is possible to mount a small auto switch in 4 directions.  CQU mountings include through hole/double end tapped (standard), a vertical foot bracket, horizontal foot bracket, and double clevis.
