You can access the axes of the cylinder with the built-in transform variables forward, up, right, etc.

To translate along the +x axis of the cylinder, for instance, you could do the following:

transform.position += cylinderTransform.forward * distanceToTravel;

Good luck.

 float distanceToTravelX ,distanceToTravelY,distanceToTravelZ;
     distanceToTravelX = 1f;
     distanceToTravelY = 1f;
     distanceToTravelZ = 1f;
     Vector3 dir ;
     dir = target.forward * distanceToTravelZ + target.up * distanceToTravelY+ target.right * distanceToTravelX;
     transform.Translate(dir * Time.deltaTime);
 Is it good ?
