Feature

Suction cups provide an easy, inexpensive, and - above all - reliable technique for moving different products and materials; fragile, awkward, compact or porous objects with flat, spherical, angled, curved or uneven surfaces. Suction cups can handle objects weighing from a few grams to several hundred kilograms.

Every application requires a particular design of suction cup. The variations described here will cover virtually any need.

UNIVERSAL SUCTION CUP

For handling objects with flat or slightly curved surfaces.

SUCTION CUP WITH SHORT BELLOWS

Several short bellows cups in one lifting device can handle objects with height differences and varying shapes. The bellows also provide a slight lifting movement to separate thin items.

SUCTION CUP WITH LONG BELLOWS

The same applications as for short bellows but can cope with greater differences in levels due to the longer lifting movement. Not suitable for use with deep vacuum levels. Can be equipped with reinforcement fings of polyamide to give extra stability.

FLAT SUCTION CUP WITH CLEATS

Suitable for flat objects such as cardboard, sheet metal and porous materials. The cleats stop deformation by preventing suction of the object into the cup. the suction cup has good stability and very little movement. Also suitable when lifting vertically as the cleats increasefriction.

DEEP SUCTION CUP

Used for curved and irregular surfaces. Can lift even over corners and edges. Not suitable for use on flat surfaces.

FLAT, CONCAVE SUCTION CUP WITH CLEATS

Designed for flat and curved surfaces. A typical application is the feeding of sheet metal into a press too. The slightly curved shape and internal cleats provide a good grip and the strengthened lip extends the life of the cup considerably. Also available in oval shape for oblong objects.

MP Sponge type cup

Designed for flat and curved surfaces. Used for handling rough and uneven surfaces and when used with ball joint option and level spring option can accommodate very unlevel and uneven surfaces.
