The SMC ZGS Series Vacuum Clamping System (Sponge Type) is a fully integrated solution designed for efficient and reliable gripping of delicate, uneven, or porous surfaces. Featuring a sponge foam pad, it ensures uniform vacuum distribution, making it ideal for applications requiring gentle yet secure material handling. Compatible with leading collaborative robots, this system simplifies setup and operation, enhancing automation efficiency.
The SMC ZGS Series Vacuum Clamping System (Sponge Type) offers a high-performance solution for securely gripping delicate, uneven, or porous surfaces without causing damage. Its soft, porous foam pad ensures uniform vacuum distribution, making it ideal for applications requiring gentle yet reliable material handling.
Key Features:
Integrated Design: Combines all necessary components—ejector, supply valve, release valve, silencer, pressure switch, and robot flange—into a single unit for easy installation and operation.
Foam Options: Available in sizes of 400mm x 240mm, 300mm x 180mm, and 200mm x 120mm, with foam thicknesses of 20mm or 30mm to suit various workpiece shapes and sizes.
High Suction Force: Provides lifting forces up to 2144 N at -75 kPa, ensuring strong and reliable gripping.
Energy Efficient: Features a newly designed ejector that reduces air consumption by up to 15% compared to previous models, contributing to lower operating costs and reduced COâ‚‚ emissions.
Built-in Pressure Switch: Includes a pressure switch with selectable detection ports, allowing for precise monitoring of vacuum levels.
Broad Compatibility: Compatible with collaborative robots from Universal Robots, Omron/TECHMAN Robot, FANUC, and Yaskawa Electric, facilitating seamless integration into existing automation systems.
Easy Tool Changing: Equipped with a common tool changer for quick and easy replacement of the vacuum gripper, minimizing downtime during maintenance.
