Vacuum Lifting with the VUOTOTECNICA Octopus System.

OCTOPUS Vacuum Gripping System  The OCTOPUS Vacuum Gripping System has been developed to meet the growing demand for greater flexibility in robotic palletising and industrial vacuum handling applications. Designed for maximum versatility, the OCTOPUS system can securely grip objects of almost any shape, size, or material, provided they are not excessively porous. Unlike conventional vacuum grippers, it requires no repositioning or replacement of suction cups, even when the contact area represents as little as 5% of the total suction plate surface. The maximum lifting capacity depends on the effective sealing area between the load and the suction plate. Standard System...

Vacuum Pump and LP Blowing Station for the Printing Industry

AS Suction and Blowing System The AS Suction and Blowing System has been developed to meet the demanding paper handling requirements of the printing industry. It provides a compact, efficient, and reliable solution for generating both vacuum and blowing air throughout the printing process. By integrating all pumps, controls, and adjustment components into a single unit, the AS system offers improved performance, simplified installation, and easy operation. Key Benefits Compact, all-in-one design with pumps and controls housed in a single cabinet. Improved print quality through individually controlled suction and blowing pumps. Increased productivity by allowing each pump to be independently...

Vacuum Cylinders

Vacuum-Operated Cylinders The cylinders described on this page are vacuum operated and are designed to provide reliable linear movement using differential air pressure. When a vacuum is applied to the front chamber of the cylinder, the integrated piston rod extends by overcoming the opposing spring force. This movement is generated by atmospheric pressure acting on the rear face of the piston, with air entering the rear chamber through the hollow piston rod. The greater the pressure difference between the evacuated front chamber and the atmospheric rear chamber, the greater the piston thrust force. The piston rod returns to its initial...

Why is a Full bore vacuum valve so important?

The use of vacuum valves in industrial vacuum systems is essential for many applications, including high-speed pick-and-place systems, vacuum forming, and vacuum holding. Selecting the correct valve is critical to achieving a reliable, efficient, and responsive system. 2-way and 3-way vacuum solenoid valves are commonly used to control vacuum. A 2-way valve is typically used to isolate and maintain vacuum within an application, while a 3-way valve switches the vacuum off and vents the system to atmosphere, allowing products to be released quickly and efficiently. Many valves currently used in vacuum systems are originally designed as pneumatic valves and then...
