Particularly in the woodworking industry, the automation of production processes with the aid of vacuum is becoming increasingly important. At the same time, the handling of wooden workpieces presents major challenges to vacuum gripping technology. In order to meet these challenges, Schmalz now introduces a new generation of suction pads:

Flat suction pads - the specialists for the woodworking sector

The main highlights at a glance:

• Soft sealing lip
• Sealing lip with inner sealing edge
• Special structure of the bottom of the suction pad
• Optionally available with dirt sieve and foam-rubber insert
   

Your benefits:

• Optimal adaptation to uneven workpiece surfaces
• Very good sealing on rough surfaces
• Suitable for very dynamic movements and short cycle times
• Optimal adaptation to any application (such as dusty surroundings or very rough workpiece surfaces) 

Applications:

• Handling of furniture elements, parquet strips and blocks, laminated and unlaminated chipboard panels, etc.
• Handling of rough-sawn wood

Construction:

The flat suction pads SHFN consist of the suction pad SHF and a connection nipple. The suction pad is mounted directly on the nipple. The sealing lip and, in particular, the inner sealing edge ensure better sealing to rough surfaces. The ribs on the top of the suction pad provide better stability.

Optionally, an additional foam-rubber sealing ring can be fitted.
