The new VacuGrip FX range - the flexible large-area vacuum grippers for every handling task

Schmalz present their new series of large-area vacuum grippers for use in handling devices or industrial robots. This range, which is partly based on the modular system of the successful vacuum-gripper series VacuGrip FX 35, has been expanded and optimised.

Equipped with the powerful multi-stage ejector SEM, the VacuGrip FX generates a high vacuum on almost any surface, regardless of whether it is smooth or rough, airtight or porous!

The modular design permits several large-area vacuum grippers to be combined to form a complete system which matches your handling task.

The extremely quick replacement of the foam suction mats guarantees maximum flexibility.


The highlights at a glance:

- Very light construction

- Flexible modular system

- System solutions delivered ready for connection

- Minimum maintenance costs


The large-area grippers are available with two different operating principles which permit optimal customisation of the gripper systems for various handling tasks. Each variant is also available with or without solenoid valves and in three different sizes.


FX-SV - maximum holding force on the surface available for gripping


The new diaphragm technology ensures that vacuum apertures which are not in contact with the workpiece are closed automatically. The vacuum is thus present only at the vacuum apertures which actually participate in the generation of the holding force.
The suction capacity of the vacuum generator is thus utilised extremely efficiently at the active vacuum apertures. this innovative, self-controlled valve technology ensures that the maximum possible holding force – which depends on the porosity of the workpiece to be handled –is generated. For this, between 30% and 50% of the suction area must be in contact with the workpiece.


FX-SW - maximum flexibility regardless of the number of active vacuum apertures


The large-area vacuum grippers of this series guarantee maximum flexibility of the gripper system, regardless of how many vacuum apertures are in contact with the workpiece.

The suction surface of this version has a large number of individual vacuum apertures, each of which is connected via a flow resistor to a vacuum chamber. Due to this design, the holding force increases continuously as more and more apertures are in use, since the amount of leakage air is reduced accordingly.
