J Schmalz’s system for the modular design of vacuum end effectors (VEE) comprises different individual parts which can be combined using configuration software to form an individual gripper.
The company claims that the system, which is available from Millsom Materials Handling, can save time and money when constructing a gripper for packaging machines when compared to conventional design and manufacture.
All elements of the modular VEE system are made of FDA and BfR-compliant polyphenylsulfone (PPSU). The surfaces of the elements are easy to clean and are resistant to alkaline cleaning agents. They are suitable for both the packaging and food processing industries.
