VGC10
Advantages and Features of VGC10
Based on the award-winning VC10 electric vacuum gripper, the VCC10 is smaller and lighter than its predecessor, without compromising payload capacity. It is a highly customizable end-of-arm tool that allows manufacturers to focus on their specific applications rather than the complexities of the robot itself. This compact gripper is ideally suited for confined environments and smaller robotic arms, while still delivering an impressive payload capacity. Despite its compact dimensions, this end-of-arm tool is capable of lifting weights of up to 15 kg (35 lbs).
◆Payload 15 kg (35 lb) Capable of lifting objects weighing up to 15 kg | ◆Compact, lightweight, and powerful Grasp and move a wide variety of small, multi-dimensional, and heavy objects—even when using robotic arms with lighter payload capacities. | ◆Configurable suction cups The suction cups can be easily replaced to suit your application requirements. | ◆Unlimited Customization Easily swappable suction cup options, with the ability to add or replace suction cups to meet highly specific application requirements. |
◆Independent air channels for dual-gripping applications Independently control the left and right sides of the vacuum gripper to further increase production line efficiency. | ◆Integrated Software This gripper comes with pre-integrated software that is easy to install and program, allowing even staff without a technical background to set it up | ◆Built-in electric vacuum dust extractor No external air supply required; saves on maintenance costs |
The VGC10 is designed to allow users to easily create their own adapter plates, enabling a variety of different configuration options. The dimensions required for fabricating a custom adapter plate are shown in the figure below.
This quick-connect fitting is used to attach 4 mm vacuum tubing, enabling the creation of customized configurations to meet remote vacuum requirements. In most cases, this size is sufficient for the pump within the fixture to generate the required level of vacuum.
Why choose the VGC10 electric vacuum gripper?
The VGC10 electric compact vacuum gripper offers infinite customization possibilities. It features interchangeable suction cup options, making it suitable for virtually any application. Smaller than the VG10, the VGC10 is designed to fit into confined spaces, thereby expanding your automation potential. Weighing only half as much as the VG10 while maintaining the same payload capacity, it enables even smaller robotic arms to lift objects that are small, irregularly shaped, or heavy. The VGC10 is equipped with two independently controlled air channels, allowing it to function as a dual gripper—capable of picking up and releasing items in a single operation—which further enhances efficiency and reduces cycle times. This compact electric gripper requires no external compressor or air supply it is easy to relocate, and its simple programming allows for quick and effortless redeployment, boosting
Seamlessly integrate with the robot of your choice.
High flexibility Can be configured into any shape to match various parts |
Easy to deploy, ideal for tight spaces Compact design, capable of operating in confined spaces |
Reduce operating costs No external compressed air required |
Gecko SP5
GeckoGripper brings innovative gecko-inspired adhesive gripping technology to small-footprint applications that were previously impossible to automate. This gecko-inspired adhesive technology enables precise, mark-free gripping—even on perforated items like circuit boards or shiny surfaces—without the need for any cleaning process. Three distinct GeckoGripper models (SP1, SP3, and SP5)—named according to their payload capacity in kilograms—are designed for use with leading small-scale robots and collaborative robots (cobots).
The Gecko SP5 has a payload capacity of up to 5 kg.
The compact, single-pad design allows for easy access to workpieces, even in confined spaces. Requiring neither electronics nor an air supply, the GeckoGripper is a cost-effective, truly plug-and-play solution that integrates seamlessly with the robot of your choice.
