PBG vacuum pads feature a 1-1/2" bellows type cup intended for curved, corrugated, lightly textured surfaces and flexible product. Cup sizes: 10 to 150 mm
These cups are for curved, corrugated, lightly textured surfaces and flexible product. Under vacuum, the bellow cup will collapse on contact and lift the product for a short distance. This inherent performance facilitates lifting and unstacking operations by breaking the vacuum between stacked product. The bellow style adds level compensation for applications that have inconsistent stack heights or uneven surfaces. The inclusive 30-degree rotation of the bellow helps maintain the vacuum seal when lifting sheet products that flex. Because of its shape however the bellows suction cup is not very well suitable for applications involving lifting vertical surfaces.
