Efficiency Thanks to Modular Design

The vacuum gripping system “Vacuum Spider SSP” ensures a quick and cost-effective configuration.

Large-area vacuum gripping systems are used in many different industries for many material-flow applications today.
In order to configure the gripping systems in a quicker, more efficient and more cost-effective way, Schmalz developed a special modular component system.

  • The Vacuum Spider SSP


Standardised vacuum components now enable the quick realisation of individual gripper solutions. These ensure maximum efficiency and guarantee high flexibility when carrying out automated handling processes such as commissioning, re-stacking, palletising, depalletising and other tasks of this type.
 



Vacuum Spider SSP
Vacuum Spider SSP
Standardised modular component gripping system from which systems can be built-up and configured quickly and cost-effectively.


Our highlights – your benefits
 
> Modular component gripping system consisting of individual coordinated components

  • Quick and cost-effective assembly for minimal cycle times and high process safety


> Intelligent valve technology for unused suction cells

  • Secure gripping of work pieces with variable dimensions and/or undefined position


> Innovative separation function

  • Reliable separation of work pieces stuck together due to adhesion or porosity


> Standardised, robust complete grippers

  • Reliable, cost-effective and easily installable solution


Vacuum Spider SSP
Robust complete system
The modular system offers solutions that are reliable, cost-effective and easy to install.

Innovative separation function
Separation function
The separation function enables, for example, the reliable and easy separation of porous particle boards.


Use

  • Handling of work pieces with a wide range of dimensions and/or undefined position
  • Handling of work pieces with gaps
  • Automated palletising/depalletising of sheet materials (wood, metal, plastic), washers, blanks, glass, solar panels, large cardboard boxes


Vacuum Spider SSP
Pure flexibility...
The handling of a wide range of products becomes child’s play!


Structure

  • Modular component system consisting of coordinated components and assemblies for defined sized and working load ranges
  • Depending on the handling task, other gripping principles can be used as gripping elements in addition to large-area grippers (e.g. individual suction pads, mechanical grippers, magnetic grippers or needle grippers).
     
  • Modular structure
    • Basic version consisting of a variably movable flange module, longitudinal cross arm, vacuum distributor, flexible, spring-mounted suction elements as well as an optional vacuum generator
    • The comfort version is additionally equipped with a separation unit, valve unit, sensor unit and electrical terminal boxes




System elements

Opto-electronic sensors and switches serve to control the work piece and cycle time optimisation.

Filters and valves
Filters and valves
Valves ensure optimal adjustment of the suction power. Filters can also be integrated optionally.
