Vacuum Suction Spiders SSP-FMC

Applications

• Linking robots in presses and bending centers, automating plastic machines, injection-mould machines and deep drawing machines, working centers in wood/plastic sector, water jet


• machines, laser machines and punching/nipple machines


• Order picking in storage and distribution centers to portal or industrial robots


• Metal sections, blanks, stone, sheet materials, car body parts, glass and ceramic components, solar panels as well as nonrigid workpieces, etc.

Our highlights...	Your benefits...
• Modular component gripping system consisting of various individual coordinated components	> Fast and cost-effective struc - ture of complete gripping systems for minimal cycle times and the highest degree of process safety
• Combination of various gripping principles (vacuum, mechanical, magnet etc.)	> Flexible adaptation to the relevant requirement saving time and high process costs
• Standard solutions made from aluminium, steel pipe elements and plastic elements	> Low weight and high acceleration using an optimum selection of materials
• Intelligent valve modules for unused suction pads	> Highly modern gripping technology saves time when removing the workpieces

Basic version

1. Flange Module

slidable adjustment

2. Longitudinal Cross Arm

Longitudinal cross arm is available in the standard lengths of 2,500 mm, 4,000 mm and 6,000 mm. Special lengths can be manufactured variable (min. 800 mm; max. 6,000 mm)

3. Vacuum Distributor

Variable available with one to five connections.

4. Large-area gripper connection

The connection is flexible and spring-mounted. Optimized for a stroke of 25 mm (optional 50 mm or 90 mm)

5. Large-area grippers

By default the large-area grippers FMC are used. The have a low height and weight and operate with an external vacuum generator. Optionally the large-area grippers FXC with an integrated vacuum generator can be used

6. Vacuum generator

Vacuum blowers with reversing

Comfort version

1. Flange module

slidable adjustment

2. Longitudinal cross arm with vacuum distribution

Longitudinal cross arm is available in the standard lengths of 2,500 mm, 4,000 mm and 6,000 mm. Special lengths can be manufactured variable (min. 800 mm; max. 6,000 mm)

3. Filter unit

Dust filter with a separation efficiency close to 100%

4. Peeling unit

• Separation of porous and air-tight pieces


• Corner lifting of 50 mm, stroke force = 2700 N

5. Electric terminal boxes

With Harting connection plug (24-pole)

6. Valve unit

Optimal adjustment of blower output and suction capacity to the workpiece handled

7. Sensor unit

Opto-electric sensors with background suppression

• for checking whether workpieces are stuck [7.1]


• vacuum switch for optimising cycle times [7.2]

8. Large-area gripper connection

The connection is flexible and spring-mounted. Optimized for a stroke of 25 mm (optional 50 mm or 90 mm)

9. Large-area grippers with separation function

By default the large-area grippers FMC are used. The have a low height and weight and operate with an external vacuum generator. Optionally the large-area grippers FXC with an integrated vacuum generator can be used.

The optional separation function, allows layerwise handling of air-permeable work pieces. Separation pulse flows through the sheets and prevents several sheets from sticking together when the top sheet is gripped.
