Essential Robot Products, Inc. Product
JOULIN invented and perfected a suction cup insensitive to porosities in various patents. This product, now known world-wide as a "foam gripper" works according to the physical principles below:
- Foam grippers operate at a lower pressure, but higher flow than suction cups. The lifting capacity is generated by the larger surface in contact with the products.
- Suction cups generally require higher vacuum pressure with lower flow.
- The higher flow allows foam grippers to be less sensitive to contamination, porosity and irregular product geometry, than conventional suction cups.
-
The Advantages
- A significant air flow rate allows for the compensation of any residual leakage.
- The foam adapts to irregularities in the thickness and shape of the products.
- There is no need to change the settings when changing the configuration of the products to be lifted (number, shape, pallet, spacer, ...).
The foam gripper a multi-functional tool without adjustments, replacing several single-function EOATs on the same gripping hand.
