New Packaging Suction Cups - High Process Safety - Long Lifetime - Samples for free!

Made of the specially developed material Elastodur, these cups are designed to be extremely durable. Elastodur has the advantage of lasting 3 times as long as the commonly used material, Perbunan (NBR).

The suction cup’s reinforced main body and integrated support ribs on the suction surface guarantee maximum suction power and stability. With the bellows suction cups, additional interleaving of the sealing lip and the corrugation ensures even greater stability. Even with high lateral loads in dynamic handling processes, lateral force can be absorbed effectively.   

All models in the new series of packaging suction cups feature a soft and extremely flexible sealing lip. This ensures high process reliability, as the suction cups fit diverse types of cardboard boxes and rigid, packaged products and provides optimal sealing for a broad range of work pieces.

The vacuum suction cups are offered as flat suction cup model (SPF) and as two bellows suction cup models with 1.5 corrugations in either round (SPB1) or oval (SPOB1) shapes. The suction cups are available with diameters of 20 to 60 mm, dimensions of 60 x 20 mm to 150 x 60 mm and either male or female threads.   Besides handling cardboard boxes and rigid packaged products the cups are also suitable for palletizing/depalletizing in handling systems and for heavy-duty applications, that is, for handling large, heavy cardboard boxes as part of an automated packaging process.

Schmalz now offers free samples of its new packaging cups. Customers can equip one packaging machine with cups for free. Call (919) 713-0880.
