Fast Vacuum Gripping Without Compressed Air
For decades, vacuum gripping in automated processes has been closely associated with compressed air. Our G-VAC grippers take a different approach: They generate and maintain the necessary vacuum directly at the gripper—without an ejector or a pneumatic supply.
All G-VAC models are designed for fast gripping and release cycles. They differ in how the vacuum is generated or stabilized and in the amount of installation space available.
