Suction cups
Suction cups are used in industrial automation technology to lift and transport objects of all kinds, especially in vacuum systems. They form the interface between the machine and the workpiece. To ensure that a workpiece can be gripped securely, it is important to select suction cups that match the material properties of the workpiece in question. For example, some suction cups are particularly suitable for use at high temperatures, while others are highly resistant to heavy contamination.

Suction cups for use in industry from Festo
Basically, industrial suction cups are available either in a round or oval shape and with or without protective bellows. Round suction cups are particularly well suited for handling flat workpieces. Suction cups with an oval shape, on the other hand, are used more for handling narrow and elongated workpieces. Festo suction cups are available in many different diameters and therefore offer the right solution for transporting workpieces with a wide range of weights, surfaces and shapes.

Suction cups with connector VAS, VASB
This suction cup from the VAS(B) series comes in 11 different diameters and is therefore well suited to transporting workpieces with a wide range of weights, surfaces and shapes. It is available in a round version or as a variant with protective bellows made of nitrile rubber, polyurethane or silicone. Nitrile rubber as a material can be used almost anywhere, while polyurethane is particularly impressive because of its long service life as well as its material that is soft and smooth in operation. Silicone, on the other hand, is very temperature-resistant and is suitable for use in the food industry.
