No can do, no can do

A number of problems can occur when working and processing wood, metal, ceramics or similar materials. Boards or panels are often not only uneven, warped or wavy, they can also have cracks, holes, holes, recesses or knotholes. In addition, there may be dust, sawdust, wood shavings or bark waste on their surface. Where suction plates reach their limits, surface grippers from euroTECH are used. The vacuum area grippers in the eT-Gripper series effortlessly handle a wide variety of materials, dimensions and surfaces. 

Area grippers from the eT-Gripper series from euroTECH are predestined for applications in which loads with different surfaces, lengths, widths and/or undefined pick-up positions have to be handled. Loads with a wide variety of characteristics can be picked up one after the other without the need for conversion. It is also possible to pick up rough-sawn, dusty loads. This makes eT grippers particularly suitable for use in sawmills or the timber and furniture industry. "Even lifting several different parts at the same time is no problem for an eT-Gripper," explains Sales Manager Michael Renger. "Whether it's a row of tins, loose boards lying next to each other or parts of different shapes and sizes." 

"Depending on the application, an area gripper is equipped with either a suction mat or several bellows suction cups and is then able to adapt perfectly to the load," says Renger. Whether an eT-Gripper is equipped with a suction mat or with bellows suction pads depends on the basic requirements. If the loads to be lifted are heavily structured, rough-sawn or porous, a suction mat is selected. This ensures a vacuum-tight connection between the load and the gripper by sealing the rough surface and at the same time compensating for the height differences of the load. Different hole patterns in the suction mats and material thicknesses of 10 to 30 millimetres allow the area gripper to be adapted even better to the respective application. The suction mats, which are made of EPDM and other materials, are available in various qualities with open, semi-closed and closed cells. The suction mats are equipped with an easily removable, self-adhesive film for quick replacement in the event of wear. 

If the loads to be lifted are not structured, are thin or unstable, small bellows suction cups are usually used for the area grippers. These create the required stability for thin, fragile panels. The suction carpet made from the bellows suction cups used is less prone to wear than a suction mat. In addition, a single worn suction pad can be replaced more quickly than an entire mat. This in turn not only saves time but also enormous costs and is therefore even more sustainable and maintenance-friendly. 

The surface grippers from euroTECH can facilitate many processes in industry, trade and logistics. They can be used on robots and in gantries as well as on lifting devices. This can save a lot of time at various points in the manufacturing process, e.g. when packing, loading, palletizing, picking or sorting.

The maintenance-friendly eT grippers have a modular design, making all components easily accessible. This means that the surface grippers, which are made from material-saving light metal profiles, can be opened and cleaned with little effort. This not only increases the service life, but also guarantees hygienic, clean lifting. Subsequent conversion from suction carpet to suction mat or vice versa is also possible without any problems thanks to the modular design.  

The high quality of materials and workmanship as well as sophisticated technology stand for reliability and durability. The modular and clear device design with only a few components and low wear tendency makes the vacuum grippers from euroTECH efficient tools in handling technology.

euroTECH offers a wide range of suitable blowers, vacuum pumps and ejectors for vacuum generation. Optimally selected vacuum generators ensure that sufficient holding power is always available.
