Customizing the Unigripper base Below are the main parameters that are customized in the UniGripper base plate. Selecting the right configuration for all parameters ensures a good function that lasts for many years and minimum maintenance needed. Valve Design Valve Pitch Outer Dimensions Large enough to get a secure grip of all products to be lifted. Small enough to avoid collisions with other equipment or fitting into boxes or other containers. Selected carefully to get a good distribution of vacuum force and securing enough active valves also on the smallest objects to be handled. The...

Ejectors benefit from being easy to install as well as having lower investment cost for small to mid-size gripper, provided a compressor is already available in the factory. UniGripper ejectors are assembled into housings in three different sizes, which in turn can be configured with one or more active Venturi cartridges. When...

Side Channel Blowers Side channel blowers use a fan wheel to remove air from the inlet and push the air out at the exhaust, thus creating vacuum in a gripper connected to the inlet. Compared to other blower kinds, side channel blowers are cost-effective blowers that generate high vacuum flows from atmospheric pressure to medium-deep vacuum levels, which is the ideal depth for most gripper applications. UniGripper works with leading manufacturers of side channel blowers to provide high quality blowers in different sizes depending on application. Side channel blowers are mainly beneficial for...

Partial Layer Handling Slip-Sheets Shrink-Wrapps Efficient ZonesQuick Pick'n'Place Chambers Palletizing using vacuum grippers provides a storageand cost-effective solution for creating pallet patterns for different products at the same time and same place as palletizing is achieved. Grippers can be designed to handle anything from single cases to semi layers. By dividing the gripper into zones, vacuum can be applied at some areas of the gripper surface while other parts are inactive. Such solutions caters for optimized cycles as the gripper can pick a full row of cases and the release them...
