End-of-arm-tooling vacuum systems provide millisecond attach-and-release

A line of micro-miniature Venturi Vacuum Pumps, suspensions, and vacuum cups for fast attach-and-release EOAT (end-of-arm-tooling) in automation systems is now available.

Anver JV Series Venturi Vacuum Pumps, suspensions, and cups are lightweight and can be located close to the pick-up point to provide millisecond attach-and-release. The pumps can be positioned close together, suspensions are offered in many sizes and fittings, and the suction cups come in a variety of materials including ESD-safe NomaStat.

Anver JV Series Venturi Vacuum Pumps feature thermoplastic construction, weigh only 16 grams, measure 1” x 1.69”, and can achieve 24”Hg vacuum with either .050 or 0.74 SCFM flow rates, depending upon the model. Suction cups for small robotic EOAT systems are offered in 3 to 8 mm O.D. sizes in 0.5 mm increments and are offered in flat or bellows styles.

Anver JV Series Venturi Vacuum Pumps, suspensions, and cups are priced according to size, material, and quantity; available from stock.
