Vacuum Suction Pads for Handling Sheet Metal

Schmalz India Pvt Ltd offers new Vacuum Suction Pads for Handling Sheet Metal at high speeds. The Schmalz SAXM series of suction pads, help optimise handling performance of automotive sheet metal parts. Whether in the pressing plant or as part of bodyshell work – automation processes in the automobile industry are becoming more and more complex: Quicker cycles, higher output quantities and a wide range of workpiece outlines require flexible solutions in the area of handling and supply. Compared to the existing range of flat suction pads, the high-speed SAXM suction pads have a considerably increased suction pad stroke that allows the suction pads to adjust optimally to contoured workpieces. Furthermore, the suction pad geometry offers all the advantages that are required for the highly dynamic handling of parts: minimal suction times, high intrinsic stability while suction is applied and the absorption of extreme holding and lateral forces, even with oiled surfaces. The use of a cutting-edge and innovative material makes the suction pads extremely resistant to wear, even when subjected to extreme environmental conditions such as ozone or aggressive drawing oils. SAXM vacuum suction pads are available in sizes with diameters from 30 mm through 125 mm. With various connections (female thread, male thread, quick connectors), they can be adapted easily to all common tooling systems. The modular design of the suction pads minimises purchase costs and make it possible to quickly replace damaged components. Schmalz accommodates the demand for environmentally friendly products by producing them in such a way that the materials of the individual components can be easily separated, 100% correctly sorted and recycled.

The company also offers Mechanical Vacuum Switches, Vacuum Tube Lifter, Double-Blank Detection Unit, Vacuum Generators with Integrated IO-Link, Glass Sheet Handling System, etc.
