Applications and Suitable Workpieces
VBU Silicone Vacuum Suction Cups & Fittings: Bellows suction cups provide vertical stroke, damping and contour adaptation for parts with height variation, curvature or sensitive surfaces.
Recommended applications
- Curved or slightly uneven plastic parts, cartons, packaged goods, formed panels, glass and general industrial components.
- Mold unloading, machine tending, sorting, assembly and robotic pick-and-place where gentle contact is required.
- Multiple-cup grippers handling parts with small differences in height or position.
Model and selection notes
- VBU35, VBU45 and VBU55 identify cup size. Cup-only, high-specification and G1/8 or G1/4 fitting variants must be matched by full code.
- More bellows layers provide greater stroke and height compensation but can allow more lateral movement; select the profile for the required stability.
- Use the exact model dimensions and thread configuration shown in the product image when matching an existing holder.
- Holding force depends on sealing area, vacuum level, surface condition, acceleration and safety factor; test the actual workpiece.
