ZP2-B Series Flat Vacuum Suction Cups and Mounting Fittings

ZP2A fitting groups listed for ZP2-B cups

This selector separates ZP2-B cup options from ZP2A mounting fittings. Use the stated cup group to narrow the fitting choice, then compare the exact drawing.

M02 and M06 share a listed cup group, but this does not make their mounting connections interchangeable. Confirm whether the order needs a cup, a fitting or both; do not infer a complete assembly from a fitting-only selection.

Applications and Suitable Workpieces

ZP2-B MT models are thin flat vacuum cups with a grooved contact surface. They are intended for automated handling where reducing deformation of thin material is important.

Recommended applications by model

• ZP2-B...MTS — Silicone: thin metal sheets, plastic film, flexible packaging material, labels, paper and other clean, smooth, non-porous thin workpieces. Silicone is preferred when greater temperature flexibility or a cleaner contact material is required.
• ZP2-B...MTN — Nitrile rubber: thin steel or aluminum sheets, plastic sheet, coated parts and general industrial workpieces on dry or lightly oily surfaces where wear resistance is useful.
• H5, B5 and other mounting fittings: select the connection style to match the vacuum holder or machine interface; the fitting does not change the cup's workpiece suitability.

Selection notes

• Best suited to flat, smooth and non-porous surfaces. The thin flat profile helps limit local deformation during suction.
• Not recommended as the sole lifting element for heavy workpieces or workpieces that apply a large side load.
• Very thin film can wrinkle depending on thickness and vacuum level; test the actual material before production use.
• Holding force depends on cup diameter, vacuum level, surface finish, acceleration, mounting direction and safety factor.
