Switches and Monitoring

Sections, crossbeams and connectors
These elements are used to build the basic structure of a vacuum gripping system. To reduce
the number of hoses, you can build the sections as vacuum distributors with end covers and
sealing frames.
Filters and Connections
Holders and adapters
The suction cups are attached to the basic structure or the traverse with holders and adapters.
Different types of aluminium sections or square and round tubes are available.
Spring plunger Services
Spring plungers are used to compensate height differences of workpieces. They also cushion
the impact of the suction cup and allow handling of fragile workpieces.

Jointed mountings
Jointed mountings provide a better adaption of the suction cup to the workpiece due to the Contact
design of Flexolink FLK and ball joint KGL that can be swiveled in all directions.
