High-payload pneumatic vacuum gripper
OnRobot VGP30 is an ideal choice for heavier payload demand palletizing due to its robust, ready-to-deploy design and compatibility with all major robot brands. It’s built for flexibility in high-mix applications, featuring intelligent vacuum control that adjusts to various box sizes and layers while optimizing energy usage. With two independent vacuum channels, it optimizes throughput and lowers costs by reducing air consumption, making it a cost-effective solution to any automated palletizing setup.
OnRobot VGP30 is a high-performance, pneumatic vacuum gripper specifically designed to automate demanding palletizing and material handling applications with payloads up to 30 kg. Utilizing external air supply, the VGP30 delivers a powerful air flow capacity of 440 L/min. with an intelligent vacuum control system that makes it ideal for high-mix demanding applications.
With all necessary hardware and software included, the VGP30 offers true plug-and-play deployment for rapid integration with major robot brands, enabling manufacturers to start operations right out of the box. The gripper’s dual-channel system allows independent control of its two vacuum channels, so users can tailor its powerful suction to suit diverse tasks, ensuring both precise and efficient handling.
The VGP30’s intelligent vacuum control system automatically adjusts the vacuum flow based on the required levels defined for each application, delivering consistent performance across multiple items in a single operation. This adaptability eliminates the need for multiple gripper setups and minimizes setup time. With its high-powered vacuum flow, the VGP30 can easily handle porous and irregularly shaped objects, making it a versatile choice for various packaging materials and further streamlining material handling operations.
Additionally, the VGP30 offers an optional continuous monitoring feature that provides real-time feedback on air flow. In the event of an interruption, the system alerts users with an instant pop-up notification in the gripper software, allowing for quick response and minimizing downtime. Despite its power, the VGP30 has a lightweight, efficient design, weighing only 3.1 kg. This combination of strength, flexibility, and optimal design makes the VGP30 a robust and adaptable solution for manufacturers looking to optimize their palletizing and material handling workflows.
