Our video highlights VMECA’s V-Grip G130, fitted with VMECA vacuum suction cups, picking and placing packaged food. Simmatic has found ever growing success within the food packaging industry, mainly due to the difficult unpredictable nature of different gauges of thin plastics or foils, irregular shapes and sizes of food items and their packaging. We always have a food handling project ongoing through evaluation – it’s our specialty! Generally, food packaging need a trials-based solution, which we offer, so you can confidently develop around a known solution.

So why choose V-Gripping Systems?

VMECA’s V-Grips do not need to be completely covered – they will pick up even if only partially covered. By reducing contact between materials and moving parts, you reduce the wear and tear of the system, consequently prolonging the lifespan of the machinery and therefore your investment.
Using the right handling solutions not only increases the productivity and efficiency of a business, it also alleviates pressure from your team and reduces energy costs.
The V-Grip System can handle a pattern of products, a layer sheet, a pallet, or jars in a box, capable of numerous disciplines.
