This week we’re demonstrating VMECA’s V-Grip Systems with ABB. Dale Simmonds recently met with Davey Enslin so, we’re taking the opportunity to highlight these VMECA products, and ABB in synergy.

V-Grip Systems are innovative vacuum grippers with built-in vacuum generators. The V-Gripper vacuum solution is available in a range of different sizes, starting at 100mm in length going up to 1200mm. Capable of handling multiple processes, VMECA’s V-Grips are offered with a choice of either application-specific sponge pads or vacuum cups as shown in our video. Bespoke solutions are also available, please contact us directly for all the details.

The V-Grip System shown, is demonstrating its versatility, vacuum handling cardboard boxes, wooden pallets, packets and prepacked food products. V-Grips are also proficient in handling a pattern of products, a layer sheet, jars in a box and more, resulting in an adaptable industrial robot capable of numerous disciplines.

Here at Simmatic, we know ALL the challenges picking up objects with different shapes, sizes and/or porous materials bring. VMECA’s V-Grips offer options such as, an adjustable check valve you can adjust from off, low, medium, high and max flow settings. Designed with a lightweight aluminium body frame and slots for easy installation, V-Grip Vacuum Gripping Systems only require low maintenance.

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.

Ultimately, every industry has their own unique material handling requirements but one thing they all have in common is the demand for efficiency, speed and a safe working environment. Simmatic has found ever growing success within the food 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.
