Chocolate Vacuum Solutions
VMECA’s Magic Cups
The Magic Cups, featured in our video, are fitted to an individually manufactured aluminium vacuum manifold (pictured left). This EOAT (End of Arm Tool) is attached to an ABB industrial robot which picks and places the chocolate.
All of VMECA’s vacuum suction lips are available in metal detectable and FDA approved food grade quality silicon – which is also ideal for fine gauge, foils, films and plastic.
Simmatic offer a wide range of VMECA Magic Suction Cup lip sizes, materials and shapes to handle the fastest pick and place application. One big advantage with these cups is you can switch out the suction lips with your hands, this not only saves time, it’s also environmentally friendly.
Examples of use:
- Packaging materials
- Thin-films and foils
- Plastic bags and packet opening
- Can handle foods directly
- Uneven surface products: Cans, trays, jars and bottles
- Plastic sheets
Simmatic has found ever growing success within the food industry, mainly due to the difficult unpredictable nature of irregular shapes and sizes of food items and their packaging. FDA approved cups are the perfect solution.
To all our Customers and Suppliers – Simmatic wish you a very Happy Easter 🐣 🐰
