Possible Applications
During the part‑handling step of an automated assembly line, the oval‑shaped bellows suction gripper is fitted to the robot’s pneumatic end‑effector to pick up components that have curved or uneven surfaces. The flexible bellows conform to the workpiece, creating a reliable seal with the nitrile‑rubber surface while the internal thread nipple allows a quick‑change connection to standard vacuum tubes. This compliance protects fragile parts such as glass lenses, thin metal sheets, or plastic housings from deformation during transfer between stations. Because the gripper can be swapped without tools, line engineers can re‑configure the cell for different products with minimal downtime, supporting mixed‑model production. In addition, the blue‑colored material provides visual confirmation of correct orientation, helping operators verify that the gripper is installed the right way. The same design is also found in high‑speed packaging machines where it lifts cartons and positions them for sealing.
