VACUMANAGER VM series power supply unit

VACUMANAGER VM series power supply unit

VACUMANAGER VM series units are integrated electro-pneumatic circuits designed to supply and manage single-stage and multi-stage vacuum generators.
VM units house the following in an anodised body/distributor machined from billet aluminium:
- 1 Digital vacuum switch with display
- 1 Compressed air supply valve
- 1 Blow off valve
- 1 Flow regulator for the blow off valve
A compact electro-pneumatic control circuit that incorporates all components for the management of vacuum and blow off generation in a handling system equipped with vacuum cups and powered by pneumatic vacuum generators (single-stage or multi-stage).
In combination with the Vuototecnica Energy Saving cables, these represent the best solution in terms of energy efficiency, as they limit the consumption of the compressed air supplying the pneumatic vacuum generators to the time strictly necessary to empty the vacuum cups.
This energy-saving solution is even more valued and appreciated in all vacuum cup handling operations for products with excellent sealing or with micro-porosity (metal sheets, glass, wood or plastic veneered panels, etc.).
Vuototecnica also recommends VM units for handling all Octopus gripping systems equipped with pneumatic vacuum generators and shut-off valves.

OCTOPUS vacuum gripping system - General description

OCTOPUS vacuum gripping system - General description

The OCTOPUS system is our answer to the ever increasing requirements of operational flexibility for palletising robots and vacuum gripping systems in general.
In fact, this system allows gripping objects of any shape and nature, provided that they do not have an excessive transpiration, without having to place or change vacuum cups, and even when their surface occupies only 5% of the entire suction plate. The maximum weight of the load to be lifted will obviously be proportional to the gripping surface.
Standard OCTOPUS systems are composed of:
- One or two compressed air-fed vacuum generator as shown in the picture and in the drawing, that has to be ordered separately, since it is not included in the code, with the exception of item SO 15 20 MX.
- An anodised aluminium box, open on one side, with a built-in micro-fine mesh filter in stainless steel that protects the vacuum generator and is very easy to inspect. On the top outside of the box there are one or more connections for possible installation of control devices or solenoid valves for prompt restoration of the atmospheric pressure on its inside.
- A suction plate sealing the box, also made with anodised aluminium, with calibrated holes equidistant from each other and coated with a special perforated foam rubber. This suction plate can thus perfectly adapt to any gripping surface, whether it be smooth, rough or irregular. With the same system, for instance, it is possible to grip and handle cardboard boxes and the wooden pallet that supports it.
These OCTOPUS systems are also available upon request in dimensions and with vacuum tables and vacuum generators other than those indicated in the tables.

OCTOPUS vacuum gripping system

OCTOPUS vacuum gripping system

The standard OCTOPUS systems represented on this page differ from those previously described by their larger dimensions and the number of vacuum generators that compose them. More precisely:
- Two compressed air-fed vacuum generator as shown in the picture and in the drawing, that have to be ordered separately, since it is not included in the item code.
- An anodised aluminium box, open on one side, with a built-in micro-fine mesh filter in stainless steel that protects the vacuum generator and is very easy to inspect. On the top outside of the box there are one or more connections for possible installation of control devices or solenoid valves for prompt restoration of the atmospheric pressure on its inside.
- A suction plate sealing the box, also made with anodised aluminium, with calibrated holes equidistant from each other and coated with a special perforated foam rubber. This suction plate can thus perfectly adapt to any gripping surface, whether it be smooth, rough or irregular. With the same system, for instance, it is possible to grip and handle tomato jars, paint cans, ceramic tiles, cardboard boxes, etc. and the wooden pallet that supports them.
These OCTOPUS systems are also available upon request in dimensions and with vacuum tables and vacuum generators other than those indicated in the table.

Standard suction plates PX and P2X for OCTOPUS systems

Standard suction plates PX and P2X for OCTOPUS systems

The suction plates PX described on this page are installed as standard on all OCTOPUS systems and, therefore, can be supplied as a spare or replacement part.
They are made with anodised aluminium sheets with calibrated holes equidistant from each other and coated with a special perforated foam rubber with two different thicknesses: 15 mm for suction plates of the PX range; 30 mm, for special suction plates of the P2X range.
The foam rubber is also perforated at the calibrated holes, but its holes have a diameter of 10-15 mm. The use of calibrated holes allows for exact calculation of the flow rate of the vacuum generator to be used, to ensure that, even in the presence of losses due to transpiration or even in case of failure to cover the object to be gripped, a minimum sufficient level of vacuum remains for gripping and handling the load.
Their lifting force was calculated considering a level of vacuum of at least -75 Kpa, the total surface of the holes within the foam rubber and a factor of safety 3.

OCTOPUS vacuum gripping bars - General description

OCTOPUS vacuum gripping bars - General description

These bars have been created to further facilitate the installation of OCTOPUS vacuum gripping systems on palletising robots. They are based on the same operating principle and, in addition to the advantages and technical features of the standard OCTOPUS, are equipped with a grooved support plate to allow quick installation on the machine and easy positioning with respect to the load to be gripped.
They are in fact composed of:
- A slotted anodised aluminium fixing plate for quick installation onto the machine
- One or more compressed air-fed vacuum generators, depending on their size
- A connection equipped with quick coupling for feeding compressed air to the generators
- An anodised aluminium box, open on one side, with two air inlet connections inside at the end of the cycle, for quick restoration of the atmospheric pressure and one for possible installation of a vacuum switch.
- A suction plate sealing the box, also made with anodised aluminium, with calibrated holes equidistant from each other and coated with a special perforated foam rubber. This suction plate can thus perfectly adapt to any gripping surface, whether it be smooth, rough or irregular. With the same bar, for example, it is possible to grip and move wooden joists or metal profiles and the pallet that supports them.
The OCTOPUS gripping bars described so far are the standard bars: they can be supplied upon request with suction plates and with shut-off valves and, to make them even lighter, the aluminium parts can be made of Polizene, a thermoplastic material that decreases the weight by about 40%.

The special suction plates illustrated and described on this page can be installed on OCTOPUS systems to replace the PX and P2X plates.
They are made of anodised aluminium sheets with holes equidistant from each other and coated with a special sponge rubber, microperforated at the holes in the aluminium sheet, in two different thicknesses: 15 mm for PH suction plates and 30 mm for P2H plates.
The use of calibrated holes makes it possible to calculate the flow rate of the vacuum generator to be installed on the OCTOPUS SYSTEM, to ensure that, even in the presence of losses due to transpiration or the absence of some objects to be picked up, there is always a minimum vacuum value, sufficient to grip even the few remaining containers.
The use of these suction plates is recommended for gripping and handling empty cans, tins, vials and jars made of various materials and without lids or caps.
The lifting force of the container will be directly proportional to the degree of vacuum generated on the surface of the mouth of the can or vial to be picked up.
Note: These plates are not suitable for picking up empty plastic or glass water and wine bottles.
All flexible containers must be previously vacuum tested to avoid the risk of implosion.

Samples and equipment for demonstration use - Equipped robot for gripping and handling objects with special vacuum cups and grippers - VACBOT

The system we offer is composed of a robot fixed to a work surface, programmable by means of a special keyboard, servo-assisted by a mini-compressor with a vacuum pump and a compressor, enclosed in a sturdy metal cabinet on wheels.
The robot can be configured and equipped in various ways, for gripping with vacuum cups or small Octopus surfaces, with repetitive gripping programs to better render the idea of its multiple gripping capabilities of different objects with different shapes.
This device is ideal for trade fairs or showrooms, since seeing it work highlights the full potential of its use in the automation and handling sector in general, with the help of vacuums.
Only needs to be connected to the electrical power line.
