Graphic division
The experience and production capacity of Vuototecnica has originated a division specially dedicated to the graphics and printing sector. A reference entity, ranging from engineering to services, that offers innovative and advantageous technical solutions under every point of view: performance, reliability, duration and operational economy. A significant demonstration of the Graphic Division specialisation is represented by the new range of products among which:
PNEUMATIC SUCTION AND BLOWING PUMPS
This new generation of highly versatile multiple-ejector pumps (multi-stage) are able to suction or blow as needed and represent a real evolution compared to conventional rotary vane pumps. Characterised by their new generation of ejectors, these pumps boast an excellent ratio between the quantity of air consumed and that suctioned (or generated), benefiting operational consumption. Their level of vacuum (or pressure level) and flow rate can be adjusted based simply on the air supply pressure. The state of the art hi-tech materials have considerably reduced the weight allowing them to be installed directly on the machine. The Vuototecnica research centre has focused its attention on noise reduction, with solutions that provide for full soundproofing and no moving parts, thus prolonging duration and eliminating any vibrations. Furthermore, these pumps are based on the Venturi principle which exploits the compressed air kinetic energy via in-line ejectors and, therefore, do not develop heat. The excellent filtration of the compressed air supply and intake air allows the intake of air free from oil, water condensates and impurities from between the sheets of paper to be separated in the working environment, with no pollution. Other assets of this safe and competitive technology include a minimal maintenance, limited to a regular filter cleaning operation, and reliability with no comparison. The pneumatic suction and blowing pumps are described in the following pages.
VACUUM CYLINDERS
By assembling a vacuum cup onto their perforated stem and creating a vacuum, the cup will quickly come into contact with the sheet or the object to be handled and it will automatically lift it, holding it until the vacuum is excluded. Thanks to all these features, this range of cylinders combined with cups are particularly recommended for separating sheets of paper or plastic. Advantages include: high speed operation, automatic compensation of the height of the objects to be lifted, non-rotating stems and extremely easy fixing. These vacuum cylinders are illustrated and described on the following pages.
VACUUM CUPS
These come in a large variety of shapes and sizes, to guarantee a quick and safe grip and they can be provided in anti-abrasion natural para rubber, nitrile or oil-resistant rubber, silicone, Viton, polyurethane and other compounds, according to the requirements.Vacuum cups are described in detail in Chapter 1. This chapter on the other hand will focus on disc cups only.

Vacuum cylinders
The cylinders described on this page are vacuum operated.
By creating a vacuum in the anterior chamber of the cylinder, the piston's integrated rod protrudes, overcoming the opposing spring force.
The piston is pushed by the air at atmospheric pressure that gets into the cylinder’s rear chamber through the hollow stem.
The greater the pressure differential between the front chamber under vacuum and the rear chamber at atmospheric pressure, and the larger the piston thrust force will be.
The stem returns into position in two ways:
1) By preventing the atmospheric air from entering through the stem hole and with the vacuum inserted, the pressure differential inside the cylinder is removed. Under this condition, the thrust spring and the atmospheric pressure forces prevail on the stem which is thus pushed into its initial position.
2) By excluding the vacuum, the atmospheric pressure is restored in both the cylinder chambers. Also in this case, being the pressure differential removed, the stem returns to its initial position pushed by the thrust spring.
The first of these two methods is the true operating principle for which this cylinder has been designed. When a vacuum is created, in fact, a vacuum cup mounted on the stem of the perforated cylinder will be brought rapidly into contact with the object to be taken. The object is then automatically lifted and remain gripped during the whole time the vacuum stays engaged.
Because of this feature, vacuum cylinders associated with vacuum cups are recommended for gripping and handling machined, moulded or thermoformed objects, as well as for separating sheets of paper or plastic, sheet steel, etc. and lifting printed circuits or thin plastic panels.
The advantages offered by these vacuum cylinders include: short, fast quick cycles controlled by a single vacuum interception valve, automatic compensation of the height of the objects to be gripped with no compression on them, non-rotating piston and extremely easy fixing.
They are fully made with anodised aluminium and are equipped with a special self-lubricating technopolymer bush which guarantees long duration.
