Hardware Specification 

150 

 

Extra attention must be paid to leakages, e.g. vacuum cup shape and surface roughness  

 

The air flow capability of a VG grippers is shown in the graph below:  

 

 

 

NOTE: 

The easiest way to check if a cardboard box is sufficiently tight is simply 
to test it using the VG grippers. 

A  high  vacuum  percentage  setting  does  not  give  a  higher  lifting 
capacity  on  corrugated  cardboard.  In  fact,  a  lower  setting  is 
recommended, e.g. 20%. 

A low vacuum setting results in less air flow and less friction below the 
vacuum cups. This means VG gripper filters and vacuum cups will last 
longer.
