Multiple Pad Holder

Suppresses the runout of workpiece during conveyance. Using multiple pads stabilizes the posture of the workpiece during conveyance. By using 3 to 4 pads (suctioning at multiple points), it is possible to suppress runout of the workpiece and stabilize the posture during conveyance, so the workpiece can be prevented from falling. Available vacuum pad size are Vacuum Pad I. D.*.

Product Overview

The Multiple Pad Holder is a precision component designed to stabilize workpieces during conveyance by suppressing runout and maintaining consistent posture. By using three to four suction pads distributed across the workpiece, it ensures secure holding and prevents tipping or shifting, which helps avoid damage and improves process reliability in automated handling systems.

Construction and Materials

The pad holder is constructed from aluminum, providing a durable and lightweight structure suitable for industrial environments. This material choice offers excellent resistance to wear and corrosion while maintaining structural integrity under operational loads.

Configuration and Connections

The device features multiple suction points configured with 3 to 4 pads that engage the workpiece simultaneously. Each pad operates independently to create a distributed vacuum, enabling effective stabilization even when the workpiece is hollow or irregular in shape.

Operating Characteristics

The vacuum pad size is specified as Vacuum Pad I.D.*. When used without an additional vacuum pad (i.e., with only the pad holder), the diameter of the mounting point is φ1.6 mm. This dimension ensures compatibility with standard vacuum systems and allows for precise alignment during integration.

Sizes and Options

The Multiple Pad Holder is available in a single configuration designed to support workpieces of various shapes, including hollow ones. It does not offer color variants or size options beyond the standard pad holder design and vacuum pad interface specifications.

Installation and Integration

Installation requires mounting the pad holder directly onto the conveyance system’s vacuum line or transfer mechanism. The φ1.6 mm mounting point allows for secure attachment to existing vacuum nozzles or suction fittings, enabling seamless integration into existing automated handling lines.
