The Vacuum Pad Oval Type is a specialized vacuum holding component designed to prevent workpiece drop during handling, especially in multi-pad applications. Its dual-release mechanism ensures reliable and repeatable release of small or light workpieces that may otherwise adhere due to surface tension or residual suction forces.
Constructed from high-performance elastomeric materials including nitrile rubber, silicone rubber, fluoro rubber, or conductive silicone rubber, the pad offers durability, resistance to environmental exposure, and optional static dissipation. The design features a direct mounting structure with an integrated mechanical release function for consistent performance under varying conditions.
The vacuum pad is configured as a direct-mount type with a built-in mechanical release system. It operates in conjunction with a vacuum source and blow-off air supply, where the two-step release process—first via blow-off air, then via internal pin ejection—ensures complete workpiece disengagement without risk of re-adhesion or displacement.
The pad operates within an air-based system under specific pressure ranges: positive pressure from 30 kPa to 0.5 MPa and negative pressure from -100 kPa to -30 kPa. Suction flow is rated at 4 L/min when vacuum pressure reaches -80 kPa or lower. The vacuum release valve activates at an operating pressure of 30 kPa for pin ejection, while suction air supply is triggered at -30 kPa.
Available in oval shape with a vacuum pad ID specified as per the product standard, and featuring a pad holder only size of φ1.6 mm when used without the pad. The product does not specify color variants or size options beyond the standard oval configuration and vacuum pad dimensions provided.
The pad integrates directly into vacuum systems via mechanical mounting points on the holder, which accepts standard vacuum connections. A built-in rod mechanism ensures that after blow-off air is released, the internal pin is pushed out to secure workpiece release, with the system designed so that no blow-off air exits once the rod has moved, preventing unintended movement of the workpiece.
