The Vacuum Pad with Mechanical Release Function is designed to prevent workpiece drop during handling, especially in multi-pad applications where consistent and reliable release is critical. Its dual-release mechanism—combining blow-off air supply with a mechanical pin ejection—ensures stable detachment of small or light workpieces that may otherwise adhere due to vacuum hold. This makes it ideal for automated systems requiring repeatable, fail-safe release performance.
The pad is constructed from a combination of nitrile rubber, silicone rubber, fluoro rubber, and conductive silicone rubber, providing durability, flexibility, and resistance to various environmental conditions. The material selection ensures long-term performance under dynamic vacuum cycles while maintaining surface integrity and adhesion control.
The vacuum pad features a direct mounting type design with an integrated mechanical release function. It connects directly to the vacuum system via standard air lines for both suction and blow-off operations, enabling seamless integration into existing industrial automation setups without additional adapters or modifications.
The pad operates within a positive pressure range of 30 kPa to 0.5 MPa and a negative pressure range of -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 begins at -30 kPa. This precise pressure control ensures reliable workpiece release without over-pressurization or unintended detachment.
The product is available in a standard vacuum pad size defined by its internal diameter (I.D.). The pad holder alone has a diameter of φ1.6 mm, which serves as the mounting base for attachment to machinery. No color variants are specified; all units are provided in a standardized industrial finish suitable for factory environments.
Installation is straightforward and requires only direct mounting onto the work surface or fixture. The mechanical release function is activated through the system’s air supply—first by delivering blow-off air at 30 kPa, followed by pin ejection when vacuum pressure drops to -30 kPa. This ensures that even if blow-off air fails to release the workpiece, the internal pin will eject to guarantee complete detachment, preventing adhesion and workpiece loss.
