Schmalz: SPZ ready-to-connect vacuum layer gripping system

Attachment allows flexible, mobile palletizing and depalletizing of layers The SPZ ready-to-connect vacuum layer gripping system for partially automated, mobile palletizing and depalletizing mounts easily to a forklift or pallet truck for smooth handling of entire product layers. It features a sealing plate made of flexible foam that optimally adjusts to the work piece shape for handling jars and cans. For handling cardboard boxes, the unit uses abrasion-proof and flexible suction plates with push-in suction cups that adapt to uneven product layers. An integrated valve allows fast lifting for short cycle times. The device also allows transport of goods securely, even in applications with a low degree of gripper coverage, such as hollow glass or irregular stacks of cardboard boxes.
