SMC ZP3E-T80UMN-A16 High Rigidity Vacuum Pad – Flat Type with Groove and Adapter

The SMC ZP3E-T80UMN-A16 vacuum pad from the ZP3E series is engineered for demanding industrial applications requiring stable and reliable vacuum gripping. This model features a flat pad with a precision-engineered groove, combined with an adapter that facilitates vertical vacuum inlet connection for seamless integration into automated systems.

• Enhanced Suction Stability: The flat pad design with an incorporated groove improves sealing capability and ensures a stable suction position on smooth and slightly uneven workpiece surfaces, reducing the risk of slippage during handling.
• Improved Ease of Removal: The vacuum pad is optimized for quick and reliable release from workpieces, streamlining pick-and-place operations without compromising vacuum integrity.
• Mounting Versatility: Supports both male and female threaded mounting, allowing straightforward installation on various vacuum tooling and fixtures while minimizing assembly time.
• Vacuum Inlet Configuration: Equipped with a vertical vacuum inlet via an adapter, enabling efficient vacuum supply lines connection with reduced flow resistance and enhanced stability in vacuum delivery.
• Buffer Options: Compatible with optional buffers providing stroke lengths of 10, 30, or 50 mm, designed to absorb shocks and vibrations during pick-and-place cycles, extending the service life of the vacuum pad and tooling.
• Material Optimization: Typically constructed using high-performance elastomers such as NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) ensuring excellent wear resistance, chemical compatibility, and suitability for a wide range of industrial applications including metal sheet handling, glass, and packaging industries.
• Pad Diameter: Sized at 80mm, balancing surface contact area and compactness for effective hold force and adaptability to various workpiece sizes.

This highly durable vacuum suction cup is suited for use in automated production lines that require precise, repeatable handling of flat or lightly uneven surfaces. Its engineering optimizations yield enhanced reliability, longer equipment life, and improved operational efficiency within robotic or pneumatic vacuum gripping systems.
