SMC ZP3E-TF100BMNJB50 High Rigidity Vacuum Pad – Bellows Type with Ribs, Groove, Ball Joint and Buffer

The SMC ZP3E-TF100BMNJB50 vacuum pad is engineered for superior rigidity and reliable vacuum gripping in demanding industrial automation and handling applications. This bellows-type suction cup integrates ribs and a groove on the pad surface to enhance suction stability on uneven or textured workpieces.

• Pad Design: Bellows type with ribs and groove; the ribs increase contact surface reinforcement and gripping force while the groove ensures stable suction and quick release, meeting requirements for precision part handling and repeated pick-and-place cycles.
• High Rigidity Construction: Optimized design for minimized deformation under vacuum load, enabling stable suction positioning and improving ease of removal from workpieces. Suitable for applications requiring consistent and repeatable vacuum holding.
• Mounting Options: Equipped with male and female threaded mounting interfaces allowing versatile installation methods compatible with various robotic arms and vacuum systems.
• Vacuum Inlet Configuration: Vertical vacuum inlet equipped with a ball joint adapter that provides flexible orientation and compensation for angular misalignment during handling operations, thus reducing stress on fittings and improving durability.
• Buffer System: Integrated buffer with selectable stroke lengths of 10, 30, or 50 mm absorbs shocks during engagement and disengagement phases, protecting both the vacuum pad and workpiece from impact damage while enhancing cycle life.
• Material Compatibility: Designed to work effectively with a range of materials including NBR, silicone rubber, and urethane, accommodating various surface textures and sensitivities unlike general-purpose flat suction cups.
• Pad Diameter: Sized at 100 mm diameter, balancing a large contact area for high vacuum force with the compactness needed for robotic end effectors and automated machinery.

Ideal for industrial sectors such as electronics assembly, packaging, automotive manufacturing, and general material handling, the ZP3E-TF100BMNJB50 vacuum suction cup assures high reliability and adaptability to complex geometries with its bellows design, rib enhancements, and built-in buffer. The ball joint type and thread mounting optimize system integration to maintain stable gripping under dynamic conditions.
