    Slide these bellows over square rods and shafts. All are molded, which means they're airtight to keep contaminants out. Air venting may be necessary in fast-cycling applications. Screw mount the flange ends to surfaces, or add a mounting flange (sold separately) for stability.

    The bellows on these cups handle items with varied heights and angles better than flat cups. Use them with a vacuum system to grip, lift, and move items.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
    Multiple Bellows—Cups with multiple bellows compress more than cups with single bellows to better lift objects with differing heights and orientations.
    Polyurethane Rubber Cups—Polyurethane rubber cups last longer than Buna-N cups.
    Metal Filter and Plastic Filter—Cups with a filter prevent material from entering the vacuum system.

    Robot-Ready Electric Vacuum Lifters

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Vacuum Lifters. Robot-Ready Electric Vacuum Lifters.
    Attach these lifters to FANUC CRX or Universal Robots collaborative robots. They handle items up to 3.5 times heavier than our lifters for lightweight items. Because they use electricity to pick up and move items with suction, there’s no need for compressed air or air control valves. They don’t have pinch points or sharp edges, so they help you meet ISO/TS 15066 international safety standards for people working near robots.
    Often used in packaging, palletizing, and material handling, these lifters can grip everything from cardboard boxes to bags of screws. With soft rubber cups, they’re less likely than pick-and-place grippers to damage glass, thin plastic, and other delicate objects. To install, plug the cord into your robot arm. It carries both power and control signals.
    Vacuum Lifters
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Vacuum Lifters. Robot-Ready Electric Vacuum Lifters, Vacuum Lifters.
    These lifters include a robot tool mount, vacuum generator, quick-change cup mount, vacuum cup assembly, extra vacuum cup, and cord. Use the quick-change cup mount to swap in other vacuum cup assemblies (sold separately).
    Once installed, use your robot program to turn suction on or off. An integrated vacuum switch tells your robot when an item is picked up, so it can move to the next location. View and adjust vacuum levels and other settings with an onboard screen and keypad.
    Lifters for FANUC CRX arms are FANUC approved and lifters for Universal Robots (UR) arms are UR+ certified, so they’ve been tested to work seamlessly with your robot. For simple integration with your teach pendant software, download FANUC and URCap plug-ins from the manufacturer’s website.
    Maximum Weight Capacity—Maximum weight capacity is achieved only when lifting items with smooth, nonporous surfaces, such as those made from glass and sheet metal. Materials like cardboard leak air when lifted, which reduces your lifter’s capacity. For instance, you can lift about 25% of the maximum capacity when using these lifters on a cardboard box similar to those we ship our parts in.

    Cup assemblies connect directly to the quick-change cup mount on these lifters. Assemblies with more cups have better stability when gripping items with large surface areas or uneven weight distribution.
    All assemblies include flat and single-bellows cups. Flat cups work well with flat surfaces, such as the sides of boxes. Single-bellows cups firmly hold uneven material. Swap out worn or damaged cups with replacement vacuum cups.

    Robot-Ready Electric Vacuum Lifters for Lightweight Items

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Vacuum Lifters. Robot-Ready Electric Vacuum Lifters for Lightweight Items .
    Made for FANUC CRX and Universal Robots collaborative robots, these lifters use suction to pick up and move lightweight items, up to 6 lbs. They run on electricity, so you don’t need compressed air or air valves. Often used in packaging, palletizing, and material handling, these lifters can grip everything from small cardboard boxes to bagged screws. With soft rubber cups, they’re less likely than pick-and-place grippers to damage glass, thin plastic, and other delicate materials. They’re also simple to set up—a single cord supplies both power and control to your robot arm. They help you meet ISO/TS 15066 international safety standards for people working near robots because there are no pinch points or sharp edges.

    These lifters include a vacuum generator with a robot mount, a cord, and two types of vacuum cups. Use the flat cup for items with level surfaces and the single-bellows cup for gripping tilted items or items of different heights. You can also use your own vacuum cup if it has a compatible 1/4 BSPP threaded connection. For large items, items that might break if lifted from a single point, or material with uneven weight distribution, use 2-, 3-, or 4-cup assemblies (sold separately).
    Once you’ve installed these lifters, use your robot program to turn suction on or off. An integrated vacuum switch tells your robot when an item is picked up, so it knows when to move to the next location. Adjust the vacuum level using the arrow keys on the lifter body. These lifters achieve maximum weight capacity only when handling items with smooth, nonporous surfaces, such as glass or sheet metal.
    Lifters for FANUC CRX arms are FANUC approved and lifters for Universal Robots (UR) arms are UR+ certified, so they’ve been tested to work seamlessly with your robot. For simple integration with your teach pendant software, download FANUC and URCap plug-ins from the manufacturer’s website.

    Also known as venturi devices, these lifters connect to any compressed air source to generate continuous suction—no need for a centralized vacuum system. The vacuum pump optimizes air flow to create a strong grip for lifting and moving materials while reducing air and energy use. These lifters activate and release quickly, so they’re ideal for fast-cycle pick-and-place tasks. Their cup is polyurethane rubber, so it’s durable and won’t leave marks on surfaces.
    Bellows Cup—Lifters with a bellows cup are a good choice for picking up items with irregular shapes and varied heights.

    Robot-Ready Large-Area Vacuum Lifters

    Everything you need to get your robot arm lifting large, bulky items with suction. With multiple suction points, these lifters have a larger footprint than standard lifters, so they can arrange boxed items on pallets and lift more than one item at a time. You don't need to make contact with all suction points to lift—great for picking up products that aren't perfectly aligned or consistently sized. They don’t have pinch points or sharp edges, so they help you meet ISO/TS 15066 international safety standards for people working near robots.
    Use the included mount to bolt these lifters right to your robot arm. They have a built-in vacuum generator, so once you hook up the compressed air supply and plug the power cord into the arm, you’re ready to lift. Because these lifters have integrated air control valves, you can use your robot’s control program to turn suction on or off. A vacuum switch tells your robot when an item is picked up, so it knows to move to the next location. View and adjust vacuum levels and other settings with the display and keypad.
    Lifters for FANUC CRX arms are FANUC approved and lifters for Universal Robots (UR) arms are UR+ certified, so they’ve been tested to work seamlessly with your robot. For simple integration with your teach pendant software, download FANUC and URCap plug-ins from the manufacturer’s website.

    Lifters with cups are the best choice for most lifting. Made of silicone rubber, the cups are more durable and last longer than foam pads. The cups have bellows, which seal tightly on glass and other smooth surfaces. They can also conform to flexible materials and irregular shapes for a firm grip.
    Maximum Weight Capacity—Maximum weight capacity is achieved only when lifting items with smooth, nonporous surfaces, such as glass and sheet metal. Materials like cardboard leak air when lifted, which reduces your lifter’s capacity. For instance, you can lift about 50% of the maximum capacity when using these lifters on a cardboard box similar to those we ship our parts in. Maximum capacity is also reduced when lifted items don’t fully cover all suction points.
