Vacuum Pad

Vacuum Pad Metal detectable type (-S3 spec.)

Made of Silicone rubber containing metal detectable additive which is ideal for food processing line.

  • No copper-based metallic material is used in flow paths
  • HNBR or FKM is used for the seal rubber material. *Some products are only compatible in the flow path.

Advantages

In case a fragment of the vacuum cup is mixed in, metal detectors will respond.

Iron powder type and SUS powder type are available.

SUS-powder type is the industy's first, of which wear debris is resisti to rust.
*There are possibilities that the metal detector does not detect a fragment of SUS-powder type pads depending on its settings or a type of food. Conduct a test to ensure it works.

Response ratio rate of iron powder type is more than twice compared with others' (In-house testing)

Vacuum pad lips with/without rib types are available.

Two types of durometer hardness, 30°and 51°are available.

Durometer hardness can be identified by the color.

Lip part and bellows part sticking problem is mitigated. (Comparion with existing models)

Includes sticking-prevention bumps.

Identification code for the cup material is typed on the top.

Detailed Safety Instructions

Caution

1.Conduct adsorption tests on the actual equipment when making a selection.

2.Metal detectable vacuum pad is made of silicone which contains metallic powder.

3.Note that the durability of the product will be reduced by lifting heavy workpieces.

4.There may be color unevenness on a pad, which does not affect the performance.
