System Architecture
The sponge suction cup manipulator is a core tool for handling rough surfaces, porous or irregularly shaped objects.
This system consists of a highly flexible robotic arm and an integrated vacuum sponge gripper.
Sponge Sealing Layer: Utilizes high-resilience EPDM or Nitrile closed-cell sponge, possessing excellent abrasion resistance and resistance to compression set.
Vacuum Generation Unit: Equipped with a built-in multi-stage jet vacuum generator or an external high-flow fan.
Self-Closing Valve System: A core component ensuring that the suction holes in the area where the sponge is not in contact with the workpiece automatically close.
Control System: Integrates a built-in intelligent algorithm to adjust vacuum flow and gripping force in real time.
