VACUUM

In addition to industrial applications, vacuum technologies are also an integral part of research in chemistry, biology, and physics. Their advantages lie in their gentle handling and compact design, which saves space and weight, so they are primarily used in precisely defined industrial processes. There, they ensure short cycle times combined with low maintenance costs.

Festo vacuum technologies include equipment such as vacuum generators as well as vacuum suction cups and vacuum grippers and corresponding accessories.

Festo vacuum generators

Festo vacuum generators—a variety of vacuum suction nozzles—operate on the Venturi principle, meaning they are purely pneumatic vacuum ejectors. These vacuum ejectors can be used to generate either high volumetric flow rates or high vacuum. They feature a compact design and low weight, can be installed in any orientation, and require minimal maintenance. They are used in many industrial sectors, but particularly in material handling and automation.

Vacuum Grippers and Vacuum Suction Cups

Vacuum suction cups and vacuum grippers serve as the link between the vacuum generator and the workpiece being transported, and are therefore an important part of the vacuum system. They offer a simple, cost-effective, and reliable solution for handling workpieces, and Festo offers not only a variety of materials (nitrile rubber, polyurethane, silicone, rubber) but also various shapes (universal, flat, bellows, and special suction cups).

Accessories

In addition to vacuum components, such as vacuum generators and vacuum suction cups, you can, of course, also obtain the corresponding accessories from Festo. These include various mounting and connecting elements, as well as compensation elements, vacuum gauges, vacuum filters, vacuum suction valves, and vacuum accessories.
