"SPF-ED" is a flat pad made of elastodur, known for its excellent flexibility and abrasion resistance. Its flexible sealing lip provides outstanding sealing capabilities during the transport of cardboard boxes and rigid packaging materials. Additionally, the sturdy pad body, with moderate hardness, ensures high stability even during dynamic transport processes. An optional filter can be attached (with a filtration precision of 250μm) to suppress the intrusion of dust and particles into the equipment. Furthermore, support ribs on the suction surface help prevent deformation of the work surface during transport at high vacuum levels. "SPB1-ED (1.5 stages)" is a bellows pad made of elastodur with high suction power, capable of compensating for height differences in the workpiece. The unevenness of the bellows and sealing grip aligns during pad compression, preventing lateral displacement and twisting of the bellows and sealing grip during transport. "SPOB1-ED (1.5 stages)" is an oval bellows pad made of elastodur, featuring high abrasion resistance and compliance. For more details, please contact us or refer to the catalog.

The wafer gripper SWGm is a vacuum gripper specialized for the transport of wafers and cells for solar cells. The gripping surface of the gripper is sized to match 5 to 6-inch single-crystal and multi-crystal wafers and cells, preventing damage from localized loads during adhesion. Compared to Bernoulli-type grippers, it has less lateral displacement and can reduce air consumption. By connecting a hose to the main body of the gripper, the exhaust location can be set arbitrarily, preventing dust from being stirred up during the transport process, making it suitable for use in clean rooms. In the latest model SWGm, the position of the exhaust port can be selected from side or top types. In addition to standalone use of the gripper, it is also possible to add functions such as solenoid valves and cushioning pads according to the operating environment.

The HT2 series vacuum pads are suction pads made from high-temperature resistant rubber. They were developed as pads for transporting thin steel sheets at high temperatures in processes such as hot forming and hot forging. They can adhere to workpieces at 350°C for short periods and 200°C for longer durations. In addition to being able to replace mechanical clamps, the markless material helps prevent suction marks from appearing after painting. The HT2 pads are designed in the same shape as our SA series, which is suitable for transporting thin steel sheets. The unique design of the suction surface in the SA series prevents deformation of the workpieces and allows for high-speed transport, resulting in many successful applications.
