If you're working with industrial automation, you've likely faced this challenge: your robotic system handles products of varying shapes, sizes, and materials – but your vacuum gripper doesn't adapt. Switching between different product types means pausing production, changing tools, and reprogramming or even redesigning your setup.
These interruptions aren’t just frustrating – they lead to downtime, inefficiencies, and rising costs.
Most vacuum gripping solutions today are built from multiple components, requiring complex assemblies, extensive cabling, and external vacuum systems. The result? Complex setups that are difficult to integrate, scale, or maintain – especially in demanding applications like robotic palletising, automated packaging, or irregular product handling.
Now imagine a different kind of vacuum solution. A lightweight, energy-efficient, all-in-one vacuum gripper system that mounts directly to your robot arm – ready to handle anything from corrugated cardboard to porous, irregular items without complex integration or costly redesign.
Introducing the ZGS Vacuum Gripper System – your new standard in automated gripping.
ZGS – A smarter vacuum gripper for every shape, surface and setup
Forget about building complex gripping systems or wasting hours on integration. The ZGS Vacuum Gripper is a compact, all-in-one solution that redefines how you handle parts – no matter their shape, size or material.
Whether you're dealing with cartons, irregular components or layered goods, the ZGS adjusts automatically, giving you a reliable grip from day one. No extra modules, no fine-tuning, no complicated setup. Just connect, mount, and start automating.
This compact, foam vacuum gripper features:
- An all-in-one design: internal vacuum generator, sensors, valves, and flow paths—all preassembled.
- Flexible gripping of uneven, porous, or irregular surfaces.
- Available in three sizes to suit a wide range of applications.
- Built-in IO-Link-enabled sensors for smart connectivity and real-time feedback.
- Dual-orientation functionality: horizontal and vertical gripping, for unmatched flexibility.
Instead of designing a new gripping system for every product variation, you now have one tool that fits them all. The ZGS eliminates unnecessary hardware, minimises wiring, and simplifies your robot cell – freeing up space and engineering resources for what really matters.
It’s not just about performance – it’s about efficiency, repeatability and flexibility. And when your production needs change, the ZGS changes with you. No redesign. No downtime.
