Why choose SMC Components for Vacuum System?
A reliable vacuum system is essential for achieving high-quality results across various applications. SMC provides tailored solutions designed to meet your specific needs with precision and efficiency.
One of the key advantages of SMC vacuum components is the cutting-edge technology behind them. SMC offers intelligent components that enable precise control and communication, allowing for predictive maintenance and energy-efficient operation.
Types of vacuum components we offer at SMC
At SMC, we have a wide catalogue of vacuum products that can help you optimise your system:
Vacuum Pads
To select the most suitable vacuum pad for your vacuum system, the first step is to know the characteristics of the workpieces, taking into account the material of the suction pad and the working conditions. At SMC Eesti we offer a wide range of vacuum suction cups for different industrial requirements: flat, bellows, oval, nozzle, sponge, among others.
Vacuum Generators
At SMC, we offer energy-efficient vacuum generators that save up to 90% of air consumption. You'll find everything from simple, compact, lightweight ejectors to advanced energy-saving solutions with fieldbus communication and integrated pneumatic control.
Whether you need to integrate vacuum generator into mobile robots, save air while generating a high level of vacuum or control your vacuum units remotely, at SMC we have the vacuum solution to suit you.
Vacuum Filters
Contaminants in the air can pose serious risks to vacuum components, potentially shortening their lifespan. Our vacuum filters effectively remove harmful particles, ensuring optimal system performance and reliability.
By integrating our vacuum filters, you can extend the durability of your components while reducing maintenance costs.
Vacuum Switches and Sensors
Accurate system monitoring requires reliable vacuum sensors. Different applications demand specific sensors to measure parameters such as pressure, flow, or vacuum levels.
That's why SMC offers a wide range of vacuum switches designed to meet your specific requirements, helping you optimize your industrial vacuum system for maximum efficiency.
Vacuum Regulators
With SMC vacuum regulators, you can easily and precisely control the air pressure or vacuum level within your system. Our vacuum regulators are lightweight and compact, making them ideal for use in confined spaces. Additionally, they can be remotely controlled via fieldbus networks, allowing for real-time adjustments and data acquisition.
Vacuum Gripper for Robots
Modern industries demand greater flexibility and automation solutions that are easy to integrate and operate. To meet this need, SMC offers vacuum grippers specifically designed for seamless mounting on collaborative robots (cobots). These units enable efficient handling of various tasks and applications, enhancing productivity and adaptability in industrial environments.
Vacuum Valves
Our vacuum valves simplify and speed up part replacement without the need for manual switching operations. Additionally, they maintain a stable vacuum level even when the suction cup is not holding an object. This ensures greater energy and cost efficiency for your vacuum system.
Industries that benefit from SMC Vacuum Components
SMC vacuum components are designed to meet the needs of various industries requiring reliable and efficient solutions for their industrial applications. Some of the key sectors utilizing our vacuum products include:
- Food Industry
- Life Science Industry
- Automotive Industry
- Electronics Industry
How do you set up an efficient industrial vacuum system?
To get the best performance from your industrial vacuum system, it needs to be configured for the specific application. To do this, you need to consider:
- The weight and shape of your workpiece
- The surface finish of the part
- Cycle time and transfer path
- The vacuum level, size and number of suction cups you need
Although many manufacturers still design their pneumatic systems and components for a standard workshop pressure of 7 bar, at SMC we know that energy costs can be reduced by up to 29% when pressure is reduced to 4 bar. So by accepting the challenge of a 4 bar factory, you can reduce your costs and increase your corporate social responsibility, without losing efficiency.
If you need help configuring your industrial vacuum system, you can use our vacuum component selector tool or contact our experts for more advice on finding the right vacuum solution for you.
