Vacuum gripping enables the fast handling of a wide variety of fragile or complex-shaped objects, including cylindrical or oval parts such as bottles.

It is carried out using oblong suction cups integrated into an automated system.
The suction cup provides the connection between the workpiece and the gripping system.

The difference between the vacuum created inside the suction cup and the atmospheric pressure allows the suction cup to adhere to the object.
This pressure difference is obtained by connecting the suction cup to a vacuum generator, also known as a Venturi ejector or vacuum pump.
