When the parts to be handled are of different dimensions, some suction cups may be outside the part to be handled. In this case, the other suction cups will detach (mounting with a central venturi) or the air consumption will be very high. This problem can be avoided by mounting a ball plunger on each suction cup to cut off the flow between the venturi and the suction cup when it is too high. In other words, the ball plunger is used when handling sequences of objects of different sizes and it is not possible to detect the flow on the suction cups or stop it mechanically.
