Designed to meet the growing demands of modern logistics, packaging, and wood processing industries, these new grippers offer unmatched flexibility, energy efficiency, and intelligent technology for handling diverse workpieces. With this launch, Schmalz continues to empower businesses to automate processes, reduce operating costs, and enhance sustainability.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>Grip whatever comes your way: Different materials, changing workpieces, and increasing cost pressure require systems that can adapt flexibly. With the vacuum area gripping systems FA-X \u002F FA-M, launching two solutions that move parts of all kinds safely and save energy at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>If the companies want to palletize, depalletize, pick, or sort automatically, they need to handle different workpieces safely and efficiently. This is a real challenge in logistics, wood processing, and packaging. With the vacuum area gripping systems FA-X and FA-M, Schmalz presents a solution that is both flexible and energy-efficient. Applications use them to move workpieces made of wood, sheet metal, glass, and plastics. These can also be porous, flexible, and irregularly shaped. Thanks to their low weight and minimal interfering contours, the end effectors are ideal for robot arms. The surface gripping systems are optimized for sustainable processes and versatile material handling and offer maximum efficiency with minimum consumption.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Intelligent Technology for Sustainable Processes \u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>The surface gripping systems have a vacuum booster that ensures very short cycles. The FA-X variant has an integrated vacuum generator, while the FA-M model is designed for external vacuum sources. They are available with either suction cups or a flexible sealing foam with adhesive film. Both area gripping systems offer variants for different requirements: from the basic version to the intelligent version with LED display, energy-saving function, and integrated sensors. The smart version shows data on energy consumption and system status directly on the display, but also sends it to a smartphone via IO-Link or an app. This allows companies to keep an eye on their processes at all times and optimize maintenance intervals in a targeted manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Save Energy, Lower Costs \u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>The energy-saving function reduces energy consumption by up to 80 percent because individual nozzle lines can be switched in a targeted manner. This not only reduces operating costs, but also saves resources. Downtimes cost money. That’s why Schmalz focuses on simple maintenance: workers can replace the sealing foam in just a few minutes thanks to the quick-change adhesive film. The ejector is easily accessible. As an optional extra, an integrated sensor system in the sealing foam detects whether the workpiece has been gripped correctly—this increases process reliability and minimizes waste.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cp>With the vacuum area gripping systems FA-X \u002F FA-M, Schmalz offers a solution that automates processes, lowers operating costs, and makes production fit for the future. Customers benefit from flexible, maintenance-friendly, and intelligent technology that can be seamlessly integrated into existing systems.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\r\n\u003Cp>For more information: \u003Cstrong>www.schmalz.com\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>","https:\u002F\u002Fmedia.magicwandmedia.in\u002Fposts\u002FOctober2025\u002FmQUi3KycS9UM6jBwo0ap.jpg","https:\u002F\u002Fmedia.magicwandmedia.in\u002Fsocial\u002Fhorizontal\u002Fposts\u002FOctober2025\u002FmQUi3KycS9UM6jBwo0ap.jpg","2025-10-27T19:08:57+05:30","MWM Desk","News",0,"The new FA-X and FA-M systems provide versatile handling for wood, metal, glass, and plastic workpieces.\nIntegrated smart sensors and IO-Link connectivity allow for real-time monitoring and optimized maintenance cycles.\nThe advanced energy-saving function reduces operational consumption by up to 80 percent.","Schmalz is pushing the boundaries of vacuum automation with the launch of their new FA-X and FA-M area gripping systems.
