Non-contact Grippers
Non-contact suction cups ZNC and XT661 utilize the Bernoulli principle for picking up parts where direct contact is not feasible. The design makes it possible for picking up porous, uneven and serrated surfaced objects.
SMC's Bernoulli type grippers moves work pieces without leaving flaws or adsorption marks and can be used for the transfer of thin cloths, films, printed circuit boards, bubble wrap, etc.

ZNC Non Contact Grippers
The ZNC Series offers manufacturers a controllable, hygienic, and quiet solution for precision environments. It is available in aluminum or stainless steel, and features multiple ports for integrating pressure sensors. It is engineered to handle soft, lightweight or sensitive materials, such as thin films or electronics, where traditional suction cups would leave flaws, wrinkles, or adsorption marks. The integration of a Coanda grip design combined with an optional vibration suppression cover dampens the noise and physical vibrations generated by rapid airflow, which is critical when handling flimsy, soft items that tend to flutter or destabilize under standard Bernoulli vacuums.
XT Non-Contact Suction Cups
The XT series generates localized lift without requiring a closed vacuum seal and can move challenging objects, like textured manufacturing materials or heavily perforated items, without physically touching, crushing, or deforming them. What sets the XT Series apart is its range of specialized aerodynamic variations, including Low Profile Cyclone, Vortex Grip, and Bernoulli Square types. This product allows manufacturers to match airflow physics to their workpiece geometry to accurately move porous, uneven, and serrated surfaces.
