Vacuum Gripper for Robots 24V 6kg Payload with Blow-Off Function | VS50A-S1-M1.5

Overview of Vacuum Gripper for Robots VS50A-S1-M1.5

The VS50A-S1-M1.5 is a general-purpose electric vacuum gripper with a built-in 24V micro vacuum pump, designed for robotic pick-and-place, packaging, assembly, and automated material handling. With a compact 50 × 50 × 70mm body, 360g weight, and up to 6kg payload, it provides straightforward robot integration without requiring an external air compressor or separate vacuum generator.

Key Features of Vacuum Gripper for Robots VS50A-S1-M1.5

• Integrated 24V Micro Vacuum Pump: Vacuum is generated within the gripper itself, eliminating the need for an external vacuum generator and reducing the number of pneumatic components around the robot.
• No External Air Supply Required: The electric vacuum system operates independently from compressed air, making deployment easier on cobots, robotic arms, standalone machines, and production lines without centralized pneumatic infrastructure.
• Balanced 6kg Payload Performance: Provides up to −60kPa vacuum with a maximum payload of 6kg, covering a broad range of general pick-and-place tasks without requiring an oversized end-effector.
• Fast Blow-Off Release: Up to 0.10MPa positive pressure supports rapid vacuum breaking and workpiece release, helping shorten repetitive handling cycles.
• Compact Integrated Structure: The 50 × 50 × 70mm housing combines vacuum generation, air path, and control functions in one unit for cleaner robot-end installation.
• Easy Robot Integration: 24V DC operation and simple I/O control make the gripper straightforward to integrate into existing robot control sequences and automated equipment.
• Versatile for General Automation: Suitable for electronics, packaging, assembly, laboratory automation, automotive components, and other applications requiring repeatable vacuum gripping.

• Automotive Component Handling – Supports robotic transfer of small covers, panels, plastic components, and other parts with surfaces suitable for vacuum gripping.

How Does an Electric Vacuum Gripper Work?

The VS50A-S1-M1.5 uses a built-in electric vacuum pump to generate negative pressure without requiring an external air compressor or pneumatic vacuum system. Once powered, the integrated control system automatically manages vacuum generation and release through simple I/O signals.

Working Process

• Vacuum Generation

The built-in electric vacuum pump generates negative pressure inside the gripper.

• Workpiece Pickup

The suction cup seals against the workpiece surface, creating vacuum force for secure gripping.

• Material Handling

The robot or cobot transports the workpiece while the vacuum is maintained automatically.

• Vacuum Release

The built-in control system opens the internal valve to quickly release the workpiece at the target position.

Electrical Wiring

• Brown Wire — 24V+: Power Supply Positive
• Blue Wire — 24V−: Power Supply Ground
• Black/Yellow Wire: Release Control Signal
