When handling sensitive objects such as fruit, Vaccon Spring Levelers feature a soft touch allowing compliance for end-of-arm tools to ensure that all cups make contact. This is especially important when handling large objects such as sheets of plywood that may be warped More... and the tool has multiple vacuum cups that must make contact.For design flexibility, Vaccon offers a large range of sizes and travel lengths 0.2" (5mm) to 3.6" (91mm) to accommodate the necessary over-driving by the lifting mechanism to bring all cups in contact. Vaccon’s Spring Leveler design surpasses the competition. We offer large thru-bores that allow higher vacuum flow to overcome leakage and for rapid evacuation to ensure safe handling operations.The Series 3 Levelers have high performance bearings that prevent binding from side loading, provide a smooth operation over long strokes and prolong leveler life.Standard Spring Levelers:3 Series12 modelsNickel plated steel shafts, stainless steel springs and brass mounting nutsSpring Leveler Options:Mounting brackets compatible with 1/4" (6.5mm) T-slot or 5/16" (10mm) T-slot extrusionsVacuum cups and vacuum fittingsCustom materials (FDA approved) and sizes available – consult factoryIdeal Applications:Automotive automationMaterial handlingRobotic assemblyPick and placeSheet feedingRemoving parts from moldsBenefits/Features:Smooth operation – reduces shock to an object that is being liftedLightweight – reduces stress to robotic end effectorsHigh flow – maximize performance and holding force for porous objectsFlexible mounting options for robotic end effectors/End-of-Arm ToolingReduces machine indexing when picking up material from a stack Less

Vaccon SLB40 Heavy Duty Spring Levelers feature a gentle touch when handling delicate objects such as fruit, allowing end-of-arm tools to ensure that all cups make contact, even with uneven surfaces. This is especially important when handling large warped objects such More... as sheets of plywood and the tool has multiple vacuum cups that must make contact. Vaccon’s Spring Leveler design surpasses the competition, offering large thru-bores that deliver higher vacuum flow to overcome leakage and for rapid evacuation ensuring safe handling operations. The SLB40 Series Heavy Duty Spring Levlers offer a large range of sizes and travel lengths from 0.4" (10mm) to 3.6" (91mm), accommodating the necessary over-driving by the lifting mechanism to bring all cups in contact with the parts.Vaccon Heavy Duty Spring Levelers utilize a rigid mounting bracket for strong, solid connections to 1.5" (40mm) extrusions, ideal for applications which require lifting heavy loads without deflection.Standard Spring Levelers:2 Series: 1/8" and 1/4" NPT male thread8 Models: Shaft Lengths from 2.7" to 9.0" (69mm to 229mm), Travel lengths from 0.40" to 3.60" (10mm to 91mm)Nickel plated steel shafts, stainless steel springs, high performance bearings and aluminum bodyBody dimensions: 1.5" x 1.5" x 1.0" (38mm x 38mm x 25mm)Spring Leveler Options:Vacuum cups and vacuum fittingsSwivel attachment (for Series 3 only) - see CSJ3 Vacuum Cup Swivel JointsIdeal Applications:Robotic End-of-Arm ToolingPress load and unload automotive automationRobotics assemblyPick and placeSheet feedingStamping press transferFeatures/Benefits:Easy to assemble, modular End-of-Arm Tooling components – Minimal design time requiredDurable – Rigid mounting design for heavy, high impact loadsSmooth operation – Reduces shock to an object that is being liftedLightweight – To maximize robot payload and increase robot speedHigh flow – Maximize performance and holding force for handling porous objectsFlexible mounting options facilitates End-of-Arm Tooling tool design  Less
