vacuum gripper

    Hello everyone,

    i have a question regarding a vacuum gripper for a cup,

    i want to know if its only one soleinoid used to control the vacuum(only one RO or 6 RO?), if yes only one output used to control it how to know that gripper is only picking 3 cups insteads of 6 cups ( to monitor each vacuum on gripper) ?

    thank you

    It's entirely up to how you design it. You could use anything from 1 to 6 solenoid valves, but the pneumatic plumbing would have to change for choice.

    Monitoring each cup depends on the pneumatic design. You might have one vacuum generator plumbed to all 6 cups, or you might have individual vacuum on each cup, or anything in between. Each vacuum manifold would need a pneumatic sensor.
