OnRobot, a provider of hardware and software solutions for collaborative applications, announced the release of its new VGP30 vacuum gripper. This powerful and robust 30 kg (66 lbs.) payload gripper is designed to palletize boxes and handle irregular shapes and porous surfaces, even those constructed from cost-saving, thinner cardboard. The VGP30 is ready for immediate deployment out of the box and includes all the hardware and software needed for all leading robot brands.

"The VGP30 is engineered to maximize manufacturers' throughput and flexibility," said Enrico Krog Iversen, CEO of OnRobot. "With its high payload capacity, intelligent vacuum control, and seamless integration, the VGP30 enables users to automate demanding palletizing tasks with ease, reduce energy costs, and achieve same-day installation".

Thomas Lorenscheit, CEO of OnRobot partner Lorenscheit Automatisierungstechnik, emphasizes the vacuum gripping of the VGP30: “It’s incredibly strong, - and as easy to use as any other OnRobot gripper,” he said, adding how finding one reliable gripper for palletizing different types of cardboard boxes has always been a challenge. “The VGP30 stands out by delivering consistently high performance, whether we're handling premium or lower-grade cardboard".

Key features and benefits of the VGP30:

  • High Payload: Capable of handling up to 30 kg (66 lbs.).
  • Immediate Deployment: Ready to use out of the box, including all necessary hardware and software for integration with all leading robot brands.
  • Intelligent Vacuum Control: Automatically adjusts to any box size or interlayer, optimizing air consumption and reducing energy costs.
  • Multichannel Capability: Provides failsafe and flexible operations. The VGP30 has two channels that can be operated together or independently, convenient for handling small boxes.
  • Integration with D:PLOY: The VGP30 integrates with OnRobot’s D:PLOY platform, the first automatic software development platform that enables the configuration of complete, off-the-shelf robotic systems for high-mix manufacturing applications.
