SIMIMPIANTI Suction Cups Group

Make and Model : The SIMIMPIANTI Suction Cup Group is a suction lifting system, specifically designed for handling panels, sheets, and other flat materials. This system is used in a variety of sectors due to its versatility and robustness.

Composition and Structure : The SIMIMPIANTI Suction Cup Unit is composed of a metal structure with suction cups of various sizes and numbers, designed to adapt to various load sizes and types. The suction cups are equipped with adjustable plates that can be configured for horizontal lifting or at variable inclinations, depending on the type of material. The main components include a vacuum pump, suction cups, adjustable arms, and an electronic control system for managing lifting and releasing operations.

Dimensions and Technical Specifications:

• Lifting Capacity : Varies depending on the model, with load capacity ranging from 100 kg up to over 1,200 kg.
• Number of Suction Cups : Common configurations include 2, 4, 6, 8 or more suction cups, depending on lifting needs and load size.
• Workable Materials : The system is ideal for lifting materials such as glass, marble, metal, wood, MDF panels, sheet metal, plastic and other flat or semi-finished materials.
• Power Source : Can be powered electrically or by compressed air, depending on the configuration.

Mechanical Characteristics:

• Movement : The suction cups allow for smooth and safe movement, with rotation and tilt options. The system can be equipped with automatic or manual tilting functions to facilitate material positioning.
• Safety : Equipped with safety vacuum tanks that maintain the load even in the event of a power loss. Safety sensors and visual indicators ensure complete operator safety.

Usage Procedure:

1. Positioning : The machine is positioned above the load to be lifted.
2. Activation : The suction cups are activated by creating a vacuum, attaching themselves firmly to the surface of the material.
3. Lifting : The load is lifted by operating the electric or pneumatic controls.
4. Handling and Positioning : The load can be moved horizontally, rotated or tilted as needed.

Matching accessories:

• Extendable arms : To reach more distant areas.
• Remote controls : For more convenient and safer management of operations.
• Additional safety sensors : To increase safety in lifting operations.

Formulas for Optimal Use : The determination of the optimal use parameters is based on the calculation of the necessary suction force, calculated as:

$$F$$

Where:

• FF $F$ is the suction force required,
• PP $P$ is the pressure (vacuum) applied by the suction cups,
• AA $A$ is the total contact area of ​​the suction cups.

Maintenance:

• Periodic checks : Regularly check the suction cup seals to avoid vacuum leaks.
• Cleaning : Regular cleaning of the contact surfaces of the suction cups to ensure optimal adhesion.
• Vacuum System Inspection : Regular checks of pumps and lines to prevent blockages or malfunctions.

Evaluation of a Good Used Car:

• Check the integrity of the suction cups : Make sure there are no cracks or excessive wear.
• Check the operation of the vacuum pumps : They must generate adequate vacuum without leaks.
• Inspect the frame and mechanical components : Look for signs of rust, wear and tear and check the strength of welds and connections.

Applications : The SIMIMPIANTI Suction Cup Group is used in the glass, stone, marble, metal, and woodworking industries, as well as in many other industrial settings requiring solutions for the safe handling of heavy and delicate materials. It is particularly appreciated for its reliability and ease of use, making it an excellent choice for those seeking quality used solutions.

Buying a used SIMIMPIANTI suction cup unit allows you to save on costs, while maintaining high operational efficiency thanks to the quality of the materials and the possibility of easy maintenance
