Suction Cups for Packaging Automation Packaging lines are notorious for high cycle speeds and dusty environments. When selecting cups for this sector, consider: Porosity Handling: Cardboard is naturally porous. To maintain a grip, you need high-flow vacuum generators or cups with specialized foam seals. Food Safety: If the cup touches raw or packaged food, it must be FDA-compliant and often “detectable“ (impregnated with metal fragments) so it can be caught by X-ray scanners if a piece breaks off. High-Speed Stability: In “delta“ style picking robots, the cup must resist lateral forces to prevent the product from swinging or dropping during rapid directional changes.
