Standard suction plates PX and P2X for OCTOPUS systems
The suction plates PX described on this page are installed as standard on all OCTOPUS systems and, therefore, can be supplied as a spare or replacement part.
They are made with anodised aluminium sheets with calibrated holes equidistant from each other and coated with a special perforated foam rubber with two different thicknesses: 15 mm for suction plates of the PX range; 30 mm, for special suction plates of the P2X range.
The foam rubber is also perforated at the calibrated holes, but its holes have a diameter of 10-15 mm. The use of calibrated holes allows for exact calculation of the flow rate of the vacuum generator to be used, to ensure that, even in the presence of losses due to transpiration or even in case of failure to cover the object to be gripped, a minimum sufficient level of vacuum remains for gripping and handling the load.
Their lifting force was calculated considering a level of vacuum of at least -75 Kpa, the total surface of the holes within the foam rubber and a factor of safety 3.

Standard suction plates with shut-off valves PXE and P2XE for OCTOPUS systems
The suction plates described on this page are the same as the previously described PX and P2X, but with the addition of shut-off valves inserted in each hole. In absence of an object to grip or in case of a defective grip of the foam rubber, the shut-off valves automatically close the suction inlet, thus preventing the level of vacuum from decreasing on the other gripping holes.
This feature reduces the vacuum generator flow rate compared to standard OCTOPUS systems, to the benefit of energy savings. Moreover, the particular shape of our shut-off valves allows the use of the gripping surfaces in any position.

Vacuum cup suction plates PV for OCTOPUS systems
These suction plates provided with vacuum cups have been designed to ensure a better grip on uneven and very flexible surfaces (pasta or candy bags, blister or skin-film packs, thin cardboard boxes, etc.), which are difficult to grip with suction plates coated with foam rubber. We recommend using bellows cups.
Thanks to their great flexibility, they adapt themselves to any gripping surface, following its profiles and movements during the lifting phase, guaranteeing a firm and safe grip. They are made with anodised aluminium, as are the vacuum cup supports screwed onto them, which are 1/8” gas supports for the PV version and 1/4”gas for the P2V version. They are each equipped with a calibrated hole.
The cups are cold assembled onto the supports with no adhesives and can be provided in other compounds. Also these suction plates are perfectly interchangeable with the standard ones.
Their lifting force has been calculated considering a level of vacuum of at least -75 Kpa, the total vacuum cup surface and a safety factor 3.Upon request, they can be provided with different cups, as long as the diameter does not exceed 22 mm for the PV suction plates and 45 mm for the P2V ones.

OCTOPUS vacuum gripping bars - General description
These bars have been created to further facilitate the installation of OCTOPUS vacuum gripping systems on palletising robots. They are based on the same operating principle and, in addition to the advantages and technical features of the standard OCTOPUS, are equipped with a grooved support plate to allow quick installation on the machine and easy positioning with respect to the load to be gripped.
They are in fact composed of:
- A slotted anodised aluminium fixing plate for quick installation onto the machine
- One or more compressed air-fed vacuum generators, depending on their size
- A connection equipped with quick coupling for feeding compressed air to the generators
- An anodised aluminium box, open on one side, with two air inlet connections inside at the end of the cycle, for quick restoration of the atmospheric pressure and one for possible installation of a vacuum switch.
- A suction plate sealing the box, also made with anodised aluminium, with calibrated holes equidistant from each other and coated with a special perforated foam rubber. This suction plate can thus perfectly adapt to any gripping surface, whether it be smooth, rough or irregular. With the same bar, for example, it is possible to grip and move wooden joists or metal profiles and the pallet that supports them.
The OCTOPUS gripping bars described so far are the standard bars: they can be supplied upon request with suction plates and with shut-off valves and, to make them even lighter, the aluminium parts can be made of Polizene, a thermoplastic material that decreases the weight by about 40%.

Special PH and P2H suction plates for octopus systems for gripping empty cans, tins, jars and vials without lids or caps
The special suction plates illustrated and described on this page can be installed on OCTOPUS systems to replace the PX and P2X plates.
They are made of anodised aluminium sheets with holes equidistant from each other and coated with a special sponge rubber, microperforated at the holes in the aluminium sheet, in two different thicknesses: 15 mm for PH suction plates and 30 mm for P2H plates.
The use of calibrated holes makes it possible to calculate the flow rate of the vacuum generator to be installed on the OCTOPUS SYSTEM, to ensure that, even in the presence of losses due to transpiration or the absence of some objects to be picked up, there is always a minimum vacuum value, sufficient to grip even the few remaining containers.
The use of these suction plates is recommended for gripping and handling empty cans, tins, vials and jars made of various materials and without lids or caps.
The lifting force of the container will be directly proportional to the degree of vacuum generated on the surface of the mouth of the can or vial to be picked up.
Note: These plates are not suitable for picking up empty plastic or glass water and wine bottles.
All flexible containers must be previously vacuum tested to avoid the risk of implosion.
