What is a silicone vacuum cup? Let's find out with us through the article below!
What is a vacuum cup?
Vacuum cups are effective tools, specially designed to lift and move heavy objects in many different industries. The product is made from elastic materials such as rubber or silicone. The vacuum cup is designed with a hole in the center to create vacuum pressure.
Vacuum cups come in many different sizes and shapes, suitable for a variety of applications. With high durability, large load-bearing capacity and the ability to operate in humid and dusty environments, the suction cup is a flexible tool for many working environments. As an excellent choice for lifting and moving heavy objects, the vacuum cup brings high performance, ensuring safety during use. To achieve optimal efficiency, it is very important to fully comply with the manufacturer's instructions for use.

Operating principle
The principle of operation of the suction cup is based on vacuum suction. When placing the cup on a flat surface, the air in the hole of the cup will be sucked out. Thereby creating a strong suction between the cup and the surface, enough to lift and hold heavy objects.
Silicon vacuum cup processing parameters
Industrial silicon processing has heat resistance, high elasticity, chemical resistance and high durability.
- Number of layers: 1 layer; 2 layers; 3 layers
- Outer diameter: Depends on the size of the object to be sucked.
- Cup wall thickness: Affects suction and durability.
- Height: Depends on design and application.
- Hardness (Shore A): 30 - 70 Shore A, depending on the application requirements (the higher the Shore A, the harder the cup).
- Temperature resistance: -40°C to 220°C, suitable for harsh environments or in high-temperature production.
Typical application of vacuum cup
Rubber suction cups have many wide applications. They are used in different systems to clamp materials, pack goods. Or in composite vacuum lifters, robots, and various crane systems.
- Suction cup for packaging: Used in the process of packing goods.
- Suction cup for sheet metal processing: Used in applications related to sheet metal.
- Cup straws for wood treatment: Applied in the wood processing industry.
- Suction cup for plastic film and paper: Used in handling plastic film and paper.
- Soft suction cup for electronics: Used in the electronics industry.
- Silicone suction cups for high temperature applications: Suitable for applications that require high heat resistance.
- NBR suction cup for gas/oil objects: Used in applications related to gas or oil.
- EPDM suction plate for glass: Applied in glass processing and installation.
