At "Robot Technology Japan 2024" held in Nagoya, we showcased a demonstration of the FCX50, which has received positive feedback for its new product. We offer suction cups that are ideal for gripping fruits and pouches with uneven surfaces. The innovative multi-lip design of the fruit suction cup "FCX50" is perfect for handling fruits with diverse shapes and surfaces that are prone to leaks, making suction difficult. To ensure detection by metal detectors, a small amount of metal powder is added to the food-grade silicone during manufacturing. Here is the video (YouTube): https://youtu.be/45LptKDdTbM

Fruit picking requires flexibility. To ensure a reliable process, suction cups that can handle complex surfaces and various shapes are necessary. Piab's new metal detection-compatible product, the "FCX50," meets these conditions. It features a flexible bellows that adapts even when the center of gravity is off, and a multi-lip design that accommodates diverse surface adhesion. The innovative multi-lip design of the fruit suction cup FCX50 is ideal for handling fruits with difficult-to-adhere surfaces that are prone to leaks. The excellent adhesion performance of Piab's new fruit suction cup reduces air leakage, allowing for the use of smaller vacuum pumps, which contributes to energy savings. To ensure detection by metal detectors, a small amount of metal powder is added to food-grade silicone during manufacturing.

The innovative multi-lip design fruit suction cup "FCX50" is ideal for handling fruits with difficult-to-adhere surfaces that are prone to leaking, thanks to its diverse shapes. To ensure detection by metal detectors, a small amount of metal powder is added to the food-grade silicone during manufacturing. ■ Designed to adhere at low vacuum levels, it allows for gentle and secure handling of fruits without damaging them. ■ It can accommodate fruits of various sizes, allowing for picking both narrow and wide parts of the fruit. ■ Even if the suction cup is applied at an angle due to a misaligned center of gravity on the fruit, the flexible bellows allow the lip to adapt and align properly for a secure grip. ■ Compliant with FDA 21 CFR 177.2600, EU 1935/2004, and EU 2023/2006 regulations. This suction cup features a unique structure and original design, enabling it to adhere to various fruits. Watch the suction of a pineapple. Video (YouTube) here: https://youtu.be/mharMexCB2Q
