Will the SMC ZGS051PK work with my FANUC robot?

Yes, the SMC ZGS051PK features an ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 flange that integrates directly with FANUC robots as well as Universal Robots, Omron/Techman, and Yaskawa platforms. The integrated electrical and pneumatic connections simplify mounting to compatible arms.

How much weight can the SMC ZGS051PK vacuum gripper lift?

The SMC ZGS051PK generates 2144 N of vacuum hold force at just -75 kPa vacuum pressure, providing effective lifting across all object shapes. This makes it suitable for heavy goods, cartons, and bags in palletizing and packaging applications.

How much does the SMC ZGS051PK gripper weigh?

The gripper weighs only 1.8 kg, which significantly reduces end-of-arm mass and allows for faster robot acceleration and improved cycle times.

What is the vacuum gripper foam surface for?

The foam surface secures flexible and irregular goods without slipping, making it effective for depalletizing and handling products with porous or uneven shapes that rigid grippers cannot hold reliably.

Does this vacuum gripper require separate valves and components?

No, the SMC ZGS051PK includes integrated supply and release valves, built-in ejector, silencer, and pressure switch all in one unit. This eliminates separate components and simplifies setup and maintenance.

Vacuum Gripper vs. Mechanical Clamping for Mixed-Load Palletizing:

The SMC ZGS051PK is a vacuum-based end effector, chosen over rigid mechanical clamps when you need to handle variable shapes, fragile items, or mixed product sizes on the same line without tooling changeovers. It delivers 2144 N holding force at just 75 kPa vacuum, integrates directly into FANUC and cobot flanges, and weighs only 1.8 kg to preserve payload capacity.

For cartons, bags, and porous goods with irregular surfaces, the foam gripper pad secures items without slipping or marking, unlike hard-jaw clamps that require part-specific fixtures.
On high-speed palletizing lines, the built-in ejector and integrated valves cut cycle time instantly compared to separate pneumatic controls and external silencers.
In tight collaborative robot cells, the 1.8 kg lightweight design frees payload for larger tools or heavier parts than heavier mechanical alternatives.
For mixed-size product runs, one gripper handles everything from lightweight films to heavy cartons without setup delays or jaw reconfiguration.
