SMC ZXP-X1 Vacuum Gripper, 7 kg

SMC

$4,495.00

SMC ZXP-X1 is a compact pneumatic vacuum gripper for cobots and Universal Robots, rated for 7 kg payload at 84 kPa vacuum pressure. It integrates an ejector, release valve, and pressure sensor in one unit, connecting via a single compressed-air line and M8 electrical connector to ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 mounting. Plug-and-play setup enables fast deployment on UR and compatible cobot arms for pick-and-place, packaging, and assembly across electronics, food handling, and logistics applications.

SMC ZXP-X1 is a pneumatic robot vacuum gripper engineered for collaborative robots and Universal Robots in automation applications including pick-and-place, packaging, and assembly across electronics, food handling, and logistics.

  • Maximum payload: 7 kg
  • Vacuum pressure: 84 kPa
  • Weight: 0.84 kg
  • Mounting interface: ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6

Cobot Compatibility:

SMC ZXP-X1 mounts directly via ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6, enabling seamless integration with Universal Robots and other collaborative robot platforms. This robot vacuum gripper suits flexible and modular production lines needing quick changeovers and high payload capacity.

  • Is SMC ZXP-X1 compatible with UR? Yes, Universal Robots support direct mounting and plug-and-play setup.
  • Can SMC ZXP-X1 be used with other cobots? Any cobot conforming to ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 interface can use the gripper.

Installation and Best Practices:

  • One compressed-air tube and M8 electrical connector streamline installation on UR and cobot models.
  • Plug-and-play functionality reduces deployment time and downtime.
  • Modular suction pads suit flat, curved, porous, and delicate surfaces, optimizing for electronics, consumer goods, and light industrial automation.
  • Best practice: Choose suction pads for material compatibility, and verify sensor settings for delicate or porous items.

Application Scenarios:

SMC ZXP-X1 vacuum gripper is used by manufacturers, logistics providers, and laboratories for fast pick-and-place, lightweight packaging, and precise assembly. Common uses include electronics assembly, food handling, and clean gripping of varied parts.

Alternatives and Comparison:

  • SMC ZXP-X1 integrates ejector, air supply, release valve, and sensor in one compact unit, unlike traditional suction grippers with manual valves.
  • Compared to the Schmalz VEE system (max payload 6 kg) and Piab piCOBOT® (max payload 5 kg), the SMC ZXP-X1 offers higher payload capacity (7 kg), ISO mounting, and UR-certified plug-and-play installation.

Expert Credentials and Certifications:

  • Manufacturer: SMC, global leader in pneumatic automation solutions
  • Certification: SMC ZXP-X1 is ISO 9409-1 compliant and UR-certified for Universal Robots integration

How to Install SMC ZXP-X1:

  • Verify cobot compatibility with ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 mounting standard.
  • Connect compressed-air supply and M8 signal cable.
  • Calibrate suction pad for intended part, monitor sensor feedback.
  • Test gripping operation before production deployment for safety and reliability.

  • Grips flat, curved, porous surfaces, integrated ejector and valves in one compact unit
  • Single compressed-air tube plus M8 connector cuts wiring on cobot setups
  • Holds securely at 84 kPa vacuum, delivers 17 L/min for pick-and-place
  • Lifts 7 kg payload while weighing just 0.84 kg for collaborative arms
  • Mounts directly via ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 flange, fits Universal Robots and cobots
  • Modular suction pads swap easily to match part size, material, shape
  • Deploys in minutes on UR and collaborative robots with minimal downtime
The SMC ZXP-X1 mounts directly via ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 flange and is UR-certified for Universal Robots, enabling seamless integration with plug-and-play setup. One compressed-air tube plus M8 connector cuts wiring and deploys in minutes.
The SMC ZXP-X1 grips flat, curved, and porous surfaces with modular suction pads that swap easily to match part size, material, and shape. It suits electronics, food handling, and light industrial automation applications.
The SMC ZXP-X1 lifts a maximum payload of 7 kg while weighing just 0.84 kg, making it suitable for collaborative arms and cobots. It holds securely at 84 kPa vacuum pressure.
Any cobot with an ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 mounting interface can use the SMC ZXP-X1, so compatibility extends beyond Universal Robots to other collaborative robot platforms. The gripper integrates ejector and valves in one compact unit for quick setup.
The SMC ZXP-X1 delivers 17 L/min flow rate for pick-and-place operations, enabling fast cycle times in assembly and packaging tasks. It deploys in minutes on collaborative robots with minimal downtime.

Vacuum gripper vs. mechanical gripper for cobot pick-and-place:

The SMC ZXP-X1 is a compact pneumatic vacuum gripper designed for collaborative robots handling flat, curved, and porous parts. Choose this over mechanical or electric parallel grippers when you need to grip delicate or varied surfaces without marring, or when you want to minimize wrist payload and downtime on UR and cobot platforms.

  • For electronics assembly with soft components, the integrated ejector releases parts cleanly without mechanical wear, unlike rigid jaw grippers.
  • On shared cobot cells under 5 kg per part, the 0.84 kg gripper weight preserves robot payload for heavier tools or faster moves.
  • On production lines with frequent part changeovers, modular suction pads swap in minutes without tool changer cost, cutting setup time versus fixed parallel grippers.
  • In food handling and packaging, the 84 kPa vacuum and 17 L/min flow rate deliver pick rates comparable to dedicated fixed systems, while one air tube simplifies plumbing versus multi-valve manual setups.
  • For logistics and light assembly across varied part shapes and materials, no re-programming of gripper force is needed; pad selection handles grip variation automatically.
