The SMC ZXPE5 is a self-contained electric vacuum gripper that integrates a vacuum pump, vent valve, pressure sensor, and suction cup in a single 0.556 kg unit with 5 N maximum gripping force.
The design eliminates the need for external compressed air supply.
This model is UR-certified for use with UR3e, UR5e, UR10e, and UR16e cobots in PNP configuration, offering plug-and-play installation through an M8 connector.
The gripper operates in three selectable power-optimized modes and includes a 360-degree status indicator and integrated diagnostics for process monitoring.
Compatible suction cup options span flat, ribbed, bellows, thin, and multi-bellows geometries in NBR, silicone, FKM, and urethane materials, with diameters ranging from 8 mm to 32 mm.
An ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 flange enables rapid tool changes using two clamp screws.
The internal vacuum generation reduces leak paths and simplifies tubing routing in compact installations.
Maximum ambient operating temperature is 40°C.
Typical applications include pick-and-place operations, small-parts packaging, labeling, palletizing, and handling of flexible or uneven surfaces where gentle contact is required.
