Hardware Specification
Adaptor Plate
The VGC10 comes with an Adaptor Plate which provides extra flexibility to locate the vacuum cups in
different configurations.
The Adaptor Plate has 7 holes to use fittings with vacuum cups or blinding screws as needed. It also has
lines which show the holes that are communicated together. This is useful when using channel A and B
independently for vacuum.
The Adaptor Plate can be placed in different positions by rotating it 90º. Having as reference the letters A
and B written on the gripper housing, the Adaptor Plate can be placed to separate both channels or to
communicate them. If the Adaptor Plate is placed as in picture below on the left, both channels will be
separated, and they can be used independently or combined. If the Adaptor Plate is placed as in picture
below on the right, both channels will be communicated and a higher air flow can be achieved, although
both channels will have to be used combined.
