2.3.3 Vacuum moduleVacuum generatorThe vacuum module has an integrated vacuum generator that is designed with amaximum payload of 150 g. The actual payload capacity depends on the followingfactors:• Suction tool design and the choice of suction cups• The surface structure of the object being picked• The pickup point and the CoG of the object being picked• Robot motion while the object is picked• Air pressure input to the robotVacuum pressure sensorThe air pressure of the vacuum module can be monitored in real time using anin-built vacuum sensor. This makes it possible to detect whether the object iscorrectly picked up by the suction tool.Blow-off actuatorTo minimize cycle time and ensure accurate drop-off of the picked objects, ablow-off actuator is integrated in the vacuum module.Product manual - IRB 14000 gripper 293HAC054949-001 Revision: H© Copyright 2015-2018 ABB.
