Hold firmly to the sheet

In many industries where sheet metal is handled, vacuum is increasingly used. Vacuum cups have become an essential element for safety, reliability and productivity. With the CTC high-performance bell cups, Coval aims to offer manufacturers the best features of flat and bellows cups to improve system efficiency.

The main feature of this new range of CTC cups is their bell shape. This new design combines the advantages of flat and bellows cups. They have the strength and slip resistance of the former and the ability of the latter to grip complex or angular shapes. Their great flexing capacity makes them easily adaptable to gripping flat, curved or angular sheets. The non-slip stops allow heavy and oily sheets to be moved quickly and efficiently, while the medium stops grip thin sheets securely without deforming them.

The CTC heavy-duty bell cups are available in a wide range of diameters (4 diameters from 40 to 100 mm) and mounting configurations (3/8G with external or internal thread and 32 mm square) to perfectly adapt to all types of applications. All bell cups are made of TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) which has excellent wear and oil resistance.

Wide range of applications

The versatility, robustness, reliability and safety features of the new high-performance CTC bell cups make them ideal for use in any industry where sheet metal or metal parts are handled as part of the process:

• Feeding machines such as folding machines, cutting machines, etc.
• Picking up sheets or parts for transport to stamping presses and storage.

The CTC suction pads are suitable for use in the automotive industry in the various stages of the manufacturing process: stamping, assembly or assembly. Coval has built a long-standing partnership with major automotive manufacturers, providing them with products that meet their productivity expectations.

Features that make the difference

• Speed: ideal for high-speed, high-throughput presses and for machining large parts (body side panels, roofs, doors, etc.).
• Light weight: polyamide inserts.
• Versatility:offers excellent grip for all flat, curved or angular sheet metal due to its bell shape.
• Durability: excellent wear and oil resistance due to thermoplastic polyurethane.
• Safety: anti-slip stops for oily sheets.
