1. Variable-Format Box Palletizing End-Effector
Integration into large-area vacuum gripping systems (foam or cup matrix) on robotic palletizers handling mixed-size cardboard boxes. The valves are installed between the vacuum generator and each M10 suction cup port.
Problem SolvedIn high-mix palletizing lines, a single gripper must handle boxes of varying dimensions. Without security valves, cups not covering the smaller boxes would suck air, causing system-wide vacuum loss and dropped loads. The ISV-M10 automatically closes unused ports (flow > 2 l/min), allowing the active cups to maintain full holding force (-0.95 bar) on the box without requiring tool changes.

2. Automated Handling of Sheet Metal with Cutouts
Used in automotive stamping press lines where robotic transfer arms move metal sheets that may contain pre-punched holes or irregular geometries (e.g., door panels or chassis frames).
Problem SolvedStandard suction spiders cannot grip sheets with holes efficiently because cups landing on voids cause massive leakage. The ISV-M10 isolates these 'leaking' cups immediately upon suction activation, preserving the vacuum level for the cups that have made contact. The ≤ 8 bar ejector pulse capability ensures rapid blow-off for fast cycle times during the release phase.

3. Beverage Layer Depalletizing System
Implemented in canning and bottling plants on layer-picking grippers that lift entire tiers of jars or cans simultaneously. The valves are screwed directly into the M10 ports of the vacuum plenum.
Problem SolvedWhen lifting a full layer of products, a single missing or damaged can would typically break the vacuum seal for the entire layer, causing a line stoppage. The ISV-M10 acts as a check valve, closing off the specific port for the missing item while maintaining suction for the remaining units. The 18g lightweight design minimizes the payload on the robot arm.
