Standard nitrile or polyurethane suction cups degrade or melt when handling newly molded, hot plastic parts. The ESS-50-BS uses VMQ (silicone) material capable of withstanding temperatures up to 180 °C. Additionally, the 1.5 convolution bellows and 11 mm height compensator allow the cup to adapt to curved or slightly uneven molded surfaces with a minimum radius of 150 mm, preventing dropped parts during high-speed extraction.

Moving hot food items requires end-of-arm tooling that is both heat-resistant and compliant with food safety standards. The VMQ material is food-compatible and withstands high process temperatures up to 180 °C. The 50 mm suction cup provides a strong 72.6 N holding force at -0.7 bar nominal pressure to lift heavy meal trays, while the bellows design accommodates variations in tray lid height without crushing the food.

Handling curved glass panels requires a vacuum pad that conforms precisely to the contour without leaving permanent chemical marks or slipping during vertical orientation. The 1.5 convolution bellows and 150 mm minimum workpiece radius allow the cup to securely seal against curved windshields. The 38 N lateral force rating ensures the glass does not slip when the robotic arm tilts the pane vertically, while the soft Shore hardness 50 silicone prevents scratching.
