Patru modalități în care puteți eficientiza performanța sistemului dumneavoastră de vacuum

 Martina Höller, Manager de Produs Tehnologie Electrică CEE, SMC Austria

IUNIE 2022

Odată cu creșterea prețurilor la energie în Europa, eficiența energetică a devenit o prioritate pentru toate unitățile de producție și de procesare care utilizează sisteme de manipulare cu vacuum. Din fericire, pe baza experienței noastre, SMC vă poate indica patru modalități simple prin care puteți reduce consumul de energie al sistemului dumneavoastră de vacuum. Utilizarea unei cantități mai mici de energie pentru operațiile de ridicare/transfer, va contribui direct la profitabilitatea dumneavoastră, dar în același timp va susține și eforturile industriei de a ajunge la zero emisii de carbon.

Îmbunătățiți productivitatea sistemului dumneavoastră de manipulare cu vacuum

   Irina Hermann, Manager de Produs, SMC Germania

IUNIE 2022

Este cunoscut faptul că cele mai importante aspecte ale oricărui sistem de vacuum sunt aplicația și configurația sistemului, care implică în mod obișnuit metoda de generare a vacuumului astfel că utilizarea ejectoarelor sau pompelor pentru generarea presiunii negative și transfera piesele de lucru este decisivă. Cu toate acestea, există multe alte componente importante ale sistemului care, dacă sunt ignorate, ar putea duce la performanțe slabe ale unității de manipulare vacuum.

Don’t get sucked into poor vacuum system configuration

 By Tom Litster, Engineer, Air Equipment, SMC European Technical Centre

JUNE 2022
The performance of your vacuum handling system is typically only as good as its configuration for the specific application in hand. This of course makes direct reference to the workpiece you are looking to lift or transfer in terms of its weight and shape, for example, while further considerations include target cycle time and stroke travel. Upon establishing these factors it becomes possible to experiment with vacuum level, pad diameter and number of pads to deliver the optimal-performing vacuum handling system, one that is fast, reliable and energy-efficient.
