The SMC ZXP-X1 is a plug-and-play vacuum gripper that consolidates a vacuum ejector, air supply and release valves, pressure sensor, and suction pad into a single lightweight assembly weighing 0.84 kg.
Designed for collaborative robot applications, the unit simplifies pneumatic connections by operating with a single compressed-air tube and an M8 electrical connection.
The gripper delivers a maximum vacuum pressure of −84 kPa and suction flow up to 17 L/min, handling workloads up to 7 kg across pick-and-place operations.
Its modular suction pad design permits configuration by pad size, material, and shape to suit flat, curved, porous, or delicate surfaces.
The ZXP-X1 conforms to ISO 9409-1-50-4-M6 mounting standards, enabling direct installation on Universal Robots and other cobot platforms that support the specification.
Typical applications include packaging lines, lightweight assembly tasks, laboratory automation, and flexible handling of small parts in collaborative environments where fast deployment and minimal wiring are priorities.
