Low-Mark Glass Handling Solutions: Bellow and Flat Suction Cups for Clean, Reliable Performance
Selecting suction cups for surface-sensitive glass requires a review of both contact marks and holding performance. EUROTECH offers flat and bellows suction cup options for application review. Suitability should be checked against the actual glass surface, cup geometry, material compound and operating conditions.
Evaluate Surface Quality and Grip Together
Compare candidate suction cups on representative workpieces and record both visible contact marks and handling behaviour. Material selection, cup geometry, cleanliness and movement should be assessed together. Any comparison with another supplier’s material requires testing under stated conditions.
If you are considering a protective cover instead of changing the suction cup material, read our guide to suction cup covers vs. non-marking suction cups.
Bellow Suction Cups – Flexibility Meets Control
For applications requiring adaptability to slight height variations or curved surfaces, euroTECH provides 1.5-fold bellow suction cups in:
- 53 mm
- 80 mm
Review bellows movement, sealing behaviour and installation space for the selected cup. Confirm suitability for the workpiece shape and handling cycle.
Flat Suction Cups – Stability for Large Surfaces
For larger, flat glass panels, euroTECH’s flat suction cups are available in:
- 120 mm
- 150 mm
- 200 mm
Check the selected flat cup against the available contact area, glass condition and required handling motion. Confirm both surface results and grip during the intended cycle.
Confirm the Application Requirements
Before selecting a cup, confirm the material specification, allowable temperature range, mounting, required holding force and operating cycle for the exact product. Check performance on the actual workpiece; a general low-mark description does not establish suitability for every coating or process.
