Technical Overview

The Festo VASB-15-1/8-PUR-B (Part Number: 1395671) is a high-performance vacuum suction cup engineered for dynamic industrial automation. Featuring a 15mm diameter round bellows design with 1.5 convolutions, it provides excellent adaptability to uneven workpieces. Constructed from highly durable Polyurethane (PUR) with a Shore hardness of 60, this blue suction cup resists wear while offering a reliable grip. It is equipped with a 5.6mm height compensator to absorb mechanical shock and adjust for varying part dimensions during pick-and-place operations. The robust brass screwed plug integrates a standard G1/8 vacuum connection. Delivering 8.5 N of holding force at a nominal operating pressure of -0.7 bar, the VASB-15 series operates smoothly in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +60°C, making it an ideal choice for electronics handling, automated packaging, and robotic assembly systems.
