Festo 50 mm Bellow Nitrile Rubber (NBR) Suction Cup ESV-50-CN

This suction cup is a vacuum handling pad designed for automated pick-and-place and material handling tasks in industrial environments. It features a flexible bellows profile to accommodate irregular surfaces while maintaining contact during lift operations. The product is intended for use where reliable vacuum gripping with a top-mounted connection is required and meets relevant RoHS restrictions.

• Nitrile rubber material provides chemical and oil resistance for robust grip
• Bellows pad design compensates for surface irregularities, improving seal
• 63.4 N holding force supports secure lifts for moderate payloads
• Top connection enables compact integration with end‑of‑arm tooling
• RoHS conformity reduces restricted substance concerns in installations

• Suitable for handling painted and oily sheet metal components
• Ideal for automated assembly lines in manufacturing plants
• Used with robotic end‑effectors for carton and package gripping
• Can be used for temporary holding during CNC machining setups
• Appropriate for pick-and-place of plastic moulded parts

The nitrile rubber compound offers resistance to oils and many hydrocarbons, making it suitable for lightly contaminated surfaces where a secure grip is required.

The bellows geometry allows axial deformation to conform to uneven profiles, helping maintain vacuum integrity and reducing air ingress during handling.

It uses a top-mounted connection to link directly to vacuum tubing or a compact fitting, simplifying attachment to robotic tooling and vacuum lines.

Use the stated 63.4 N holding force as the static grip capacity when selecting for component mass and safety margins
