Festo Suction Cup Aluminium ESF-4A

This suction cup is a pneumatic handling component designed to create vacuum grip in automated systems. It connects directly to pressurised Air lines via a threaded port and is suited to pick-and-place tasks where controlled Airflow and moderate temperature tolerance are required.

• Metric thread connection enables straightforward integration into fittings • Male port design simplifies attachment to supply lines • Aluminium construction reduces component weight for moving assemblies • High-flow capacity of 260 L/min supports Rapid pick-and-place cycles • Rated for continuous use up to 60°C in heated environments • RoHS-compliant material selection supports regulatory requirements

• Suitable for robotic pick-and-place in electronics assembly • Ideal for handling light mechanical parts on conveyor systems • Used with pneumatic grippers in automated electrical manufacturing • Can be used for surface transfer of components in industrial automation

It employs a metric-threaded port with a male fitting type for direct connection to metric pneumatic tubing and adapters.

The aluminium body offers a favourable strength-to-weight ratio, reducing inertia during Rapid cycles and limiting added load on actuators.

The device is specified to pass 260 L/min of intake air, enabling swift evacuation of the cup for fast cycle rates.

The component is designed for operation at temperatures up to 60°C without degradation of specified function.
