VMECA vacuum conveyors are industrial-grade systems designed and built to transport dry, free-flowing materials, including but not limited to: powders, granules, food ingredients, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, plastics etc... In a clean, safe, and efficient manner. Ideal when dust control, hygiene and low maintenance are priorities. Made from polished acid‑proof stainless steel (options in 304 or 316) Vacuum Conveyors require minimal maintenance and are available with automatic filter‑cleaning systems. Also available with ATEX approval for explosive or dust-prone environments, offering hygienic solutions tailored for sensitive industries like food and pharma. Simmatic Engineers evaluate and test each application to deliver bespoke solutions for hygienic industrial conveying operations.

VMECA vacuum cups 

Suction pads used in pick and place equipment and handling systems. They grip, lift, hold and move objects by creating a seal and suction with a vacuum source. The required type of cups will depend on the object size and shape, surface type and application. The cups connect to vacuum generators or pumps to create the suction needed for automated gripping and transfer. Soft, flexible components commonly used on robot arms, packaging machines, and automated material handling systems. Numerous options for suction lip size, cup material, and fittings.

A&T Fluid Solutions Pneumatic Valves

Pneumatic valves = control air in machines

A&T pneumatic valves are components used in industrial automation to control compressed air. They start, stop and direct airflow to operate machines such as cylinders and actuators.

They include types such as manual and flow control valves and are designed for reliable use in automated systems like packaging, manufacturing, and robotics.

🔌 A&T Fluid Solutions Solenoid Valves (Electrovalves)

Solenoid valves = pneumatic valves controlled by electricity

Solenoid valves are a key part of the A&T range. They are electrically operated valves that use a coil to open or close airflow automatically.

When powered, the solenoid creates a magnetic field that moves a small internal part to control the air passing through the valve.

A&T solenoid valves are commonly:

Compact and fast-acting

Available in 2/2, 3/2, 5/2, and 5/3 configurations

Used in manifolds or directly on machines

Designed for efficient automation control

Together, pneumatic and solenoid valves are the “on/off switches” and control system for most automated air-powered machinery:

ISO Valves, 10mm Micro Solenoid Valves, 2/2, 3/2, 5/2, 5/3 Solenoid Valves, Body Ported Valves, Manifold Mounted Valves, Prewired Sub D Connector Valve manifolds, High Flow Solenoid Valves, Vacuum valves, Low Pressure Valves, Sub Base Mounted Valves, Coax Valves.
