Simmatic strengthens its grip on new technology

Having successfully won the right to be sole UK distributors of the VTEC range of air operated vacuum equipment, Simmatic Automation Specialists Limited are about to strengthen their grip on the market by promoting the new micro vacuum cartridge. This extremely compact, multi-stage vacuum ejector brings a valuable tool to the European market, able to create the right amount of suction to move anything from tiny, sensitive electronic components, to half a motor vehicle at a time. The VTEC company, based in Korea, is a recognised world leader in the development, design and manufacture of high quality vacuum products. Simmatic Automation were particularly impressed by their latest innovation, the light-weight, micro cartridge, the smallest version being around the same size as a matchstick, which produces high vacuum flow using minimum compressed air. The cartridge ensures reliable operation by maintaining a regular compressed air pressure, cuts operational time and saves money. The product was eagerly embraced by Simmatic Automation Specialists, an enterprising engineering company based in Stourport-on-Severn, Worcestershire, when they spotted its potential.

Said Dale Simmonds, Director of Simmatic Automation, “We are looking forward to promoting the VTEC micro cartridge in the UK and Europe. It makes standard vacuum generators look thirsty. The micro cartridge is good for the environment, it is so small and light, but it produces the same vacuum. With low energy consumption and faster response times the advantages are lower costs, increased productivity and a longer life for the system.” Using compressed air ranging from 1.7 bar to 6 bar, the VTEC Vacuum Cartridge is able to maintain an even pressure, avoiding any fluctuations in performance. By installing the minute cartridge as close to the vacuum pads as possible, speed increases, leakage is eliminated and the size of the operating pump is reduced. In terms of improved performance, this tiny piece of kit produces a vacuum flow which is three times higher than conventional ejectors and is also highly responsive. A customised vacuum pump system is easy to create by installing one or more VTEC Vacuum Cartridges into whatever sized hole is needed, according to the function required. Simmatic Automation Specialists work with individual customers to develop the right design solution determined by the size and style the customer wants. Typical applications include packaging, food and drink production, pharmaceuticals, automotive, woodworking and printing industries.
