Norgren M/58311/02 Flat Suction Cup - G1/2 Port 120 mm
Part Number: M/58311/02
Quick Summary
Flat suction cup M/58311/02 delivers a reliable vacuum grip for delicate, pliable materials in automated pick-and-place tasks. In tight fixtures, maintaining consistent suction and avoiding material damage can be a challenge. Industry standards often require CE conformity for European operations, SIL safety validation for automated handling, and adequate ingress protection where exposure to dust or moisture occurs. This cup is designed for compatibility with Norgren vacuum systems and common pneumatic fixtures, offering a robust, long-lasting solution that minimizes cycle time and scrap. By combining a 120 mm diameter contact area with a G1/2 port, it delivers reliable performance across diverse manufacturing lines while supporting scalable automation costs.

FAQs
Mounting M/58311/02 with standard G1/2 vacuum fittings is straightforward. Use a flat, clean mounting surface and align the cup concentric with the gripping face. Tighten fittings to recommended torque to avoid leaks, and verify compatibility with your controller’s vacuum level. This approach minimizes cycle errors and reduces gasket wear in high-speed lines.
This cup operates from -30 to 200 °C and uses a silicone elastomer that remains flexible across temperature changes. For best results, ensure cure times and vacuum levels are appropriate for your material. The combination supports reliable performance on hot plastics and cold-assisted processes, maintaining grip without frequent replacement. It tolerates typical process fluids under standard conditions.
Yes. The large 120 mm diameter flat face provides stable contact on pliable packaging like films and foils, reducing suction loss during fast cycles. For ultra-thin materials, consider adjusting vacuum level and dwell time to avoid downstream deformation while maintaining throughput. The silicone elastomer aids in gentle yet durable grips across cycles.
The data sheet lists vacuum medium, operating temperature, port size, and materials; explicit CE, SIL, or IP certifications are not shown. Verify applicable certifications in your region by consulting the datasheet and supplier approvals. In practice, Norgren’s broader product family commonly supports CE compliance in European markets, but regional validation is recommended for regulatory assurance.
Upgrading to a silicone-elastomer cup with robust aluminium body reduces scrap and tool wear by delivering consistent grip across cycles and temperatures. Lower maintenance and longer service life translate into reduced downtime, lower replacement costs, and a faster return on investment for automation lines handling delicate or variable materials.
