At Fachpack 2025, Schmalz will be presenting innovative solutions for the flexible and efficient handling of a wide range of products - from cartons and pouches to sensitive foodstuffs.

The new FA-X and FA-M vacuum area gripping systems impress with their versatility, intelligent data output and energy savings of up to 80 per cent.

Reliable food automation

With the mGrip finger gripper, sensitive products such as croissants or pieces of meat can be moved gently and automatically. Hygienic design and simple configuration make it ideal for the food industry.

Focus on palletising and logistics

The underfeed gripper handles even fragile packaging stably and is suitable for end-of-line and mixed palletising tasks. The JumboFlex and JumboErgo vacuum tube lifters ensure ergonomic lifting.

Communication without cables

Thanks to IO-Link Wireless, data can be transmitted wirelessly and reliably between sensors, actuators and control units - a solution that is particularly advantageous in robotics.
