FPC/FPCX 
UNIVERSAL VACUUM SOLUTIONS 

GENERAL INFORMATION

Focusing on the needs of its customers in the food industry, COVAL has developed a series of particularly innovative silicone cups, dedicated to the high-speed handling of flexible packaging. 

Combining great flexibility and food compatibility, the new FPC and FPCX Series suction cups have been specially designed to optimize the handling of packed bags from 100 g to 5 kg. E.g. – FlowPack, DoyPack, etc. 

The shape of the lip has been designed to match the deformation of flexible packaging and ensure the best possible seal during positioning, which, as an additional advantage, allows for a reduction in power of the vacuum generator. The FPC/FPCX suction cups are also equipped with cleats that stiffen the lip and reinforce the clamping effect. 

➊ Thin and wavy flower-shaped lips that perfectly mold to the packaging, whatever the shape. 

➋ Internal cleats that allow for optimized vacuum while preventing any crushing and also strengthen the hold on the product being handled. 

➌ Fittings featuring a lateral vacuum distributor that prevents any loss in efficiency when the product is held. 

➍ Materials: Food-grade silicone and plastic insert meet FDA and CE standards. 

ADVANTAGES
