UNIGRIPPER | GLASS GRIPPERS
PALLETIZING & DEPALLETIZING LAYERS OF GLASS JARS
VARIOUS SHAPES & SIZES WITHOUT REQUIRING TOOL ADJUSTMENTS
Our vacuum gripping system is compatible with nearly all types of containers -used in the food industry- featuring an opening, no matter their form or dimensions :
TO 43, TO 48, TO 53, TO 58, TO 63, TO 66, TO 70, TO 82,..
Effectively managing layers with irregular spacing or uneven arrangements; no tool modifications needed to adapt to random layer configurations. Capable of handling full layers, partial layers, or individual items.
EMPTY & FILLED JARS
UniGrippers for handling jars and cans provides the ability to handle large variations of open or closed containers
The intelligent vacuum technology allows a single gripper to handle various sizes without any kind of modification of the gripper head.
The jars and cans can be of almost any material, such as glass, metal, paper or thick plastic. Grippers can be configured to handle everything from rows to partial or full layers
Depalletizing glass jars is generally done using standardized pallets from glass manufacturers.
Typical pallet dimensions are 1000x1200mm. Since pallets are rarely perfectly vertical, our standard grippers are sized at 1200x1400mm to compensate for any misalignment.

FAQ | Frequently Asked Questions
Is the gripper safe for fragile glass products ? Absolutely !
The vacuum system provides gentle, evenly distributed gripping force, reducing the risk of : Breakage, scratches, products loss.
How does the LayerGripper system ensure stable suction and efficient handling ?
A side channel blower generates the continuous vacuum airflow.
The vacuum pump provides a stable vacuum airflow to efficiently drive the LayerGripper system, enabling consistent suction performance across the entire gripping surface. This ensures reliable and secure handling of both full and partial product layers, even in the presence of minor leaks, uneven surfaces, or slight misalignment, making the system highly adaptable to real-world industrial conditions.
Can the system handle partial layers or irregular patterns ? Yes !
The system is designed to manage :
- Partial layers
- Mixed formats
- Irregular spacing
- Misaligned products
Can our LayerGripper pallets and slip sheets ? Yes !
Optional features allow the system to :
- Handle slip sheets
- Handle pallets
What are the benefits of using a LayerGripper ?
- Faster cycle times
- Reduced product damage
