The Schmalz block suction cup VCBL-B 120x50x29mm with touch valve is the block suction cup specially developed for Biesse CNC machines — fully compatible with all Biesse console systems and also suitable for mixed operation with original Biesse suction cups.

The integrated touch valve enables automatic vacuum activation when the workpiece is placed — no manual opening and closing, no unnecessary vacuum loss with unused suction cups. With a suction cup height of just 29 mm, this block suction cup is the ideal choice for flat workpieces and tight spaces on the console table.

Original Schmalz quality. Fully Biesse-compatible. With touch valve for maximum efficiency.

Technical data

Suitable for all Biesse CNC machines

The VCBL-B is fully compatible with the Biesse console system — as a replacement for original Biesse suction cups or for mixed operation:

The Schmalz VCBL-B can be mounted in 15° increments in the standard console mounts — more flexible than many original parts. Not sure whether this block suction cup suits your Biesse configuration? Our technicians will be happy to help.

What does the touch valve do?

• Automatic activation: The vacuum is only activated when the workpiece touches the suction cup — no idle loss at unused positions
• Less vacuum loss: Unused suction cups do not affect the overall vacuum — the holding force at occupied positions remains consistently high
• Faster setup: No manual covering of unused suction cups required — the machine is ready immediately
• More flexible occupancy: Different workpiece sizes on the console table without jeopardising the overall performance of the vacuum system

When is the 29 mm version the right choice?

• Thin and flat workpieces: The low suction cup height of 29 mm keeps the distance between the console table and the underside of the workpiece to a minimum — ideal for panels with little clearance to the machining surface
• Tight console spacing: For densely populated tables where taller block suction cups would collide
• Standard formats: As basic equipment for common panel thicknesses and standard machining operations
• Replacement for the original Biesse suction cup at the same overall height without changing the console setting
