The Schmalz block suction cup VCBL-N 120x50x52mm 30/40 TV is the medium-height variant in the VCBL-N series — specially developed for nesting table and grid table machines with vacuum channel connection 30/40, with integrated push valve (TV).

With a suction cup height of 52 mm, this block suction cup covers the universal application range in nesting operations — greater clearance than the flat 32 mm version, more compact than the 132 mm high version. Ideal for medium panel thicknesses, workpieces with light profiling, and as flexible standard equipment on the grid table. The push valve activates the vacuum automatically when the workpiece is placed.

The universal medium height of the VCBL-N series — flexible, reliable, available for immediate delivery.

Technical data

Suitable for the following machines

The VCBL-N 52 mm is designed for nesting table and grid table machines with vacuum channel 30x30 mm or 40x40 mm:

Important: Please check before purchasing whether your machine uses the vacuum channel connection 30/40. Not sure? Our technicians will be happy to help — simply have the machine type and year of manufacture ready.

When is the 52 mm version the right choice?

• Medium panel thicknesses: When the flat 32 mm version is not sufficient, but the 132 mm high version would be too large — the 52 mm height covers the universal standard range
• Workpieces with light profiling: The greater overall height creates the necessary clearance to the machining surface without taking up unnecessarily much height
• Universal basic equipment: The 52 mm version is the most commonly used medium height in the VCBL-N series — ideal as flexible standard equipment on the grid table
• Direct replacement: A precise alternative for existing VCBL-N suction cups at 52 mm height — no modification of the table configuration required
• Combination with 32 mm and 132 mm: As the middle variant, the 52 mm suction cup complements the upper and lower end of the series for maximum flexibility on the grid table

What does the push valve do?

• Automatic activation: The vacuum is only activated when the workpiece touches the suction cup — no idling loss at unoccupied positions
• Less vacuum loss: Unoccupied 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 — the machine is ready immediately
• More flexible loading: Different workpiece sizes on the grid table without reducing overall vacuum performance
