XT661, Cyclone Pad
SMC's non-contact, cyclone and Bernoulli type grippers, series XT661 moves work pieces without leaving flaws or adsorption marks. Because no-contact is made with work pieces, the XT661 is ideal for transferring FPD glass substrates, solar cells, wafers, etc.
- Assist in non-contact workpiece transfer
- Body diameter: (mm) 20, 40, 60, 80, 100
- High lifting force: Max. 9.9 lbf (ø100)
XT661-X260, Low Profile Cyclone Type
SMC's non-contact, cyclone and Bernoulli type grippers, series XT661 moves work pieces without leaving flaws or adsorption marks. Because no-contact is made with work pieces, the XT661 is ideal for transferring FPD glass substrates, solar cells, wafers, etc.

Series XT661
Working PrincipleAir from the supply port is ejected from a nozzle on the cylindrical side to generate a whirlwind flow inside the cylinder which creates a vacuum. Supply air is discharged to the atmosphere from between the suction surface and the work piece. As a result, an air layer is generated between the cyclone pad and the work piece, resulting in the work piece being lifted without contact. The Cyclone Pad works well with many difficult to hold materials:

Some Great Uses for Cyclone Pads
The XT661 can be a non-contact pad so it would not create lift marks in sensitive surface materials. This is very good for lifting materials like liquid crystal glass. | Because the XT661does not need a vacuum seal to lift, it is perfect for lifting workpieces with holes. | ||
The XT661 is perfect for lifting or holding very thin materials like copper film. | With the XT661 even porous materials like paper and wood can be held in place. |
