High-payload vacuum gripper
11 March 2025
LEADING PROVIDER of hardware and software solutions for collaborative applications, OnRobot has announced the release of its new VGP30 vacuum gripper.

This powerful and robust 30kgpayload gripper is designed to excel at palletising boxes and handling irregular shapes and porous surfaces, even those constructed from cost-saving, thinner cardboard. The VGP30 is ready for immediate deployment out of the box and includes all the hardware and software needed for all leading robot brands.
"The VGP30 is engineered to maximise manufacturers' throughput and flexibility," says Enrico Krog Iversen, CEO of OnRobot. "With its high payload capacity, intelligent vacuum control, and seamless integration, the VGP30 enables users to automate demanding palletising tasks with ease, reduce energy costs, and achieve same-day installation."
Thomas Lorenscheit, CEO of OnRobot partner Lorenscheit Automatisierungstechnik, emphasises the vacuum gripping of the VGP30: “It’s incredibly strong, and as easy to use as any other OnRobot gripper,” he says, adding how finding one reliable gripper for palletising different types of cardboard boxes has always been a challenge. “The VGP30 stands out by delivering consistently high performance, whether we're handling premium or lower-grade cardboard."
