Рекомендации по выбору

1. Vacuum Matching: 90% vacuum is suitable for picking workpieces with good air tightness such as metal and hard plastic. For highly permeable workpieces, select larger nozzle size or higher flow models.
2. Nozzle Diameter Selection:

1.0мм (10): Низкий расход & low air consumption, for small and light workpieces

1.2мм (12): Средний поток, universal versatility

1.4мм (14): Высокий поток, for medium-large and heavy workpieces

3. Solenoid Valve Type:

Тип С (Северная Каролина): Vacuum maintained when power off, for high safety requirement scenarios

Type V (НЕТ): Vacuum released when power off, for fast workpiece release

4. Тип монтажа:

Standalone mounting: LEMAX90X__S/V (dual M8 interface)

Manifold mounting: LEMAX90X__SC14 (single M8 interface), combinable with multiple modules

5. Control Interface: Dual M8 allows independent vacuum and blow-off control; single M8 is controlled via internal logic.

Рекомендуемые альтернативные решения

1. Обновление решения: LEMAX+ series (например. LEMAX+90X14S) with higher flow and advanced ASC technology, suitable for high-speed automated production lines.
2. Economy Solution: LEM series (например. LEM90X14S) with ASR (Air Saving Regulator), ~40% energy saving and cost-effective.
3. IO-Link Solution: LEMAXIO series (например. LEMAXIO90X14S) supporting IO-Link communication for remote monitoring and parameter configuration, идеально подходит для промышленности 4.0 applications.
4. High-Flow Solution: For higher vacuum flow, choose 2.0mm or 2.5mm nozzle models such as LEMAX90X20S.
