Authorized National Elite Distributor
for the SMC Corporation of America
Vacuum generators (also known as ejectors) represent a critical component in modern material handling and automation systems. These units convert compressed air into consistent vacuum pressure, offering a reliable solution for pick-and-place, holding, and transfer applications.
Orange Coast Pneumatics stocks a comprehensive range of generators designed to provide efficient performance. From basic single-stage units to advanced multi-stage ejectors, we support diverse industrial processes.
Our SMC vacuum ejectors utilize advanced venturi designs that optimize compressed air usage while maintaining reliable vacuum levels.
Multi-stage designs provide improved efficiency compared to traditional single-stage units, helping reduce operating costs in high-duty-cycle applications. Integrated features like energy-saving circuits further enhance operational efficiency.
Compact designs allow installation directly at the point of use (end-of-arm tooling), reducing vacuum losses and improving system response time.
Manifold mounting options support centralized vacuum generation, while individual units offer maximum flexibility. Silencing options are available to maintain quieter operation without compromising performance.
Selection depends on cup size, desired cycle time, and material porosity. We can help calculate sizing based on your specific application.
Generators offer faster response and simpler installation but require compressed air. They excel in applications needing distributed vacuum or rapid cycling.
Check the silencer condition monthly and verify vacuum levels quarterly. Replace silencers annually or when backpressure increases noticeably.
