Foam technology

Kenos foam technology brings efficient and precise gripping to a wide range of applications. From small components to large-area grippers, our adaptable foam solutions handle diverse surfaces and product types with ease - supporting reliable, high-performance vacuum automation.

Why sealing with a foam gripper?

Foam sealing technology enables stable and precise gripping, even on rough or irregular surfaces. The adaptable foam carpet conforms to the product surface to create a secure seal - without requiring full coverage.

Suitable for both small and large areas, foam grippers can handle everything from individual items to full pallets, supporting productivity and process reliability.

Foam technology adapted to all systems

Small-area solutions

Foam vacuum cups, Kenos Mini Grippers (KMG), and Kenos Flexi Grippers (KFG) benefit from the versatility of foam technology. Easily integrated into centralized or decentralized vacuum systems, they can grip multiple items simultaneously—even with partial coverage—ensuring reliable sealing across varying surfaces.

Large-area solutions

Large-area foam vacuum grippers provide a generous sealing surface for handling loads ranging from single cartons to full layers of jars. They tolerate imprecise product placement and adapt to different geometries, making them ideal for demanding palletizing applications.

 

Designed for easy maintenance

Foam technology is designed with sustainability and serviceability in mind. The foam carpet can be removed and replaced quickly, reducing downtime and extending system lifetime.

Choose between a secure adhesive solution—developed for safe use and easy removal—or the patented EasyFoam system, where a magnetic attachment allows foam replacement in seconds.
