ROBO Pump®

Compact and Easy
Maximize your workspace with this ultra-compact vacuum pump. Despite its small size, it has an integrated solenoid valve and pressure sensor, perfect for efficiently handling lightweight objects.

No Piping Necessary
Forget complex setups with messy air lines or bulky compressors. Simply connect ROBO pump to the cable and power and you're ready to go. Add the optional wireless feature for remote communication with a teaching tool.

Monitor and Control with Ease
The built-in display shows real-time pressure and any alarm conditions. Intuitive four-way switches with a center push button allow for quick adjustments to threshold values and other parameters.
