Schmalz vacuum pumps: engineered for maximum productivity

Aa leader in industrial vacuum technology, Schmalz vacuum pumps deliver a high vacuum with high evacuation volume. These vacuum pumps are typically used in applications such as:

  • A central vacuum generation in gantry handling systems
  • In manual vacuum handling systems
  • In packaging machines

Schmalz vacuum pumps are engineered with extreme precision and maximum quality. The vacuum pumps use an eccentrically mounted impeller with lamellas, which maintain a seal against the walls of the pump housing through centrifugal force. As the impeller rotates, different sized chambers are created.

As the chamber becomes larger, the air it contains expands and the pressure drops, and a partial vacuum is created.

Use the benchmark in vacuum pump technology in your operation. Contact Tectra Automation today!

Because vacuum systems are modular, they can be assembled in a system that is tailored to the handling requirements of your workpieces. View our range of vacuum components here.

These vacuum pumps are ideal for handling applications in the glass, metal, wood, logistics & packaging, plastic, automotive, composite, solar, chemicals and pharmaceuticals industries.

Which vacuum pump is right for my application?

Dry running vacuum pumps are available in single- or 3-phase AC or DC power. They are ideal for applications requiring vibration-free operation with continuous output and minimal pulsation. These oil-free vacuum pumps are suitable for lifting, clamping and handling workpieces in a range of manual and automatic handling applications.

Oil-lubricated vacuum pumps provide very quiet operation, minimal maintenance and very high vacuum values (up to -98 bar) for efficient handling of very heavy loads.

These vacuum pumps are oil-free that require virtually no maintenance. It is ideal for medium to heavy loads, with internal water cooling allowing continuous operation.

This vacuum pump is ideal in environments where the surrounding ambient temperature needs to be regulated and considered, such as in the food and beverage industry. A water inlet regulation system is standard on this vacuum pump.

Vacuum pump distribution: We’re on your doorstep!

Tectra Automation is a member of the Bosch Rexroth South Africa Group of Companies. The Group has 35 branches covering sub-Saharan Africa, each strategically located near the region’s important industrial centres.
