EDCO USA was founded in 1994 in response to a growing need for high quality, cost-effective vacuum related automation devices manufactured in the United States. Since then EDCO has become a leader in industrial vacuum technology design expanding their product line of vacuum components to include a wide range of vacuum pumps, pads, generators, check valves, grippers, and suction cups. In addition to the many standard products, EDCO also makes customized or made-for-purpose products for individual applications. EDCO prides itself on offering compact and innovative solutions for the industrial vacuum-holding market. Whether standard or custom, all of EDCO's products are developed using only high quality, rugged materials suitable for industrial service.

Industrial Vacuum Pumps

EDCO Vacuum Pumps include anodized aluminum bodies, stainless steel valve plates, brass ejector nozzles and stainless steel fasteners at a price substantially less than our competitor's plastic component pumps. Our modular pump design allows field expansion/conversion of pump capacity and can be easily disassembled for cleaning or replacement of parts such as seals or ejector modules. We continually develop new products and customized designs that may not appear below, so give us a call if you don't find what you are looking for - we may already have a solution for you!

Miniature “Chip” Vacuum Pumps

EDCO Vacuum Chip Pumps were named after electronic circuit chips whose small size and versatility have made modern products more efficient, compact, and affordable. Our low-cost Chip pumps will do the same things for your vacuum systems. Chip pumps provide the performance you would expect from a multi-stage multi-ejector air powered vacuum pump. To increase pump capacity, we simply increase the number of ejector nozzle sets or add another pump module to the assembly stack.

Single Stage Vacuum Pumps

EDCO single-stage pumps provide the instantaneous response common to air operated devices in addition to being compact, light and cost-effective. Rugged all-metal construction will provide years of trouble-free service. Our no-clog flow-through design is perfectly suited for packaging and other applications involving paper fibers or other debris that can be ingested into the vacuum system.

Multi Stage Vacuum Pumps

EDCO’s compressed air-powered Classic Pumps feature complex high flow multi-stage, multi-ejector designs. They are available with five different series of ejector nozzles: M, ML, E, L and X-series with different performance characteristics that give system designers a wide selection range instead of the one-size-fits-all approach.

EDCO AX Pumps

EDCO's AX multi-stage vacuum pumps provide a wide array of styles and configurations to exactly meet system requirements. Compressed air-powered Classic Pumps feature complex high flow multi-stage, multi-ejector designs.

Large Vaccum Pumps

EDCO' offers dual, triple, and quad base large vacuum pumps.

Transfer Pumps

These pumps are used to move bulk dry goods or small parts.

 

Vacuum Cups - "Suction Cups"

Suction cup is the usual industrial term for a vacuum cup. Most cups are round because that is a strong shape that resists collapse under vacuum pressure and it efficiently distributes load forces through the cup walls to the fitting. A circular shape also provides the greatest area for the amount of space it occupies. Industrial cups usually employ a metal fitting for mounting the cup and for connecting a vacuum source to allow the inner volume to be evacuated. Suction cups are made of rubber and include a flared lip to form a flexible seal against a work piece to allow the cup to be evacuated with a vacuum pump. Several cups can be connected to a central pump, or a small vacuum pump can be used for each cup.

Vacuum Valves

Please Contact Us for the latest EDCO USA Literature

EDCO manufacturers a wide variety of vacuum valves to meet your applications needs:

  • Dual Flow Valves: Limit vacuum leakage in a system where some of the suction cups may not be sealing contact with the work piece.

  • Tri-Flow Valves: A cross between Flow Sensor Valves and Dual-Flow Fittings. They limit vacuum leakage in a system where some of the suction cups may not be in sealing contact with the work piece.

  • Flow Sensor Valves: Eliminate the problem of vacuum loss thru non-working standard cups or thru valved cups overhanging the work piece edge.

  • Release Check Valves: Used for high-flow vacuum release applications such as those involving vacuum reservoirs or larger mono-stage or multi-stage vacuum pumps.

  • Vacuum Check Valves: Used to hold downstream vacuum whenever the vacuum source is removed or lost.

  • Vacuum Check Valves with Release Check: Used with a single suction cup so a non-porous, high value, work piece won’t be immediately dropped if the system vacuum source is lost.

  • Vacuum Latch Release Valve: Used to latch and hold vacuum within the suction cup until a positive pressure signal operated a pilot valve, causing the vacuum to dissipate and release the part.

 

Accessories

The following accessories are available with EDCO vacuum pumps & cups.

  • Swivel Joints

  • Tee Adaptors: Mounts any suction cup having a female fitting and allows daisy chaining vacuum tubing from cup to cup to simplify plumbing.

  • Level Compensators: Used to compensate for height differences on a work piece surface.

  • Filters: Both T-Style and Inline Filters.

  • Sheet Separators: Used to warp the edges of sheet goods to promote separation from the next sheet in a stack.

  • Blow-off Module: Pneumatic Blow-off Module provides 25cc of stored compressed air to give a robust pulse to dissipate vacuum in a system whenever the vacuum pump air supply is vented.

  • Pipe Plugs w/ O-ring Seal
