Vacuforce Compressed Air Vacuum Technology
Vacuforce ZU05L Compact Inline Venturi Vacuum Generator
The Vacuforce ZU05L is a compact inline vacuum ejector with a 0.5mm nozzle and 6mm connection. Powered entirely by compressed air, it delivers rapid point-of-use vacuum with no moving parts for small automation systems and lightweight handling applications.
Product Overview
The ZU05L creates vacuum directly in the pneumatic line, allowing the ejector to be installed close to the vacuum cup or fixture. This reduces internal vacuum volume and can improve response time in fast-cycling equipment.
Its 0.5mm nozzle is suited to small-scale gripping and evacuation duties where compact size, low weight and simple installation are priorities.

Why Choose This Vacuum Generator?
Choose this inline model when installation space is limited and the vacuum source needs to be mounted directly in the pneumatic circuit. Its lightweight design is particularly useful on moving tooling and small robot end effectors.
Typical Applications
- Small robotic end-of-arm tooling
- Electronics and component handling
- Compact packaging machines
- Lightweight pick-and-place systems
- Automated assembly fixtures
- Point-of-use vacuum cup installations
Application support: Confirm available compressed air pressure, required evacuation time, expected leakage and vacuum cup or system volume before final selection.
Frequently Asked Questions
What nozzle size does this model use?+
The ZU05L uses a 0.5mm nozzle for compact point-of-use vacuum generation.
What connection size does it use?+
This model is configured with a 6mm connection.
Where should an inline ejector be installed?+
Install it as close as practical to the vacuum cup or fixture to minimize vacuum line volume and improve evacuation response.
Is it suitable for robotic EOAT?+
Yes. Its compact, lightweight construction makes it suitable for small robotic grippers and other moving end-of-arm tooling.
Does it contain moving parts?+
No. Vacuum is generated by the Venturi effect, so the ejector has no moving vacuum-generating components.
