About VMECA
VMECA Co., Ltd., headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, develops and manufactures compressed-air-driven vacuum components for automation applications. The product range includes vacuum generators (Eco Turtle Pump, Mega Eco Turtle Pump), vacuum suction cups (Magic Cups in C-type and SB-type), multifunctional vacuum grippers (MV20 Series Magic Gripper, V-Grip System) as well as vacuum conveying systems for powder and bulk material conveying. The products are used, among other things, in bottle filling and packaging lines, in pick-and-place handling, for de-stacking stacked sheets and for carton transfer; for food packaging VMECA offers FDA-approved air-operated vacuum products, and vacuum conveyors are available for ATEX areas. In addition to its home market of Korea, the company supplies Europe, Asia, Canada, Latin America and North America. In February 2025, a partnership with the German ZIMMER Group was announced.
