[0029] When grabbing materials, the lifting cylinder 27 drives the three groups of suction cup assemblies to move up and down through the lifting connecting plate 31, so that the suction cups at the bottom contact the materials, and then the vacuum generator 26 is started to vacuum the suction cups so that they are adsorbed on the materials to achieve material grabbing.
[0030] When grabbing materials of different sizes, the first pen-shaped cylinder 34a and the second pen-shaped cylinder 34b respectively push the suction cup left connecting plate 35a and the suction cup right connecting plate 35b to move along the first optical axis 32a and the second optical axis 32b, thereby adjusting the spacing between each group of suction cup assemblies to adapt to the grabbing of different materials.

At this time, the cylinder extends to grab the material and then retracts. The cylinder retracts and places the material in the stacking flow channel, reciprocating. When the material is stacked to the set quantity, it flows to the packing station.
