Functionality of the suction plate

The principle of our devices is that a vacuum is generated between a suction plate, which is sealed with a seal, and the workpiece by a vacuum generator. The atmosphere then presses the workpiece against the support. The load-bearing capacity of the suction plate increases in proportion to the pressure difference between the atmospheric pressure and the vacuum in the suction plate.

A vacuum pump, vacuum blower or vacuum ejector can be used to generate the vacuum.
