Round vacuum suction plate for secure gripping of flat workpieces

Handling of sheet metal, plastic sheets or wood event in dirty environments

Our round suction plate is a vacuum gripper for flat, smooth workpieces such as sheet metal, plastic sheets and coated wood.
Its small internal volume keeps cycle times short, and it holds parts reliably under high acceleration, oil and dirt.

suction plate for wood handling in the industrial automation

Which workpieces can the suction plate handle?

  • Sheet metal, including thin-walled sheets
  • Plastic sheets
  • Coated wood

Why use a round suction plate?

  • Stable under high dynamics:
    Strong holding force and a firm seal keep the workpiece in place during fast acceleration and braking.
  • Short cycle times:
    The small internal volume evacuates quickly, so the part is gripped sooner and the next cycle starts sooner.
  • Reliable in oily conditions: Built for the oil film typical of sheet metal processing.
  • Gentle on thin-walled parts: Support ribs on the suction side carry the workpiece and prevent permanent deformation, even with thin sheet metal.
