Vacuum Pads What this product does Creates a reliable suction seal between the vacuum system and the workpiece to lift, hold, or move parts securely. Reduces surface marking and concentrates holding force to prevent slippage during handling or transport. Simple mounting and replacement to keep production downtime minimal. Key benefits — why you need these vacuum pads Secure handling: Provide consistent grip for stable pickandplace, lifting, or holding operations. Surface protection: Soft sealing edge conforms to irregular or fragile surfaces to minimize marring or damage. Versatile use: Useful in production lines, packaging, robotics, and maintenance where nondestructive handling is required. Cost control: Replaceable pads extend the life of vacuum tooling and reduce the need for downtimeconsuming repairs. Features and attributes Function: Forms a flexible vacuum seal that transmits suction from the vacuum source to the workpiece for effective lift and hold. Compatibility: Designed to work with standard vacuum fittings and lifter systems; check the product specification or model code to confirm exact fit for your equipment. Size and shape: Offered in multiple sizes and profiles to match different contact areas and load requirements; select the pad size that matches your tooling and part geometry. Material options: Available in common sealing elastomers to suit a range of surface finishes and temperatures; refer to product specifications for material details. Performance: Engineered for reliable suction retention, repeated cycles, and consistent sealing across intended service conditions. Practical applications (examples) Automated assembly: Securely pick and place delicate components on robotic arms without scratching or misalignment. Glass and sheet handling: Lift, position, and move flat glass, metal sheets, or composite panels with reduced risk of surface damage. Packaging and logistics: Handle cartons, bags, or irregular packages at speed on packaging lines and sorting systems. How to choose the right pad Match pad diameter and profile to the part contact area for even suction distribution. Verify material compatibility with part surface and operating temperature. Confirm the connection type and mounting dimensions against your vacuum fitting or tool holder. Maintenance and replacement Inspect sealing edges regularly for wear, cuts, or hardening; pads when sealing performance declines. Clean pads with mild detergent and avoid harsh chemicals that can degrade elastomers. Keep replacement pads on hand to minimize production interruptions. For exact sizes, materials, and compatible models, refer to the product specification sheet or contact your supplier with your system's fitting and application details.
