How to choose this product

Vacuum chucks are used to hold non-magnetic workpieces for light machining and grinding. They are used for materials such as wood, glass, plastic and cast metals.

Applications

These devices hold workpieces for all types of machining operations, including grinding, milling and drilling. They are commonly used in woodworking and plastics processing.

Technologies

A vacuum chuck consists of a flat base plate with an array of holes and grooves for gaskets.
A vacuum pump attached to the plate creates negative pressure across the plate's surface via the holes to hold the workpiece firmly in place.

How to choose

Choice will depend on the dimensions of the workpieces. Most manufacturers offer different sizes; some are modular. Vacuum pump size and power rating also should be considered.

Advantages

- Non-magnetic work-holding

Disadvantages

- Limited clamping force
