How Do Vacuum Pads Work? Vacuum pads, also known as industrial suction cups, grip a workpiece by forming a seal at the contact surface while a vacuum generator removes air from the enclosed space. The difference between atmospheric pressure and the lower pressure inside the pad produces a holding force perpendicular to the surface. The theoretical holding force depends on […]
How Does a Vacuum Generator Work? A vacuum generator removes air from a connected space, lowering its pressure below the surrounding atmospheric pressure. In a vacuum handling system, this space includes the suction cups and connecting lines. When a cup forms a seal against the workpiece, the pressure difference across the contact area produces holding force. The generator must remove […]
