Introducing Flexible Joint Technology for Improved Vacuum Handling Stability
In modern vacuum handling applications, achieving consistent contact on uneven or slightly misaligned surfaces remains a key challenge—especially when handling glass, sheet metal, or large panels.

To address this, euroTECH developed flexible joint solutions eT-Flex GG Series to provide controlled angular compensation between the suction cup and mounting structure.
Unlike conventional rigid connections, this type of joint incorporates a bonded elastomer element that allows for angular flexibility while maintaining high load stability and vacuum integrity.
Key benefits include:
G1/2 F × G1/2 M, M20 F × M20 M- Improved alignment on uneven or inclined surfaces
- Reduced stress concentration on suction cups
- Enhanced handling stability for large or heavy workpieces
- Lower risk of surface marking due to reduced lateral forces
This design is particularly suitable for industries such as glass processing, sheet metal handling, and automated material handling systems, where precision and surface protection are critical.
As handling requirements continue to evolve, integrating flexible joint elements into vacuum systems offers a practical way to enhance performance without increasing system complexity.
