Suction pads are used wherever objects, parts, packing materials, etc. need to be lifted, transported, turned over or handled in other ways.

As the “connecting element” between the workpiece and the vacuum generator, their technical design and shape are extremely important.

The most important criteria which should be taken into account when selecting suction pads are listed below.

Explanation of the technical data

When planning a vacuum circuit and selecting the suitable suction pads, certain calculations must be carried out for the design of the individual components.

The most important facts, technical principles and definitions of terms are summarised on this page. This information should also help you to use the catalogue and the lists and tables in it.

The decision to use a particular suction pad is of extreme importance for the further construction of a vacuum circuit. However, it is equally important to match the design, dimensions and connection facilities of the vacuum generator, the hoses, the mounting elements and other components to the suction pad.
