Explore the Schmalz Product Range

We develop precise vacuum clamping solutions for wood, glass, plastics and metal processing. From modular components to fully integrated systems – developed for reliable and deformation-free clamping. We combine precision technology with proven solutions for your specific machining requirements.

Vacuum Clamping Technology for Wood

Vacuum clamping technology for wood processing is essential for efficiently setting up console table, grid table, nesting table and flat table systems.

Vacuum Clamping Technology for Glass

Schmalz clamping solutions ensure flexible and efficient production processes in glass working. Suction cups with special friction pads are wear resistant and guarantee precise results, even in challenging operating conditions. Schmalz developed the Quick-Change System SQC especially for machine tables with screw-attachment suction cups. The quick-change suction cups offer minimal setup times and maximum flexibility.

Clamping Equipment for Metal and Plastic Processing

The modular vacuum clamping systems from Schmalz can be used universally on all CNC machining centers for metal and plastic processing. Together with specialized vacuum generators, the vacuum clamping equipment enables the gentle and low-distortion clamping of flat and thin workpieces.

Vacuum Clamping Technology for Freeform Surfaces

Workpieces with uneven, rounded or curved contours present a new challenge for clamping technology. With the Schmalz Basic Holding Fixture, complex components for CNC machining and measurement processes can be clamped without a problem. With the Suction Cup Balance SSCB, Schmalz has developed both a clamping system with precise positioning for 3D free-form surfaces and a gripping system equipped for automatic setup and simultaneous gripping.

Vacuum Generators for Clamping Systems

The vacuum generators for clamping systems from Schmalz have been specially developed for the requirements of clamping technology. Depending on the application, the powerful vacuum generator is supplemented by valve technology, system monitoring, filters and separators.
