Vacuum Blocks VCBL-N

Clamp workpieces in nesting and grid table applications with maximum flexibility.

With the VCBL-N vacuum block, you can clamp workpieces of all kinds, from rough or textured surfaces to solid wood. With the extensive portfolio of dimensions and clamping heights, you can solve any clamping task. The suction plate can be changed quickly and without tools and is also equipped with a membrane. This protects the workpiece from direct contact with the standard touch valve and at the same time from soiling. The optional lifting system facilitates the loading and unloading of large, bulky workpieces and at the same time protects the sealing edge of the suction plate. The additional hose connection, which is included in delivery, enables a direct increase in performance for particularly demanding applications. The nesting insert, which is also included in delivery, can be removed so that the vacuum block can also be used on the grid table. This makes the VCBL-N a 2-in-1 all-rounder. Tedious switching of the vacuum block between grid and nesting applications is now a thing of the past.

Product recommendations

Further information

Does the clamping height change if the VCBL-N is used on the grid table without the nesting insert?

Yes, removing the nesting insert reduces the clamping height by 7 mm.

What is the maximum number of vacuum blocks that can be linked together by a vacuum line?

To achieve a noticeable increase in performance through additional vacuum, we recommend linking no more than three vacuum blocks to one vacuum line.

What is the reason if the workpiece moves or releases during milling?

First check the suction plate and the sealing frame of the vacuum block. If these are in good condition, check the gauge and the filter of the main pump.

Can I also clamp rough or structured workpieces?

This is possible with the VCSP-O MOS suction plate from the accessories.

How do I choose the correct grid dimension for my CNC machining center?

The respective groove dimensions are specified in the technical data of the products.
The illustration shows how to correctly measure the grid dimension (1), the groove width (2) and the groove depth (3).

Does the additional vacuum connection have to be used?

The vacuum blocks are designed for use without an additional vacuum connection. However, the nesting process is dependent on a large number of parameters, meaning that a safe process cannot always be ensured without an additional vacuum connection. The additional vacuum connection is therefore provided as standard and should be used for critical applications.
