Efficient workpiece clamping for the most demanding requirements by vacuum clamping plates
Conventional clamping systems quickly reach their physical limits when working with brittle or thin-walled materials. Our vacuum clamping plates (vacuum chucks) ensure homogeneous clamping force distribution and provide the basis for reliable machining—whether in semiconductor manufacturing, medical technology, research, or industrial precision machining.
