WITTE - METAPOR© - Applications
Vacuum clamping technology
The main feature of METAPOR© vacuum clamping systems is suction over the
complete surface area without suction bores.
Foils are held absolutely flat. The pressure drop, which takes place within the
structure means that it is not necessary to cover areas not in use. METAPOR© is
ideally suited for holding foils and electronic parts as well as for mould-forms and
soft workpieces.
Air film glide technology
The pressure distribution in the METAPOR© structure allows even surface airflow
capacity, even if only part of the surface is covered. Air consumption and noise
emission are considerably reduced. Trouble-free machining offers cost reduction
on air flow components, a new perspective for rotation bearings, conveyance and
extrusion beds.
Through-flow technology
The microporous METAPOR© structure allows an even agitation of granulates and
powders without bubbles ocurring. Low air consumption reduces friction and mechanical
load. METAPOR© ideal for mixing processes, coating, conveyance troughs
and dismantling of silo bridges
Mould technology
Deep drawn moulds made of METAPOR© do not require any bores. Bore imprints
on the workpiece are avoided. Suction over the complete area allows structures to
be complex without air pockets and distortions. The complete flow-through of air
prevents high-temperature areas developing. Rational machining procedure and
immediate usability promise a valuable technological advantage
