Slot vacuum chucks
Application
Slot vacuum chucks and rubber adapter mat
Simply follow steps 1-5 and a
custom built fixture is ready in seconds.
When vacuum is switched
on mat and workpiece are sucked
down together. The excellent friction
values offer especially good
resistance to displacement forces
during machining.
Using the slot chuck with the rubber
adapter mat allows drilling of
holes and milling or cutting of
pockets and cutouts into the mat
to a depth of 1,5mm without losing
vacuum. As the mat suffers
hardly any wear and tear it can be
used often for workpieces with the
same contour.
Certain applications allow the tool
to work to depths of 1,5mm into
the mat.
Height tolerance of the mats
lies in a range of +/- 0,3mm
(DIN 7715, part Kl. P2)
Lay the rubber adapter mat onto the chuck covering
all the slots.
Position workpiece with the help of adjustable
end stops. Then draw round the contour using an
ordinary pen
