Vacuum Chuck
Vacuum Chuck
The vacuum chuck holds flat parts for processing. Several types and sizes are
available, but they all work by applying a vacuum underneath the part so that room
air pressure holds it in place and keeps it flat. Other chuck designs are available. Refer
to "Vacuum Chuck Assembly Options" on page 9-5 for some other examples.
