CONVUM PF Flat Vacuum Pads

• Standard flat pad: designed for smooth, flat, and relatively rigid workpiece surfaces.
• Wide size range: covers miniature to large sizes, including selected rectangular sizes.
• Multiple fitting options: fixed fittings, spring fittings, and compact fitting types are available.
• Material options available: rubber material options are available by environment/requirements, including conductive types.
• Suitable for general automation pick-and-place: commonly used for handling and positioning flat workpieces (performance depends on actual surface conditions).

Q1: What workpieces are PF flat pads best for?
A: Smooth, flat, and relatively rigid workpiece surfaces.

Q2: What is the key advantage of the PF Series?
A: Standard flat design with a wide size range and multiple fitting styles.

Q3: What sizes are available?
A: The catalog covers Φ1 to Φ200 and includes select rectangular sizes such as 2×4, 2.2×4.2, and 3.5×7.

Q4: What fitting styles are available and how do I choose?
A: Fixed, spring, and compact types are available; choose based on stroke needs, mounting space, and height variation.

Q5: When is PF not recommended?
A: For rough, porous, or easily deformable surfaces, consider bellows or sponge-type pads instead.

Q6: How do I choose pad material?
A: Select based on environment and requirements; conductive materials can be used for ESD-sensitive handling.

Q7: Can PF be used for high-speed automation?
A: Yes, but confirm vacuum build-up time and holding force with actual cycle conditions before final selection.

Q8: When should I use conductive materials?
A: When ESD control is required, evaluate conductive options and ensure proper grounding.
