Q1: How do PU pads differ from standard pads?
A: The self-leveling (swivel) head compensates for surface angles, keeping the seal and placement stable—standard flat pads are more sensitive to angle errors.
Q2: What surfaces/materials are suitable?
A: Smooth metals, plastics, and glass where the surface is inclined, curved, or uneven.
Q3: What sizes are available?
A: ø10–200 mm (14 sizes). Size by contact area, payload, and line speed.
Q4: Are they suitable for high-speed automation?
A: Yes. Use appropriate vacuum generators/orifices and refine accel/decel profiles to limit lateral forces.
Q5: How about oily steel surfaces?
A: PU can work, but for heavier oil films or high slip risk, consider PK2B (textured + bellows) oil-film-ready pads.
