Vacuum Components

Ball joints KGL

Our highlights » Your advantages

• Fully flexible mounting of suction pads and suction plates
  
• Very good adaptation to workpieces with sloping surfaces
  
• Sealed ball-and-socket joint with vacuum-tight seal
  
• Vacuum-tight construction
  
• Low center of flexure
  
• Minimum wear on the suction pad when it is placed on a sloping surface
  

Applications

• Handling of workpieces with sloping surfaces with the aid of large-size suction pads or suction plates
  
• Handling of large sheets of materials (such as wood or sheet metal) which may sag when lifted (flexible mounting with KGL prevents premature pulling-off of the sheet as the result of onesided loading)
  
• Can be used together with spring plungers to compensate for differing workpiece heights and uneven surfaces
  

Construction

• Ball and socket made of galvanized steel (KGL G1/8-IG, G1/8-AG stainless-steel)
  
• Ball and socket with O-ring seal to prevent vacuum leaks
