In degassing applications, vacuum is used to reduce the gases present in a substance. These gases may cause bubbles which have an adverse effection the product. • Pick and Place Plastic sector, automotive, electronic, printing, packaging. • Vacuum infusion Infusion of composite materials is a production process that is becoming increasingly more popular to improve the aesthetic quality of the end product and reduce total manpower costs. The general principle of infusion is to “absorb” the resin into there and in the fabrics to be reinforced by using vacuum technology. The vacuum reduces the pressure at one end of the layers of fabric, allowing the atmosphere to push the resin through all the layers of fabric. The speed and distance at which a stack of fabric can be filled depends on the viscosity of the resin system, permeability of the layers of fabric and pressure gradient that acts on the infused resin. • Thermoforming Vacuum can be used in the process of thermoforming plastic materials.The preheated sheet of plastic material is placed on the die via suction (vacuum), so as to conform to the relief features of the die. • Medical Vacuum is used in a number of procedures in the medical sector, such as: dentistry and oral prosthetics, compression therapy and other hospital procedures.
