Vacuum Wands
Our line of vacuum wands and cups ensures the safety and quality of your delicate optical components. All wands and cups are usable with our Lens Handler™ system and ROTOwand™ systems, or they can be used with your vacuum source.
The non-damaging cups are made of non-damaging Delrin® and accommodate optics ranging from 1mm to 300mm. For applications where force will be applied to a part (e.g. grinding or beveling) we can adapt our vacuum cups to include a rubber o-ring for added security.
Wand Types:
A42000 Pincette Wand – The Pincette wand utilizes a by-pass hole, which when covered by the operator’s finger applies vacuum and holds the part. To release the part, the operator simply removes his or her finger from the by-pass hole. This wand is best used for applications where the part is under vacuum for a few seconds. (Note: this wand also requires the purchase of a small cup adapter: M42005.)
A42001 Push-Button Wand – The Push-Button wand turns applied vacuum on/off with a single button switch (best for applications that require vacuum for extended times beyond several seconds). (Note: this wand also requires the purchase of a small cup adapter: M42005.)
A42002 Straight Manual Rotating Wand – The Straight Manual Rotating wand features a manually rotating tip with constant vacuum. It is best used for applications where the part needs to be rotated during handling. (Note: this wand also requires the purchase of a small or large cup adapter: M42005 or A42006.)
A42003 90° Manual Rotating Wand – The 90° Manual Rotating wand features a manually rotating tip with constant vacuum. The right angle design allows access to areas with tight clearances. It is also ideal for inspecting small lenses under a microscope. (Note: this wand also requires the purchase of a small or large cup adapter: M42005 or A42006.)
