Adjustable Air Amplifier can pick and place porous parts.
Press Release Summary:
CDF Series combination vacuum pump and cup generates high vacuum flow suitable for picking up light, porous objects such as open celled foam, fabric, fibrous paper products, and stenciled or screen printed circuit boards. It operates on Coanda Effect, where small volume of compressed air is converted into large flow of ambient air. Amplifiers are available in 7 standard models with internal bores from 1/8 to 2 in., and vacuum flows from 6 to 350 scfm.

Pick & Place Light, Porous Objects with Adjustable Air Amplifier
Vaccon Company, Inc. of Medfield, Massachusetts introduces the CDF Series adjustable air amplifier, a vacuum pump and cup in one that generates high vacuum flow ideal for picking up light, porous objects such as open celled foam, fabric, fibrous paper products, stenciled or screen printed circuit boards and more.
CDF air amplifiers operate on the "Coanda Effect" where a small volume of compressed air (1 to 9 scfm) is converted into a large flow of ambient air (40:1 output to input), enabling it to overcome leakage inherent in picking up light, porous objects. Using the vacuum inlet in place of a vacuum cup, the CDF air amplifier is a low cost, high performance pump that operates without vacuum cups or air regulators. Vacuum is instantaneous, and air velocity and flow of all CDF models are field adjustable ensuring optimum performance for each application and low operating expenses.
Made of high quality aluminum, CDF air amplifiers are available in 7 standard models with internal bores from 1/8" to 2", and offer vacuum flows from 6 to 350 scfm. Please consult factory for custom sizes, accessories, and materials.
