Special machines for vacuum clamping technology
Typical applications: Precision vacuum clamping plates, clamping systems for thin-walled or distortion-prone parts, optical component clamping/wafer clamping, micromachining in a vacuum
Granite for maximum flexibility with customized clamping systems
Vacuum technology allows workpieces to be clamped securely and without distortion using negative pressure and enables 5-sided machining without reclamping. Workpieces, materials and process conditions are so individual that standard clamping systems are often inadequate. The solution is special machines.
Granite is the perfect material for this. These systems manufactured by PLANOLITH from natural hard stone for special machines in vacuum clamping technology show a selection of different options.

Why granite for your special machine in the Vacuum clamping technology?
For machines and especially special machines, granite has clear advantages over other materials such as steel, cast iron, plastic, light metal or combinations thereof.
These top 3 properties make granite hard stone the perfect material for your vacuum clamping technology requirements:
- Flat, non-porous surface:
Optimum sealing surfaces - No deformation:
Components remain stress-free - Thermal stability:
Important for temperature changes during processing/inspection
On request, we can produce drill holes, openings or cable ducts, mount linear rails or threaded inserts for air bearings or sensor elements. Everything you need for your tasks.
