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.
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.
Push-Button wand – The Push-Button wand applies vacuum to the part until the operator depress the plunger to release the vacuum. This wand is best used for applications where the part is under vacuum for up to a minute.
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.
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.
