Vacuum Systems (Dry Vane Type)
Simple, robust and efficient dry-running vacuum system ideally suited to VRTM processes.
This type of vacuum system is not adversely affected by air-admittance during the moulding process (‘rough’ vacuum), unlike oil-lubricated pumps which despite achieving higher levels of vacuum, can vent oil vapour if used in this type of application. Available as a stand-alone pump or in a range of configurations.
Features include:
