Vakuumtransport – Sichere Bogenführung für industrielle Druckmaschinen
Stable sheet guidance even at high speeds: Vacuum transport systems from DUO-Technik ensure precise material flow and maximum process reliability in printing and converting facilities.
Why Use Vacuum Transport in Printing Presses?
In modern printing and finishing systems, demands on production speed, registration accuracy, and process stability are constantly increasing. Lightweight, thin, or large-format sheets, in particular, are prone to fluttering, slipping, or unstable travel.
Vacuum transport systems stabilize the material flow through targeted vacuum control. The sheet is held securely on the transport element, ensuring smooth and reproducible running even at high machine speeds.

Technological Advantages of Vacuum Transport
Precise Sheet Stabilization
The controlled vacuum system securely holds the sheet in place on the transport element. This reduces fluttering and positional deviations and improves process stability, especially at high speeds.
Improved registration accuracy
Smooth material flow supports subsequent process steps such as printing, coating, or further processing and contributes to consistently high product quality.
Gentle material handling
Vacuum transport enables low-contact handling of sensitive substrates and reduces the risk of damage or marks.
High integration flexibility
The systems can be integrated into both new machines and retrofit projects and can be adapted to different layout requirements.
