Suitable for flat objects such as cardboard, sheet metal, glass and porous materials. The cleats stop deformation by preventing suction of the object into the cup. The suction cup has good stability and very little movement. Also suitable when the lifting force is parallel to the surface as the cleats increase friction.
Strengths
•Suitable for flat objects
Good stability and little inherent movement
Recommended when the lifting force is parallel to the surface of the object
Cleats prevent thin, sensitive objects from being deformed and gives extra friction when the lifting force is parallel.
