Intact layers
Uniform pick-up preserves the pattern and reduces movement during transfer.
Automatic vacuum handling
Vacuum layer handling system for accurate loading and unloading
Handles complete layers without disturbing the product pattern and automates movement between the line, forming table and storage platforms.

Vacuum precision
Safe handling for large surfaces and delicate products
The vacuum layer head is a system capable of loading and unloading tile layers with great precision. The machine consists of a roller table, where the product layer is formed, and a suction unit with two electric fans that picks up the layers and places them on the side storage platforms.
Its operation is reversible, so it can also pick up layers from the platforms, place them back onto the table and feed them to the line. Its most common use is at the kiln exit, loading and unloading platforms, especially in ceramic plants working directly from kiln to sorting.
The system can also be adapted to other applications such as palletizing wooden boards, shower trays, large-format tiles, marble slabs and other products with a large surface-to-thickness ratio.
How the system works
- 1
Layer formation
Products reach the roller table, where the row former creates the required layer.
- 2
Vacuum pick-up
The vacuum unit picks up the complete layer evenly using electric fans or suction cups.
- 3
Accurate transfer
The system moves the layer while preserving the position and spacing of each piece.
- 4
Loading or unloading
The layer is placed on a platform or returned to the line through reversible operation.

Frequently asked questions about vacuum layer handling
Is the system only for ceramics?
No. It can be adapted to wood, marble, shower trays and other products with a high surface-to-thickness ratio.
Can it both load and unload?
Yes. Reversible operation transfers layers from the line to platforms and returns them to production.
Is it custom-built?
Yes. The design is tailored to the format, weight, throughput, vacuum technology and layout of each plant.
