Abstract/Summary
In Autometrix’s proprietary gantry style cutting table, a vacuum pulled through a channel array creates suction to hold soft materials firmly in place. To provide modularity for their customers a unique valve must be designed to segment the transverse channels in two or more sections. The solution must use minimal fasteners, maximize longevity, prove affordable, and be easily manufacturable.
