Special Traverses
Dünnplattentraverse Barbaric
Traverse for thin panels – PVC, aluminium, melamine
BARBARIC Dünnplattentraverse is a special traverses for safe vacuum handling of special workpieces such as thin panels, doors with glass cutouts or sheet metal and Plexiglas parts. Asamer delivers, installs and services BARBARIC systems in CZ, SK and HU.
The thin-panel traverse with 4 suction cups (Ø 270 mm) on an adjustable cross-beam is specifically designed for dense thin panels such as PVC, aluminium, metal and melamine. Not suitable for MDF or air-permeable chipboard.

Learn moreIn Detail
The Barbaric thin panel traverse is a vacuum traverse specifically for thin panels between two and fifteen millimetres — such as thin chipboard, MDF backs, HPL laminates or gypsum boards. Thin panels tend to sag under central vacuum grip; in extreme cases, the material breaks under its own weight. The thin panel traverse distributes suction cups across a longer support base and additionally supports the panel mechanically. This enables reliable lifting of even 2–3 mm thin material — a scenario in which standard vacuum lifters regularly fail. Typical applications are back panel assembly in furniture making, the coating industry and drywall construction. Asamer configures the thin panel traverse to suit your typical formats and thicknesses — for joinery and furniture plants in Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary including integration with existing crane systems and safety acceptance.
Applications
For back panel and shelf handling
Furniture manufacturers process thousands of thin back panels or shelves per week. Without a traverse, these parts can only sensibly be handled manually — with the risk of panels bending or tearing. The thin panel traverse automates transport and reduces waste.
For coaters and drywall construction
At laminating lines or when cutting drywall boards, large, flexible formats are typical. The thin panel traverse secures even area support without local suction forces creating pressure marks — crucial on sensitive top layers.
Buying Guide
Choose the thin panel traverse if you regularly handle panels below 15 mm and want to avoid sagging or breakage. For standard panel thicknesses from 16 mm upwards, the UWL-3 is sufficient. Traverse length is dimensioned to your maximum formats — a too-short traverse provides no benefit, an unnecessarily long one wastes investment.
