Virtual Industries Introduces the SERIES 3 PORTA-WAND™ ELITE Kit with 300 mm Wafer Tip

Sep 26, 2018

Virtual Industries Inc., a leading supplier of manual vacuum handling solutions, now provides a product line of hand tools that replace tweezers or other gripping means for many applications. Ideal for handling wafers, disk media, flat panels, or any item that has a flat, hard surface, the SERIES 3 PORTA-WAND ELITE with 300 mm Wafer Tip VWT-5R-AR, handles up to 12" (300 mm) wafers, 110-220 VAC.

The SERIES 3 PORTA-WAND ELITE features a detachable battery pack, a safe vacuum level indicator and as well as 5" round machined Al Teflon coated, push button control. The detachable battery pack (VPWE-150) contains the rear exhaust filter for the entire tool to ensure better than Class l performance. The battery pack can be recharged while attached to the tool or when separated from the tool. The operation indicator turns on only when proper vacuum has been established, allowing operators to confirm they have a firm grip on the wafer. A PUSH-BUTTON provides easy on/off control with a lock to on position.

The SERIES 3 PORTA-WAND ELITE with 300 mm Wafer Tip VWT-5R-AR includes:

  • Detachable 9.6V NiMH rechargeable battery pack

  • In-stand charger (VPW-CHARGER-110-220)

  • One 300 mm wafer tip (VWT-5R-AR)

  • Battery indicator light

  • Internal replaceable air filter (VF-40M-5)
