摘要: The present invention provides a method for the quiet, contactless handling of objects using pickup devices Bernoulli type. is particularly suitable items much larger than an individual pickup, example lithographic printing plates. According to invention, flow fluid established between face and surface object be supported. made over laminar at velocity sufficient produce pressure differential flowing surrounding medium. lift maximized by making as smooth protrusionufree possible, ensuring that location extent substantially coincides with maximal lateral limits low-pressure zone opposing surface. As flows beyond periphery surface, it vibrationuattenuating reducing unwanted vibrations in object.
