vacuum pump
A vacuum pump is a mechanical device that removes gas molecules from a sealed volume in order to create a vacuum. The main function of a vacuum pump is to reduce the pressure within a system, which enables a wide range of technological and industrial processes. These devices come in various types, such as positive displacement, momentum transfer, and entrapment pumps, each with unique technological features that suit different applications. Key technological features include variable suction and discharge pressures, dry or wet operation, and the ability to handle a variety of gases. Vacuum pumps are used across numerous fields, including manufacturing, medical, pharmaceutical, and aerospace industries, where they are integral for processes like material handling, vacuum drying, and precision coating.
