L'un des inconvénients de l'impression sérigraphique est que le papier reste facilement collé à l'écran lorsqu'on relève celui-ci et, également que le fait de descendre le cadre, peut, par déplacement d’air, faire bouger la feuille; afin de lever cette difficulté, on a imaginé la base aspirante ou à vide. Il s’agit d’une table percée de petits trous, dispersés régulièrement tous les un ou deux centimètres. Ces trous communiquent sous la table, avec une chambre à vide [...] 1, record 3, French, - base%20aspirante

Today suction table treatments are generally considered alternatives to standard paper conservation techniques. These would include flattening, stain reduction, lining, etc. The suction table is composed of a series of stainless steel meshes, that allow for air and moisture be pulled through by a vacuum. The table is covered by a Plexiglas dome and treatments are often carried out through four access portals. A separate console houses the vacuum pump that provides the suction for the table and the controls, including the power switch motor speed control + vacuum gauge (measuring the vacuum in inches of water + kilopascals). 1, record 5, English, - suction%20table
