Downdraft vs Vacuum Clamp CNC Router

For those CNC Router operators that do production parts, we encourage these facilities to implement Dedicated Fixtures for improved router performance. The basic MDF spoilboard is leaky, drafty and a very ineffective way to get max vacuum to the PART, the most important thing in the whole process. A Dedicated Fixture like these are working towards creating an air-tight system runs FAST and EFFECIENT and very helpful to those shops looking to make more parts in less time.

This fixture is a thing of beauty. Poly furniture is tough to cut. This customer made a series of air-tight fixtures. Each fixture utilized our In-Board Gasket, being placed inside pre-routed channels. Locating dowels keeps raw material in place. These parts were cut in a single pass. It was very impressive to watch this operation purr. This dedicated fixture became a very efficient tool for what they are doing. Took a short time to make these fixtures, but now that they are done their time per part is now

10% of what it used to be.

Since finding our solutions a few years ago, this customer will no longer even attempt to cut a part on any of his seven routers without first utilizing one of our gasket solutions to vacuum clamp his part. A one-time recordable injury in the shop as a result of a part flying off the table started his journey looking for our type of solution, and now he is EXTREMLY happy he did as he cuts parts faster, cleaner and with less waste (and zero parts flying from the table).

If you own or operator a CNC router, we look forward to working with you one day and helping you get the most out of your CNC Router investment..
