Securing your workpiece to the bed of your CNC router often creates a challenge. The vacuum hold-down kit is a terrific accessory which makes securing your part a snap. Use just one pod to secure a small part, or all five pods to hold something large.
These compact Vacuum Pods are made from clear acrylic, each with its own vacuum seal. Each pod is connected together to cover a large area. Place the pods on your CNC table and secure with screws and T-nuts (included). Pods can be mounted either on top of your MDF spoil board or directly to the aluminum table by selecting the appropriate length screws. Cut the 1/4” hose to the desired length and connect the pods and valve to the vacuum port on the venturi. Use the remaining hose and fitting to connect your compressor to the air port on the venturi.
You’ll be amazed at the holding power of this exciting NEW accessory!
