Vacuum Workholding Plates
Also known as vacuum chucks, these plates secure thin and flexible parts that can’t be held with vises or clamps for milling, drilling, routing, and finishing operations. Connect the system to your shop’s compressed air supply and it's ready to use. For applications requiring only part of the plate surface, use the gasket cord to seal off the area.
Risers, also known as vacuum pods, raise the workpiece off the vacuum table to give the cutting tool better access. Suction transfers from the table through the top of the riser, so to get a firm hold the workpiece must make contact with the full top length and width of the riser.
Retracting stop pins let you repeatably locate parts on your vacuum table. After positioning your workpiece against these pins, turn on the vacuum and the stop pins retract, dropping out of the way so the cutting tool has full access to the workpiece.
Side stops fit into the grooves of the vacuum plate to help you repeatably position material. They can be removed from the plate after the vacuum is turned on to give the cutting tool more access to the workpiece.
