Hello all and thanks again for all the feedback,
Well, to clarify a little bit more this is what I have and I what I intend
to do:
I'm planning to use the router to cut just sheets of MDF and Melamine with
compression toolbits mostly, and some drilling too, all carbide off course.
I do have a 3
That's very good info. If you are doing mass production and starting
with blanks or pre-machined parts then pods are the way to go, no doubt.
However if you are machining parts out of sheet then you want vacuum on
the whole table. Table vacuum is generally more versatile but usually
needs some

I tested a 1.5kW vacuum cleaner motor for this application a while back
and wasn't impressed. They don't generate enough vacuum in my opinion.
You really need vane pumps or side channel blowers. Vane pumps generate
a very strong vacuum but use a lot of power. Side channel blowers
generate more

A friend was complaining about the need for 6kW vacuum system on a large
table and this got me thinking
Another way is to divide the table up

Yes, 6mm (1/4") MDF works well. It has a bit of restriction so you don't
lose all of your vacuum when you cut right through your parts.
What sort of vacuum pumps did you have in mind? You'll probably need a
minimum of 250 cubic metres per hour for decent hold down. In terms of
motor size,

I meant to say:
When there is a part over that hole and before the pump is on, the pellet
will be resting on the groove. As soon as the pump is on the vacuum will be
immediately sealed by the part, not allowing the suction to suck the pellet
