Our CNC vacuum tables are state of the art, providing precise design control whether machining plexiglass, PVC, steel or any other product form. Our tables are the best in the world and will keep your items secure during even the most extreme operations.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
We offer the best selection of CNC vacuum tables in different sizes and shapes to suit your needs, and we will help find you the most effective and affordable solution. Our standard sizes range from 5” x 6” to 72” x 144” and ranging in thickness from 1 3/16” to 1.5”.
We also have extensive experience in providing the right type of CNC vacuum pump for your table.
Some applications and manufacturing processes where a vacuum table enhances CNC operations include:
- CNC Machining
- CNC Routing
- CNC Milling
- Precision Cutting Systems
- Laser Cutting
- Plotter / Cutter Processes
- Ultrasonic Cutting Machines
- Surface Grinding
Equipment Features
Systematic Automation provides an array of customizable options to complement your CNC vacuum table, such as:
- A coolant separator to eliminate the risk of CNC coolant getting inside your pump. The coolant will collect in the reservoir between the table and pump, with an alarm once it reaches capacity
- Versatility with sliding vacuum tables available on up to two axis of travel with swiveling casters
- Valves to activate or deactivate custom vacuum zones
- Hole patterns custom designed to your specific application
- Table surfaces available in Formica which alleviates conductivity issues and provides a scratch free surface
- Anodizing of your vacuum table surface to add corrosion resistance and insulation
- Automatic pin registration to quickly register your product specs with pneumatically actuated foot pedal or push button
- Fast and reliable set up with custom registration of pins
RESURFACING & RETROFITS FOR EXISTING CNC TABLES
Already have a vacuum table that's lost its flatness — or a CNC router or mill that needs vacuum hold-down added? We resurface existing vacuum tables back to spec, and we design drop-in vacuum tables sized to retrofit your current machine's bed. Send us your bed dimensions and application, and our engineers will spec the table, hole pattern, port location, and pump as one complete system.

CNC VACUUM TABLE FAQ
Do I need a vacuum table on my CNC router?
A vacuum table holds the whole sheet flat with no clamps or tape. Your tool can cut the full part without stopping to move clamps. It works for plexiglass, PVC, steel and other sheet stock.
Can you add a vacuum table to my CNC mill or router?
Yes. We build drop-in vacuum tables sized to your machine's bed. We also resurface old tables that have lost their flatness.
What vacuum pump does a CNC vacuum table need?
It depends on your parts. A rotary vane pump gives strong holding power and handles some leakage. A regenerative pump moves more air and suits large areas that need less vacuum. We size the pump and ship it with the table. See our vacuum pumps and valves.
How flat are your CNC vacuum tables?
Every table is inspected to ±.001″ per linear foot before it ships.
What sizes do you make?
Standard sizes run from 5″ x 6″ to 72″ x 144″. We also build custom sizes and shapes to fit your machine's exact bed.
Can I hold small parts or just part of a sheet?
Yes. Valves turn custom vacuum zones on and off, so you only hold where the part sits. Hole patterns are designed for your parts.
How long does a custom table take?
Estimated delivery is 2 weeks.

CNC Vacuum Pumps
Two types of vacuum pumps are available depending on your operation:
Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump
Used in conjunction with your CNC vacuum table, high flow vacuum pumps allow some leakage without losing significant vacuum force. Rotary vane pumps have strong holding power but pull less vacuum throughout the area than regenerative-type vacuum pumps.
Regenerative Vacuum Pump
Regenerative vacuum pumps are typically integrated for high-flow processes when a high vacuum level is not needed. This is ideal when you want more vacuum on a larger area.
