Hold Everything: Streamline CNC Setups with Vacuum Technology

Say goodbye to clamps and complicated setups.

In this hands-on session, we showcased how vacuum table technology is revolutionizing high-speed CNC milling.

This wasn’t just a conversation — it was a real-time demo showing how to simplify production, boost precision, and eliminate secondary operations altogether.

Whether you’re cutting thin sheets, large panels, or nested parts, this webinar changes how you think about CNC fixturing!

Did You Know?

Shops using vacuum workholding often reduce setup time by 30–70%, depending on part complexity and volume. That translates to faster changeovers, fewer errors, and lower costs — all driving greater profitability.

Key Take-Aways:

How two-operation vacuum workholding improves efficiency and part accuracy.
Top Differences Between DATRON’s Vacuum System and Traditional Venturi Systems
Techniques for machining two-sided parts with confidence.
Strategies for holding sheet materials and maximizing part nesting.
How to machine directly on a vacuum table — no second ops required.
Real-world use cases and live demos from the DATRON team.

Vacuum Tables

DATRON has developed a revolutionary vacuum table system to securely hold flat sheet material, dramatically decreasing setup and cycle times. Lay down your sheet material and cut your parts out within seconds of placing the stock. At the end of a production run, harvest the nested parts and lay down a fresh sheet for the next batch. The sacrificial, permeable card stock lets you cut through the material completely without damaging the vacuum table surface. Various designs, sizes, and configurations can easily mount onto the DATRON machines for a wide range of applications and materials.
