The VM100 was primarily designed for grinding non-ferrous material on a magnetic chuck. During the early stages of R & D it was discovered the VM100 could be much more. Clamp the VM100 in vise to reduce set-up time, use as a pallet changer or mount to a grid plate or T-slot table. The VM100 uses the same patented method as the VM300 to produce a vacuum strong enough for industrial applications but still operates on shop air! No need for vacuum pumps and coolant traps. We include everything necessary to get your VM100 running within minutes of opening the box. • Operates on 70-100 PSI shop air, eliminating vacuum pumps and coolant traps. • Will accept the standard VM300 vacuum pallet, increasing your vacuum platform to over 14" x 12" (360mm x 315mm). • Make your own vacuum fixtures - we can help with the design and produce the fixture for your custom application. • Remove 12mm pins when grinding/machining thin material, use set screws to locate and aid in holding force.
