MDF Spoilboards create a sacrificial layer directly on top of the AirWeights vacuum table. We use a high density MDF that allows vacuum to pull through at a consistent rate, turning the entire MDF sheet into a reliable vacuum hold-down surface. Larger projects can be placed directly on the MDF with no gaskets in place. 

Adding a spoilboard offers multiple advantages:

  1. Protect your AirWeights table from being cut into or damaged
  2. Cut all the way through your material, and into the spoil-board without worry
  3. Create customizable fixtures for any part

These are machined to size to fit AirWeights tables perfectly and feature a set of locating holes for repeatable alignment on your table. Available in 24x24 and 24x48.

Save Time & Money

The AirWeights system gains the user several efficiencies.

  • Saves time: You can secure multiple parts quickly
  • Cut down on material waste: No need to leave room on stock for screws or clamps.
  • Maximize table space: less clamps = more workspace
  • Repeatability: Refine your workflow and make your process more efficient
  • Reliability: Holding force is distributed evenly under your entire workpiece for a uniform and reliable hold


Using What's Already There

The Weight of Air

It might not seem like it, but air is heavy! The pressure of the atmosphere above us pushes down with a force of almost 15lbs per square inch.

All you have to do to unlock that weight, is create an area of low pressure below a mass, which AirWeights achieves in a compact, efficient, and affordable formfactor.

The 24x24 AirWeights table can unleash nearly 8,000lbs of holding power at the flip of a switch!
