Description

“…The number one choice of woodworkers everywhere.”

Since its introduction as the first practical vacuum veneer press, woodworkers have praised this original VacuPress model as a reliable performer. Today, the Professional Vacupress® Pump is still the number one choice of woodworkers everywhere.

An excellent entry-level VacuPress®, as well as a dependable choice for the woodworking professional, the Professional VacuPress® Pump handles the full range of veneering and laminating tasks with ease. Designed and thoroughly engineered to be a maintenance-free performer, the nucleus of the Professional VaucPress® Pump is a 1/3 HP 6 cfm dual chamber rocking piston pump chosen for its industry proven performance.

The Professional Vacupress® Pump vacuum is controlled by a state of the art, precision, “repeatably accurate”, digital vacuum switch for maintaining consistent vacuum levels. Easy to read, easy to adjust, our digital switch allows you to set both the vacuum pumps shut off and turn on points, independently from each other, providing infinite adjustability. This allows variable vacuum settings necessary for the various pressure needs of high elevation woodworking shops, curved woodwork work, and different types of veneer and laminating adhesive.

It also features a dual power switch for both vacuum pressing and vacuum clamping. In the press mode, the vacuum switch will automatically shut the pump off when the proper vacuum level is reached. In the clamp mode the pump operates continuously as a shortcycle hold down clamp for wooden parts.

The Professional Vacupress® Pump model can operate up to three bags with the addition of our manifold adapter.

VacuPress® Bags

Extruded Polyurethane is a state-of-the-art water clear vacuum bag material used extensively in high tech industries because it combines high puncture resistance with excellent elasticity, memory retention as well as moderate temperature resistance, up to 150 degrees repeatedly and 180 degrees occasionally. These qualities make extruded polyurethane the perfect material for daily use in the professional shop pressing flat, curved, and shaped work. If you just want the best, this is it.

VacuPress® Fliptop Table Press (Frame System)

When repetition and accessibility are priorities the VacuPress® FlipTop table press is the answer. Designed for quick and easy access, this frame system is ideal for the wood shop which presses flat and low profile curved woodwork more frequently – and can afford dedicated space for the frame system. The VacuPress® FlipTop table press brings a new level of speed and convenience to the vacuum veneering and laminating process.

VacuClamp Vacuum Pods

Arrange the VacuPress®  VacuClamp vacuum pods on the work surface, connect the vacuum source, and place your work piece on top. Instantly up to 1800 lbs per sq ft of pressure is applied. One, two, three or more VacuClamp vacuum pods can be connected together. Vertically, horizontally, on any angle, or any combination makes vacuum clamping simple and versatile to use. Because the VacuClamp  vacuum pods  are only on the underside, access for sanding or machining is unobstructed with no clamping marks.

Parts and Accessories

Our brass bag fitting is designed to mate with the nipple attached to all our vacuum bags. Smooth on the end that goes into the bag nipple and barbed on the other to receive 3/8″ ID hose.

Vacuum Pressing Made Simple (Book/DVD)

Using a vacuum press is the most efficient method of veneering flat and curved panels and making bent laminations, which add decorative options to fine woodwork that can’t otherwise be made using hardwood. Even the smallest of shops can produce high-design wood pieces with the vacuum press because its components can be disassembled and stored in a small space. In this step-by-step book and DVD, Darryl Keil explains and demonstrates how the vacuum press works; how to use it for veneering, wood bending and clamping; how to troubleshoot problems with the press; and how to maintain the equipment for effective, long-term use.

Total running time: 32 min.
