Pump Sizing for CNC Router Tables
Generally speaking, when you want to match the right pump to the table size, you need 5.5 CFM per square foot of surface area for spoil board or nested base tables. Due to the small suction cups utilized by Pod and Rail tables, they require far less flow and typically use one size pump.
Table Size | Square Feet | CFM | Becker Pump | Becker Duplex System | CFM |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
4’ x 8’ | 32 | 176 | VTLF 2.250 | WW 250 D | 352 |
5’ x 10’ | 50 | 275 | VTLF 2.400 | WW 250 D | 352 |
5’ x 12’ | 60 | 330 | VTLF 2.500 | WW 250 D | 352 |
5’ x 20’ | 100 | 550 | — | WW 500 D | 706 |
Pod and Rail | 12 | 66 | KVT 3.100 | — | — |
