Part Number: NU4
3.2 CFM Automatic Pneumatic Vacuum System – NU-Matic Pro Series
The NU4 is a compact, fully automatic pneumatic vacuum system designed for small to mid-size veneering, laminating, and vacuum pressing applications. Delivering 3.2 CFM of vacuum flow, this system is ideal for medium-sized vacuum bags, small shop production, and serious hobby use.
Powered entirely by compressed air, the NU4 requires no electricity, making it a simple, reliable, and low-maintenance solution. This unit demands 3.2 CFM at 85 PSI, allowing it to operate efficiently on most standard shop air compressor systems.
The NU-Matic system features an adjustable vacuum sensor that automatically regulates pressure within the vacuum bag or frame press. When vacuum levels drop, the system activates and restores pressure to the desired level, then shuts off once achieved. This automatic cycling eliminates the need for manual monitoring while maintaining consistent vacuum pressure throughout the press cycle.
The vacuum sensor can also be adjusted to reduce pressure when working with delicate materials, giving you greater control over your pressing process.
