Does the machine have a dust collection system?
The machine does have a vacuum impeller built-in as well as an external vacuum port that fits 2-1/4″ OD hose. The built-in vacuum system maintains airflow through the machine and removes airborne dust that can build up on the sensors. It is not designed to remove all generated chips and dust. Most of the dust generated by the CarveWright remains confined in the machine and will not affect the machine performance. After every project simply vacuum or use compressed air to clear the dust. The machine is designed to allow dust and larger debris to fall through the bottom of the machine via a cutout. The most effective way to remove this dust without voiding the machine’s warranty is to setup a downdraft vacuum system. Customers have reported great success using this method. Please see our user forums for more information.
