Upgraded Vacuum Suction
A common concern with standard CNC routers is the loss of suction at the edges of the vacuum bed. Why? Most CNC routers have a standard bed layout with uniform shallow channels. These superficial channels restrict the airflow as it moves away from each vacuum hole, giving a significant loss of suction, further away from each vacuum hole.
The newly designed vacuum beds on all of the Olympus and Pegasus CNC routers come with a tapered vacuum matrix bed with much deeper grooves radiating away from each vacuum hole. This tapered grid bed allows maximum airflow throughout without restriction, even to the extremities of each bed zone.
Upgraded Vacuum Zoning
We have also redesigned the vacuum bed zones to incorporate maximum suction when using different size materials. The CNC routers with at least a bed size of 10′ x 5′ offer optimal suction when using sheet sizes of 8’x4′ and 10’x5′. The grid above of a 10′ x 5′ CNC router shows how the vacuum zones will incorporate these UK standard sheet sizes, as well as the full bed size.
VCarve Pro Software
VCarve Pro is included with all of the Olympus and Pegasus CNC routers. It provides a powerful but intuitive software solution for creating and cutting parts on a CNC Router. VCarve Pro gives you the power to produce complex 2D patterns with profile, pocket, drill and inlay toolpaths, plus gives you the ability to create designs with v-carving textures as well as import and machine unlimited Vectric 3D clipart or single model files.

What are the benefits of owning a CNC router?
Bringing production in-house has many benefits. Firstly, you can control production timescales and manage quality control. As human error is inevitable, having a CNC router removes some of those risks as you can visualise the end product beforehand and allow the CNC router to do all of the work. Lead times can also be determined when production is self-controlled and not reliant on outside sources.
You can also enjoy the endless possibilities of new product development. For example, the vast and different range of available tooling and materials for a CNC router has grown over the years. It offers the user versatility to manufacture products they would not necessarily do so by hand.
A CNC router can carry out intricate work which wouldn’t necessarily be possible with a hand tool. Additionally, allowing the CNC router to do all of the work releases the user to engage in other projects.

Paul Rawson
I was recommended to Opus CNC by a very experienced engineer in the industry. We purchased an Olympus 1325 which is fantastic quality, highly productive and great value. The service from Opus was first class, they could not have been easier to work with. The installation was smooth and rapid with little disruption to our ongoing operation. I cannot recommend Opus highly enough.
Ben Smith
We purchased a Pegasus 2030 ATC and I can’t speak highly enough of the service Opus have provided us. As for the machine itself, it has honestly changed the way that we work and it has opened so many doors for us. The machine is well built and all aspects seem to work seamlessly. The vacuum bed is unbelievably strong and makes holding the material down a doddle even when profiling smaller items The machine feels powerful when it needs and also delicate when the job requires it. If you are in any doubt whether to purchase one of Opus’s machines I can honestly say DO IT! I can’t stress enough how much this has changed production for us and we could have not asked for a better company to purchase from.
Paul Welbourn
I purchased the Olympus 1313 after visiting their premises and seeing the machine in action.
Delivery and installation was quick and smooth. Barrie and Daniel installed the machine and provided full training on the software and maintenance of the machine. Both Barrie and Daniel were knowledgeable and professional.
Additionally, Amanda and Barrie have both been very helpful answering queries I had once I’d used the machine for a few days.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Opus.
