VCBL-K2 140x115x100 Vacuum Suction Pods Replacement 10.01.12.00445 for Schmalz Console 4-011-11-0072 for Homag

Ordering this pod comes down to two numbers. The block measures 140x115x100 mm, weighs 1.18 kg, and carries both replacement numbers in one part: Schmalz 10.01.12.00445 and Homag 4-011-11-0072 (4011110072). It is a rubber suction pod for a Schmalz 2-circuit console or a Homag CNC machine, black, used on CNC woodworking tables for routing, drilling and edge processing. Changing a worn pod is a two-minute job: lift it out by hand, drop the new one in, check the panel for rock. Custom sizes and faces are quoted from a drawing. Price is quoted on request.

Three things go wrong at a CNC table, and none reads as a machine fault. A pod stops sealing, so the panel lifts a fraction under the cutter and the drilled pattern drifts. Blocks from an earlier job get mixed in, so the 140 mm faces stop sitting in one plane. And the number on the old pod has worn off. This pod answers all three.

It is a vacuum suction pod, also listed as a vacuum block: the part that pulls a panel down onto the CNC table and holds it through routing and drilling. Size 140x115x100 mm, colour black, net weight 1.18 kg. It replaces Schmalz part 10.01.12.00445 on a 2-circuit console and Homag part 4-011-11-0072 (4011110072) on Homag CNC machines.

Construction is rubber over a rigid support core. The rubber compresses against the panel and does the sealing; the core keeps the 140x115 mm seating face flat under clamping load. At 1.18 kg a pod lifts out of the table by hand, so a whole row changes inside one shift.

Application is the CNC woodworking machine: flat panels on a Schmalz 2-circuit console, or on a Homag router. Customization is supported, so a face or size not on the sheet is quoted from a drawing. Each pod travels in a standard export carton, and price is quoted on request.

Nine items sit on the sheet, and each one can be checked against the pod in your hand.

• 140x115x100 mm envelope — plan size and height, published as three figures so the old pod is measured with a rule first.
• Two part numbers, one pod — Schmalz 10.01.12.00445 and Homag 4-011-11-0072 (4011110072) both point here, so a console and a router restock on one line.
• Rubber over a rigid core — the rubber seals against the panel, the core holds the 140x115 mm face square under clamping load.
• 1.18 kg per pod — one fitter lifts it out of the table by hand, with no lifting gear and no second man.
• Black sealing face — a cut or a flat spot shows under the work light instead of being found on the scrap pile.
• Schmalz 2-circuit console fitment — listed for the console, where the pod sits on the circuit the console switches.
• Homag CNC fitment — listed as a replacement for Homag CNC machines; quote the part number rather than the machine year.
• Customization supported — a face or size no longer listed is quoted from a drawing, so a discontinued profile is not a dead end.
• Standard export carton — packed for the trip, so a spare sits on the shelf until the next changeover.

When a pod goes flat the choice is an outside repair, a block that nearly fits, or the number in the parts book.

• You order by number, not by photo. Both 10.01.12.00445 and 4-011-11-0072 are printed against the pod, so the block that arrives is the one measured.
• The size check takes ten seconds. 140x115x100 mm against the block in your hand — a mismatch shows before the order is placed.
• One spare covers two machine families. Listed for a Schmalz 2-circuit console and a Homag CNC machine, it halves the boxes on the shelf.
• A full row changes inside one shift. At 1.18 kg a worn set is swapped at a stoppage, not scheduled as downtime.
• The sealing face is the whole job. A panel that rocks, or a face gone shiny over 140x115 mm, means replace the pod, not the machine.
• Wear is judged with your eyes. Black rubber shows a cut, a polish or a flattened corner directly; no gauge is needed to confirm it.
• Non-standard faces stay orderable. Customization is supported, so a profile that has dropped off the catalogue is quoted from a drawing.
• Cost is per pod you replace. Price on request, quoted against quantity and the two part numbers, so spend sits on the pods that are worn.

Yes. One block is listed against both numbers: Schmalz 10.01.12.00445 and Homag 4-011-11-0072 (4011110072), so either number on your parts list brings up the same 140x115x100 mm pod.

140x115x100 mm. Measure the old block across the seating face and in height — those three figures decide whether the spare drops into the same position.

Yes, both are named as compatible machines. The pod is listed for the Schmalz 2-circuit console and for Homag CNC machines, which is why the two part numbers sit on the same block.

Rubber over a rigid support core, in black. The rubber is the part that seals against the panel; the core holds the 140x115 mm seating face flat under clamping load.

1.18 kg net per pod. One fitter lifts it out of the table by hand, so a worn row is changed at the machine without lifting equipment.

No. The pod is quoted per piece, so you order the positions that are actually worn. Count the positions on your table that take this block and quote that number.

Yes. Customization is supported: send the drawing or the dimensions of the block you need and the alternative is quoted against it.

Standard export carton per shipment, and price comes on request. Send the quantity plus the part numbers you are replacing and the quote is built on that list.
