Noga DG0040 Vacuum Base

The Noga DG0040 Vacuum Base is a vacuum base from the Noga holding system range. Noga holding systems are used to mount dial gauges, indicators and inspection equipment securely during machining, inspection and quality control operations. This vacuum base uses suction to grip non-magnetic surfaces including granite surface plates, glass and non-ferrous workbenches — no magnetic field required. Combined with Noga's articulated arm range, these bases provide stable, adjustable gauge positioning across a wide range of machining and metrology applications.

Where this tool is used

• CNC and manual machining centres where dial gauges and indicators are used for part setup, datum finding and run-out checking
• Quality control and inspection benches where indicators must be held rigidly over long inspection runs without drift or movement
• Grinding and surface finishing operations where a securely mounted indicator tracks workpiece position relative to the grinding wheel

Key specifications

Selecting the right option

The DG0036 (800N) and DG1003 (1000N) magnetic bases suit most machine tool applications where a strong, secure hold on ferrous surfaces is required. The NF0037 (320N) is a lighter-duty option for smaller machines or bench-top inspection fixtures. The DG0040 vacuum base is the right choice when the mounting surface is non-ferrous, granite or glass.
