I just got done building my 4x4 cnc, plenun and tubing done. Right now I have a lamb motor pulling around ~5”hg at ~90cfm. As it is now I have tubing to route another motor in parallel.
I had an idea to make a switcher of sorts to make it possible for the motors to go in series or parallel with a 3d printed dual gate.
So my question is:
I had another idea to put another thin nonporous substrate on top so when I go to do production parts I can make a jig with the outline of the part inset so I can easily cut without losing vacuum (hopefully)
I’m keeping what I said above into consideration, any help is appreciated I’ve been going nauseously back and forth in my head. Just wanting to put this to bed and make the correct decision.

So my question is:
- Should I stick to paralleling the motors at the ~5”hg @90cfm.
- Do the switcher to make it possible to do both above and “theoretically” make it ~10”hg @90cfm or less than (not entirely sure how series affects airflow I’m guessing less)
