We have been going through different types of MDF for spoil board testing and everything we have used has been performing pretty poorly with the speeds we are running with the exception of Ulti-Board, which is something I heard about from one of our tool vendors. I had a couple sheets shipped up here from down south and the tests have shown a 41% decrease in our spinouts (vacuum loss). It is the only purpose-built spoil-board material I have ever heard of and I am very impressed on how it performs.
ULTI-Board has outperformed our current MDF by reducing spinouts by 41% in addition to having to be fly cut 37% less as well as being 33% thicker. This obviously keeps the machine running more so it has beat our current material in every way possible

Hello Clay –
Funny you write. I was thinking just yesterday that I need to reach out to you and tell you how pleased I am with your ULTI-Board. Man, that is wicked good spoil board material!! I think our part loss is about 1% of what it was prior to switching to your board. I could not be happier. Worth every penny of what the sheets cost me.

The performance of ULTI-Board has been excellent. With our cutting, ULTI-Board appears to be holding up considerably better, and the previous tolerance problems are no longer an issue.

ULTI-Board is working great so far. Drastically better than what I was using. Still need to up my vacuum pump game a little but I haven’t lost a part yet.

Math is math. If someone could buy a self-sharpening CNC bit that cost $200 but saved $400 in parts production…. they’d be foolish not to.
We transitioned to ULTI-Board about 2 years ago. We run a Shop Sabre IS 510 with a 17hp Becker pump. We are a normal cabinet shop with all the cabinet parts big and small.
For 2 years we tried all the normal spoil board sheet goods and had the usual decent performance everyone experiences. We also had our share of small parts moving, and the resulting parts remakes and broken CNC bits because of that slipping. The performance of ULTI-Board is a quantum leap beyond anything else we tried. I believe it’s literally waste of money NOT to transition to this product. Considering the many hundreds of sheets that are processed with one sheet of spoil board, and the major reduction in small parts moving we have experienced, the ULTI-Board has saved more money for our shop than it has cost to purchase it. Parts slippage has been as close to zero as we believe is possible now. Add to that the time savings we have from now extremely rare parts remakes, and the ULTI-Board becomes more than free - it costs us less than $0 to purchase it with the saved remake time, reduced raw materials, unbroken bits. Math is math - and the math for ULTI-Board is 100% in your favor!
