Every once in a while, a product comes along that doesn’t just add to your shop — it changes what your shop can do. For us, that product is AnchorPod — a patent-pending innovation that redefines how vacuum pods integrate with your bench. And it’s the centerpiece of our biggest release yet.
This launch isn’t just about one new pod. It’s about building an entire wave of tools and bundles that expand what’s possible with the SYS-GRP system. At the heart of it: AnchorPod and the FORG3D Launch Edition sets. Around it: smart, community-driven expansions like Verso, Max sets, and accessories like Argos and AnchorPlug. Together, they mark a new era in modular vacuum workholding.
AnchorPod: The Cornerstone
Vacuum pods have always been about holding workpieces more securely, more quickly, and more flexibly than traditional clamps. AnchorPod takes that promise and multiplies it.
-
AnchorDog mode: Lock directly into your MFT top, extrusion, or jig and treat AnchorPod like the world’s most versatile benchdog.
-
Gasket mode: Create a sealed vacuum surface for non-porous or delicate materials.
-
AnchorPod-Edition Pods: Designed for seamless compatibility with Maximus, and Magnus — opening up entirely new workflow combinations.
AnchorPod isn’t just a pod. It’s a platform — a way to anchor your workflow into the bench itself, then expand from there. Whether you’re cutting, sanding, routing, or assembling, AnchorPod makes it easier to trust your setup and focus on the work in front of you.
The FORG3D Launch Edition
A launch this big deserved something special. That’s why we built the FORG3D Launch Edition — limited-run kits designed to showcase the entire ecosystem at its best.
These aren’t just bundles. They’re curated setups that combine AnchorPod with the most powerful SYS-GRP accessories, so you can experience the system as it was meant to be: modular, scalable, and ready for anything.
Think of the Launch Edition as our way of saying: this is where the future of workholding begins. Once they’re gone, they’re gone — but the workflows they unlock will stay with you long after.
Argos & AnchorPlug: More to Come
As part of this wave, we’ve also developed Argos — your loyal bench driver — and AnchorPlug, a clean, clever solution for covering unused holes in your MFT top.
We’ll dive deep into both of these in a separate article, but know this: while AnchorPod is the cornerstone, Argos and AnchorPlug are the companions that make your bench more efficient and more adaptable.
Verso & Max Sets: Built on Feedback
One thing we’ve learned is that our community never hesitates to share what they need — and we listen.
You told us you wanted:
-
Easier ways to scale up workholding for larger panels.
-
Smarter ways to expand sideways for modular setups.
-
Bundles that made it simpler to get started without guesswork.
That’s exactly what we built.
-
Verso brings lateral expansion to your bench, unlocking new layout possibilities.
-
Max Sets scale the system up, combining pods and accessories into ready-to-deploy configurations.
As we were designing the Launch Edition, it made sense to carry the same bundled thinking forward. Verso and Max Sets are proof that your feedback drives the system forward as much as our design team does.
Your Workflow. Without Limits.
AnchorPod is more than just another addition to SYS-GRP. It’s the keystone that ties together everything that came before — and everything we’re building next.
The FORG3D Launch Edition celebrates that milestone. Argos and AnchorPlug extend it. Verso and Max Sets scale it. Together, they mark a turning point in what’s possible for makers who rely on modular, vacuum-based workholding.
This is just the beginning.
