Cordless dust control gets smarter with Milwaukee VACLINK
Milwaukee’s upcoming PACKOUT-compatible 4-gallon wet/dry vacuum adds wireless tool-triggered dust control for cleaner work.
Why it matters
Wireless tool activation can start a vacuum when a compatible cutting or drilling tool runs. That reduces the temptation to skip dust collection during short jobs and keeps the vacuum accessible on a PACKOUT stack.
The advantages
The concept combines cordless cleanup, modular transport and automatic activation.
- No separate walk to switch on the vacuum
- PACKOUT compatibility for mobile crews
- Wet/dry capability for broader cleanup use
Questions before buying
Confirm which tools and accessories support VACLINK, filter availability, hose compatibility, runtime with your batteries and whether the added electronics justify the price for your work.
