The paper presents the optimization of the wood chips removing system in the sliding table saw. Chips are generated during the cutting of the material. The attention was focused on the upper casing of mentioned system. The methodical experimental studies of the pressure distribution inside the casing during the wood chip removing operation for the selected rotational speed of saw blade with a diameter of 300 mm and 450 mm were carried out. Analysis of the results allowed to predict the areas with insufficient vacuum pressure hindering the organized transport of chips. The obtained results were used in the process of optimizing the shape of the casing. As a result, a new design of chip removing system was obtained, vastly improving the chips extraction from the tool operation space.
