Most CNC machines come with a vacuum attachment which I recommend using. If your feeds and speeds are correct your making chips, not dust.

Thanks.

If the CNC machine does not have a vacuum attachment (if it's just a small hobbyist machine) are there best practices? And if it does, is a simple shopvac sufficient or should I be looking at HEPA filters?

I'm sure googling this will help you out. Mine only have vacuum attachments and filters.
