Why use welding fume filters?
Welding smoke and fumes are generated during welding and cutting operations and consists of a mixture of solid particles and gases. Inhaling these welding fumes can pose a direct risk to the health of your employees.
The deposition of dirt particles on your machinery can cause malfunctions, defects, and downtime. The loss of production time and the costs associated with repeatedly cleaning the workspace are unnecessary.
You may also face increased energy costs due to excessive ventilation of your factory hall, with the additional disadvantage of the environmental pollution caused by this unfiltered air.
AXO Filtertechniek can offer welding fume filtration in the form of source extraction and ambient extraction. We can also supply separate extraction arms in various sizes. Would you like personal advice or more information? Please contact us.
Centralized or mobile filtration system
To determine which filtration system is best suited for your situation, the workshop layout, the tasks, and the available space are important. AXO Filtertechniek offers a wide range of options, from stationary filters with just one extraction arm to central filtration systems that are connected to multiple extraction arms or are used for general ventilation and filtration solutions.
For professional welders who need a flexible solution, we also offer mobile filters with a self-cleaning fume filter. The units are designed to extract welding fumes on site in smaller spaces and hard-to-reach areas, for example in the middle of a workshop or in a remote corner. Our Mobile Welding Fume Filter is suitable for a wide range of welding applications such as MIG, MAG, TIG, GMAW, FCAW, and electrode welding. If you would like personal advice or more information, please feel free to contact us.
For the extraction and filtration of oil mist and oil smoke, a different filtration method is used. The KUBE Mobile Oil MIst Filter has been specially designed for this purpose.
