Removing exhaust fumes from car workshop is required by law to prevent health hazards and to protect people working there.
The extraction arm is one of the essential elements of an exhaust system. How to choose it?
We will discuss about this in today's article, focusing on the Touchless arm technology, the universal solution that allows gases to be extracted from any vehicles!
Let’s discover why a Touchless extraction arm is the best choice
Every day, cars and motorbikes repair shops generate harmful gases that, if not removed immediately, can cause damaging effects on Technicians.
Gases are produced by vehicle mufflers, while engines are running during repairs.
When it comes to choosing an extraction system and its extraction arm, it must be taken in consideration that in a workshop usually Technicians work on different types of vehicles: cars, trucks, motorbikes and agricultural machinery.
The mufflers are positioned differently depending on the vehicle and the amount of gas produced by cars, for instance, is very different from the gases produced by trucks.
A Touchless extraction arm is an innovative, universal and ultra-versatile solution that can solve the problem of extracting noxious gases from any type of vehicles, regardless of the size and position of the exhaust pipes; this is the reason why it is such an important, effective choice for the workshop.
The principle behind Touchless technology consists of a self-supporting arm supported by a sophisticated system of springs and clutches, which allows exhaust gases to be extracted without coming into contact with the muffler.
The arm is suspended at a minimum distance from the muffler, so that gases are extracted avoiding any spreading into the surrounding environment.
This solution therefore eliminates the need for specific nozzles for different types of mufflers, resulting in significant savings in adapter costs.
Considering that cars are constantly evolving and have very different specifications, the Touchless extraction arm provides significant savings in the long run.
The time saving is also not to be underestimated
The Touchless extraction arm is supported by a combination of springs and clutches, making it very easy to use. The technician simply has to pull the arm towards the muffler with a sting, making it extremely comfortable and quick to use, especially when compared to systems that are connected directly to the mufflers. Being not necessary to change the nozzles makes this task much more easy, as technicians no longer have to change these accessories; in addition, it is possible to avoid damages to the bodywork that can be caused by little bumps during the connection phase.
Technicians can therefore work being more productive and efficient.
A Touchless system allows space optimization
As it is no longer necessary to have many types of nozzles, for each type of mufflers, there will be much more free space inside the warehouse.
This means that the space normally used for mufflers within the storage areas can be used for different needs.
Moreover, when not in use, the extraction arm can be stored above the working area without creating obstacles or hindering the operators' work. It is therefore a non-invasive solution, which helps to make the workshop much more efficient.
Speed, efficiency and quality are priorities features, it is essential to have a state-of-the-art machinery and tools that ensure maximum performance.
Touchless technology is a cutting-edge, versatile and high-performance solution that not only ensures maximum safety for workers, but also makes the workshop an innovative and modern place.
