In this article, we will be taking a look at the features you need to take into account in choosing the best extraction system to meet your company's needs.
A healthy work environment and productivity are two key priorities for modern companies. The goals are as follows:
Satisfy customers’ needs and expectations by guaranteeing high-quality of work and meeting the agreed deadlines
A cutting-edge welding smoke extractor can help achieve higher standards of quality and efficiency, and meet your company's needs and requirements.
Let’s take a look at which aspects should be taken into account before purchasing.
A fumes extraction system is a key support tool for all companies where welding is an integral part of the work process. Here are some aspects which should not be overlooked.
The fumes produced during welding can lead to potentially serious consequences for the respiratory system. For this reason, it is essential not to let these fumes disperse into the air, but rather extract them at source and duct them outside.
Our range of welding fumes extraction systems includes extraction benches which are used to remove the welding fumes. The various models of extraction benches meet a range of different requirements.
Choosing the most suitable type of welding fumes extraction system depends in particular on the size of the area assigned to welding processes, and on the types of materials used.
Fixed systems are advisable when the welding is carried out in a specific, delimited area where the operatives perform only that activity. These types of systems involve the permanent installation of articulating arms, extraction hoods of various sizes or welding benches, connected individually or in series to a fan which extracts the fumes.
Portable systems, on the other hand, are ideal when there is no one specific area dedicated to welding, and the technicians need to move the welder to different areas, as required. These are compact, easy-to-move units mounted on trolleys, complete with fan, filter and articulating arm.
For soldering processes, common when working on electronic components (in workshops and assembly lines), and in the electrotechnical sector for electrical joints, contacts and small connections, there are units available with extraction systems for soldering fumes.
In order to improve efficiency and productivity, the following are necessary:
For this reason, it is better to choose compact and manoeuvrable fumes extraction systems in order to optimise space and allow work to proceed faster.
Employees will be happy to be working in a modern, organised premises, and this will help attract new talent and improve retention.
