Healthy Air in Metalworking: Extraction Solutions for Welding Fumes, Metal Dust, and Metal Chips
Whether welding, grinding, milling, or drilling, metalworking processes generate emissions every day that can affect air quality, workplace safety, and process reliability. AL-KO Extraction Technology offers customized extraction solutions for clean work areas, healthier air, and stable manufacturing processes.
Properly designed extraction technology helps improve air quality in production areas, reduce cleaning effort, and support stable manufacturing processes over the long term. The right solution depends primarily on the type of process, the material, the volume of emissions, and the available space.
Metal Dust and Metal Chips: Capture Them Cleanly Where They Are Generated
Dust and chips generated during grinding, milling, drilling, or deburring place strain on machines and work areas. Our mobile dust extractors capture metal and grinding dust as a flexible solution close to the workstation. For multiple workstations and larger production areas, our centralized filtration systems, which can be expanded modularly, are the ideal solution. Mobile industrial vacuums remove metal chips and clean work areas flexibly and as needed.
Important to know: For combustible dust, such as aluminum dust, certified ATEX-compliant solutions are required. AL-KO Extraction Technology also offers suitable systems for these applications, with the necessary certifications and approvals.
Effectively Protect Employees from Welding Fumes
Welding fume filters capture harmful fumes and particles directly at the welding workstation. In addition, we offer solutions approved for high-alloy steel. These applications are subject to stricter requirements because exposure levels can be especially high when welding these metals.
Coolants: Separate Emulsion Mist Directly at the Source
On turning, grinding, and milling machines that use coolants, oil and emulsion mist separators such as our AL-KO OIL JET effectively capture the resulting mist directly at the machine.
