Laser and plasma cutting are two industrial applications that are used for a range of different projects. Laser cutting uses a focused laser beam that’s directed at the material to be cut, then vaporizes or melts it to create the finished surface or edge. Plasma cutting uses a jet of high velocity ionized gas that conducts electricity from the plasma cutter to the material. The work material is heated and melted, and the molten metal is blown away.
Laser and plasma cutting are efficient ways to accomplish many industrial cutting tasks, but they also create sparks and fumes that can be a danger to workers. These fumes must be captured and filtered at the source to prevent serious health risks.
The health effects of laser and plasma cutting can vary depending on factors such as the quality of protection being used, how long workers are exposed to the fumes, what types of materials are being cut and how much space is available in the immediate work area. It’s up to you to train operators and educate them about the hazards of laser and plasma cutting, in order to minimize the risk.
Installing high quality Downdraft Tables as part of your production process will provide workers with a safe environment to accomplish their work, while ensuring a high level of quality and performance to which you’ve grown accustomed.
Downdraft Booths, Dust Booths or Backdraft Tables are workstations with built-in ventilation to capture and filter dust, smoke, and fumes and then return clean air to a shop floor which can eliminate costly exhaust and air makeup systems.
Cartridge Dust Collectors are versatile machines capable of collecting dust and smoke from multiple sources throughout a factory. They can either be situated indoors or outdoors and use duct work to capture and convey particulate.
At Diversitech, our air ventilation and filtration solutions enable you to filter hazardous fumes, at the source. Our range of dust collectors work well for filtering smoke and fumes from plasma cutting.
All of our ventilation and filtration solutions meet required regulatory guidelines, so you can feel confident that the equipment you place in your workspace will protect your workers and the workspace itself. Contact us today to speak with a Diversitech team member about which option is best for your needs. We will go through the options with you, and help find the most practical solution.
