Metalworking & Mechanical Engineering Extraction

Specialist fume and dust extraction systems for metalworking professionals are key to ensuring that engineers and factory workers do not experience the damaging effects of these contaminants.

Regular exposure to the fumes and dust in metalworking can cause health problems both in the short and long term for employees. Many metalworkers have experienced sickness as a result of exposure to metal particulates. The results of exposure range from fatigue and flu-like symptoms to breathing difficulties and life-threatening illnesses.

There are a variety of processes in metalworking that create fumes and dust that need to be extracted. These include welding, grinding, deburring, polishing, buffing, etching, and more. Each process has a different set of hazards.

It is important to recognise and identify the potential threats, in order to prepare and combat them in the most appropriate manner. Vodex offers a wide range of pre-designed and custom-built metalworking solutions that can be configured to suit the needs of your working environment.

We work with you to evaluate your current processes and help you to deliver increased productivity and to protect the health of your production and engineering teams.
