Wood dust extraction machines are used in areas where they may be a lot of wood dust in the air, such as in woodworking studios. They are an important safety feature as they remove harmful particles from the air that can cause respiratory problems. There are a number of different types of wood dust extraction systems available on the market, what you require ultimately depends on the production size of your workplace and what types of woods you are working with.
In a large scale woodworking studio a professional double bag dust extractor may be required. A high quality dust bag extractor will have a quiet motor so that it will not disrupt the productivity of your workers. The double bag system will ensure that a large number of particles can be extracted from the air, resulting in less time spent changing and removing the wood dust from the bags. There are also single bag dust extraction systems available for smaller work spaces.
Portable dust extractors are useful for people who are working in different areas of a workshop and don’t want to keep moving a large and heavy wood dust extractor around. These are usually floor standing and lightweight making them easier to carry. They are also more affordable than the double bag professional systems.
You may also need to install an air filter which will help to remove smaller particles of airborne wood dust. Air filters come with special brackets which allow them either to be mounted on a wall or on the ceiling. Some come with interchangeable filters so they can be used to extract smoke and smells from a workshop too.
Floor sweepers and bench sweepers provide an easy way to dispose of wood dust. A small pipe can be attached onto the woodworking table which allows for the dust to be swept away and stored in one simple move. Floor sweepers are great value for money but they may not be suitable for large production areas.
A number of accessories are available for wood dust extraction equipment including replacement parts for broken machines as well as flexible hoses, hoods, collection bags and additional fittings.
