Dust and Fume Extraction for Aviation & Aerospace
DUST AND FUME COLLECTION CHALLENGES IN THE AEROSPACE AND AVIATION INDUSTRY
A facility producing airplanes or their parts includes many processes that might produce air quality challenges.
Metal-cutting tables, welding stations and robotic welding cells create serious amounts of dust and fumes that can be an
acute problem for worker health.
Dust coming off a cutting table creates an inhalation hazard for workers, as well as an ignition risk if the dust is
allowed to build up. As dangerous as this dust is, it is perhaps surpassed by weld fumes. These fumes contain
particulates that measure less than a micrometer across. The small size of these particles makes it easier for them to
travel deeply into the lungs if inhaled.

SOLUTIONS FOR DUST AND FUMES IN THE AEROSPACE AND AVIATION INDUSTRY
LEFILTER air quality solutions are suited for this industry and its high standards of performance. Our dust collectors make your facility safer, healthier and more efficient—while working within your space and budget constraints. We’ve put a lot of thought into details like space-saving design, integrated fire safety and automated controls that let your fume and dust collectors practically take care of themselves.
LEFILTER collectors feature automated systems that ensure they run only when needed. This cuts operating costs and lengthens filter life. A manufacturer can’t afford the downtime that might come from a failed dust collector, so reliability and easy maintenance have been built into LEFILTER equipment. With advanced control systems, plant managers can move beyond preventative maintenance to truly predictive maintenance.
LEFILTER fume collector is well suited to an aerospace manufacturer and its need for efficient, space-saving fume solutions. For a bigger, more modular system, LEFILTER ducted system allows manufacturers to reconfigure their layout as their needs change. For applications where source capture is not an option.
