Camfil has provided container manufacturer AMG with a much more effective dust and fume extraction system offering higher filtration rates. A system that is also more sustainable thanks to reduced energy consumption and longer filter lifetime.
To increase their capacity to handle a growing production demand in Poland, AMG moved their waste container manufacturing to a new facility. They soon discovered that the air quality in the new facility did not meet local regulations or the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) for operators regarding exposure to dust, fumes and gases. They also required dust collectors with better performance.
AMG performs welding on large-scale applications where it is not possible to capture emissions by using extraction hoods or arms.
The welding dust in AMG’s operations is fine and flammable with high loads – in some areas of the facility it was above 10 milligram per cubic meter air. The dust also contains anti-splatter fluid.
To be able to present an optimum solution, Camfil carried out a thorough examination of the conditions in the new facility.
Thanks to Camfil’s Gold Series X-Flo solution, AMG now has a much more effective dust and fume extraction system. A system that is also more sustainable due to reduced energy consumption and longer filter lifetime.
