Welding Applications
MIG / MAG Welding
High-volume fume extraction for continuous wire-feed welding. Systems handle the intense, localized fume generation with source capture via extraction arms, on-torch extraction, or overhead hoods.
TIG Welding
While TIG produces less fume volume, the fumes contain higher concentrations of hexavalent chromium when welding stainless steel. Precise, low-velocity source capture is essential.
Stick / SMAW Welding
Shielded metal arc welding produces heavy fume loads with flux decomposition products. High capacity extraction with robust pre-filtration handles the coarse particles and high loading.
Robotic Welding Cells
Enclosed and semi-enclosed robotic welding cells require engineered ventilation to prevent fume buildup. Hood-and-duct systems with automatic dampers optimize extraction during weld cycles.
Plasma & Laser Cutting
Thermal cutting generates intense fume clouds and metal vapor. Downdraft tables with integrated extraction or slotted side-draft hoods provide effective capture at the cutting zone.
Brazing & Soldering
Flux-based brazing and industrial soldering release fumes containing fluorides, cadmium (silver brazing), and organic decomposition products. Targeted extraction prevents operator exposure.
Welding Fume: A Known Carcinogen
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified welding fume as Group 1, carcinogenic to humans in 2017. OSHA’s
manganese PEL is 5 mg/m³, and the hexavalent chromium PEL is 0.005 mg/m³. Effective source capture reduces exposure by 95-98%.
